SPACE STATION 76
PATRICK WILSON & MATT BOMER
First to be presented in our Indie Films Sunday is a rather interesting science fiction movie SPACE STATION 76 which has already received some rather good criticism. With amazingly gorgeous and stellar cast featuring Patrick Wilson, Matt Bomer, Jerry O'Connell and Lyv Tyler it is a character driven, sf dramedy, which takes place in a 1970's version of the future, where personalities and asteroids collide. Patrick Wilson plays Captain Glenn, the space station's deeply unhappy leader, who drinks to forget a secret gay relationship with a former co-worker. Lyv Tyler is Jessica, that man's replacement, whose professionalism makes her stand out in a crew, while Matt Bomer plays Ted, a maintenance man who fills the void in his love life with a hidden stash of pot, and has fantasies about Jessica! Jack Plotnik directs. THE SILENT MOUNTAIN
WILLIAM MOSELEY IN WWI DRAMA
If you are more in the mood for something historical rather than space oriented, you might be interested in THE SILENT MOUNTAIN, adventure and romance drama to be released sometime this year. Starring CHRONICLES OF NARNIA star William Moseley, and Italian legend Claudia Cardinale, this is a sweeping war drama bringing a thrilling love story set in the spectacular Dolomiti Mountains at the outbreak of WWI between Italy and Austria-Hungary in 1915! Tirolean lad Anderl Gruber meets his very first love Italian beauty Francesca Calzolari on the day when the war breaks out between their two countries.
DID YOU KNOW?
It is interesting that the shooting of the movie went through many troubles: while shooting at the mountains both Moseley and a camerawoman were struck by lightning with her optical nerve getting burnt because she was looking through the viewfinder at the moment. Later on a battlefield set was destroyed and flushed into a nearby river by a mud slide.

'ALOFT' DRAMA
And here is something equally haunting and sad: ALOFT premiered at Berlin Film Festival starring Jennifer Connelly, Cillian Murphy and Melanie Laurent. Told in two different periods, the film sees Connelly portraying a struggling mother of two young sons who becomes a renowned artist and healer. Twenty years later, a journalist (Melanie Laurent) tracks down the son she abandoned, and sets up a meeting between them. Cillian Murphy plays the son as an adult.
