American Made
American Made is a new American biographical crime film starring Tom Cruise. The plot focuses on Barry Seal, a former TWA pilot who became a drug smuggler for the Medellín Cartel – led by the infamous Pablo Escobar – in the 1980s. At the height of its operations, the Medellín Cartel smuggled tons of cocaine each week into countries all over the world, and brought in up to 60-100 million dollars daily in drug profits. For a time, the Medellín Cartel supplied at least 96% of the cocaine entering the United States, and 90% of the global market. In order to avoid jail time, Seal approached United States government officials and served as an informant, and soon found himself in charge of one of the biggest covert CIA operations in the history of the United States – this is that story.

What’s Eating Gilbert Grape
Gilbert Grape (Johnny Depp) is a small-town young man with a lot of responsibility. His mother is so overweight that she cannot even leave the house anymore, thus he must be the one to care for his overly sensitive and mentally impaired young brother, Arnie (Leonardo DiCaprio), who has a knack for finding trouble. Every year, Gilbert takes Arnie to watch as tourists’ trailers pass through town heading to the annual Airstreamer’s Club gathering. This dull year is no different than any other, until a free-spirited girl, Becky, sets foot in town, shaking up the lives of Gilbert and Arnie forever.
