Filmed in the coal country of West Virginia, "Matewan" celebrates labor organizing in the context of a 1920s work stoppage. Union organizer, Joe Kenehan, a scab named "Few Clothes" Johnson and a sympathetic mayor and police chief heroically fight the power represented by a coal company and Matewan's vested interests so that justice and workers' rights need not take a back seat to squalid working conditions, exploitation and the bottom line.
Dir. John Sayles · With Chris Cooper, James Earl Jones, Mary McDonnell

Dir. Jay Roach · With Bryan Cranston, Anthony Mackie, Melissa Leo

During a routine prison work detail, convict Piper is chained to Dodge, a cyberhacker, when gunfire breaks out.

Dir. Kevin Hooks · With Laurence Fishburne, Stephen Baldwin, Salma Hayek Pinault
