The Love of Ulysses

Out of the blue--in the middle of a hot and dry Athenian summer--the married family man and hard-working accountant for fifteen long years, Odysseas, loses his job. Surprisingly indifferent, bored to death, and with his pockets crammed with severance pay, the freshly fired paterfamilias starts meandering in the bustling metropolis, only to find himself aboard a fast Flying Dolphin hydrofoil boat to sun-kissed Hydra. There, an elusive dark-haired nymph--the living embodiment of the ideal love and the fleeting youth--will lure Odysseas into a desperate and seemingly endless dream-like sequence, tempting him to embrace life. During the course of a single day, Odysseas' journey will go full circle to where everything started. Will he emerge a new man?

Best in Show

1 hr 30 mins
At the prestigious Mayflower Dog Show, a "documentary film crew" captures the excitement and tension displayed by the eccentric participants in the outrageously hilarious satire Best In Show. This biting send-up exposes the wondrously diverse dog owners who travel from all over America to showcase their four-legged contenders. Mild-mannered salesman Gerry Fleck (Eugene Levy) and his vivacious wife, Cookie (Catherine O'Hara), happily prepare their Norwich Terrier, while shop owner Harlan Pepper (Christopher Guest) hopes his Bloodhound wins top prize. As two upwardly mobile attorneys (Parker Posey and Michael Hitchcock) anxiously ready their neurotic Weimaraner and an ecstatically happy gay couple (Michael McKean and John Michael Higgins) dote on their tiny Shih Tzu, inept commentator Buck Laughlin (Fred Willard) vainly attempts to provide colorful tidbits about each breed.
