A Prayer For The Dying
Mickey Rouke is a Irish IRA Hitman who after a hit realizes that a Priest played by Bob Hoskins witnessed the Murder and therefore decides to protect him and his Niece from his former Bosses. Liam Neeson has a role also in a Film which by judging by it's cover, looks like it's an Action Packed affair but it's more of a talk/thinking kind of Film. While Rouke's Irish accent is a bit jarring, the Film isn't all that bad.
On a side note, this was on Talking Pictures, they've been showing some interesting mid 80's-early 90's Films recently.
Greedy
Kirk Douglas is a very rich mean old man who's family is jockeying for position in order to inherit his fortune through back stabbing and insults however when the realize that a younger woman may get it instead, they enlist a forgotten Nephew played by Michael J. Fox to help them. Nancy Travis co-stars as well in a entertaining Comedy with a twist ending you could see coming.
Gran Turismo
Based on the True Story of the 1st Gran Turismo player to become an actual Racing Driver. David Harbour is amazing as the gruff Team Leader who is tasked with getting him ready and Orlando Bloom is the brainchild of the operation. Djimon Hounsou and Geri Halliwell Horner co-star in a very entertaining Film in which you don't have to be a fan of the game or Motor Racing to enjoy.
