The scene takes place in the Los Angeles, California. It’s the story of two brothers Derek Vinyard (played by Edward Norton, probably his best performance) and Daniel "Danny" Vinyard (played by Edward Furlong. Both are particularly clever and seem to be the pride of their parents, but the death of the father, shot down by a black drug dealer, will send Derek towards the Neo-Nazi movement and he will bring his brother with him. After many actions against the black community he will murder to black thugs (he will use a horrible and choking way for the first murder) and will be sent to jail. In prison his ideology has changed thanks to his experience in confinement and what he has seen. When he comes out he tries to prevent his brother from going down the same road, but it looks as if it’s too late. Danny has already become a white power skinhead. After discussions and arguments Derek makes him change his mind with his confession of what happened in prison. Every thing seems to be getting better but, one morning in the bathroom of the Danny’s college, a black Young man shoots down Danny, for having insulted him. The performance of the mains actors, are very appreciate by the critics and the customers.

Description: The Mask is a very fresh and dynamic comedy that can be as much enjoyed by children as by grown-ups. Synopsis: Stanley Ipkiss is a shy and introverted man who has a boring and unsatisfying life. Working in a bank, he is bullied all the time by colleagues and even by neighbours. One day, he accidentally finds a green wooden mask and brings it home. First, the mask seems totally normal and harmless but just when Stanley puts it on his face he is transformed into a funny and crazy green-faced creature with goofy powers; however this happens only at night. Wearing quirky and lavish suits, he hangs around the city doing whatever comes to his mind with no limitation, whether be personal inhibition or laws of physics. Through many tweaks and turns, including falling in love with the prettiest woman in town, being involved in a bank raid and chased by gangsters; Stanley may understand the real value of his own personality. -Channel 4 Film : “ The Mask is highly enjoyable -- if you can bear Carrey's constant tics and mugging.” -William Gallagher - BBC : “ Exuberant fun ”. -Derek Adams - Time Out : “ The design is bright as a button and the transformation scenes real eye-poppers, but the film's best special effect is putty-faced Carrey with his razzle-dazzle star turn as the affable Stanley and his manic alter ego “.

Plot: The film deals with the struggles of the white rapper Jimmy "B-Rabbit" Smith Jr. (Eminem) for being respected among his black peers. Awards: One Academy award for the best song (Lose Yourself), 8 other wins and 18 nominations Description: Jimmy Smith alias B-rabbit (Eminem) is a young rap singer trying to increase his popularity. At the beginning of the movie he was at a Detroit rap battle organised by his friend David Porter “Future” (Mekhi Phifer). He lost the battle without saying a word. Everything was going badly in his life: he has been humiliated at the battle, he left his girlfriend because she was pregnant and he has a miserable job. After quitting his girlfriend, he lived in a stinky trailer with his alcoholic mother Stephanie (Kim Basinger) and his little sister (Chloe Greenfield). Moreover, his mother dated with Greg, one of Jimmy’s ex-classmate who is a mess. Jimmy realised that his situation has not evolved since he left school, his friends and him were always dreaming of becomming celebrities but never managed to achieve their dreams because of the “Leaders of the Free World”: the opponent crew. Firstly he said that he was a victim of circumstances, he said he was unlucky until he realised that he was able to control the direction of his life. One day he asked the question to his friends, and Future (the leader of his crew) answered him that one day something huge is going to happen. Jimmy became angry and said: "All we ever do is talk shit”. He met Alex (Brittany Murphy) in a club. She was a young girl trying to launch a top model career and was optimistic. They started a relationship and she tried to convince him to take control of his life, and to make a demo with Wink (a friend of Jimmy who was not in good terms with Future). Jimmy agreed and he saw, in the studio where he was supposed to record, Alex having an affair with Wink. Upset, he punched Wink and left Alex. He decided to forget music for a while; he improved his attitude at work and asked for extra-hours. He was getting more responsible in order to earn money for his family. Future offered him to perform in another rap battle but Jimmy refused in order to work. Alex came to the factory where Jimmy worked and convinced him to sing in the tournament because she was leaving for New York the next day.
