Tab Hunter Confidential (2015) Trailer
Throughout the 1950s, Tab Hunter reigned as Hollywood’s ultimate male heartthrob. In dozens of films – and in the pages of countless movie magazines – Tab’s astonishing looks and golden-boy sex appeal drove his fans to screaming, delirious frenzy, making him the prototype for all young matinee idols to come.
Bristling against being just another pretty face and wanting to be taken seriously, Tab was one of the few to be able to transcend pin-up boy status. He earned his stripes as an actor to become a major movie star and recording artist.
But throughout his years of stardom, Tab had a secret. Tab Hunter was gay, and spent his Hollywood years in a precarious closet that repeatedly threatened to implode and destroy him. Now, Tab’s dramatic, turbulent and ultimately inspiring life story has become an explosive documentary feature directed by Emmy award winning filmmaker Jeffrey Schwarz.

The Tree of Life (2011) Trailer
The Tree of Life
The Tree of Life is a 2011 American experimental drama film written and directed by
Terrence Malick and starring Brad Pitt, Sean Penn, and Jessica Chastain.
Watch the trailer!
"The Tree of Life" is the impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950's. The film follows
the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult
years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father (Brad Pitt). Jack (played as
an adult by Sean Penn) finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the
origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith. Through Malick's signature
imagery, we see how both brute nature and spiritual grace shape not only our lives as
individuals and families, but all life.
