Eye of the Needle
Description: From Ken Follett's best-selling novel comes Eye of the Needle, a heart-pounding espionage turned romantic-thriller set in the final days of World War II. Donald Sutherland ( M*A*S*H, Don't Look Now) portrays Henry Faber, a nefarious German spy alongside Kate Nelligan ( The Prince of Tides) as Lucy Rose, a stoic English woman caring for her wounded husband (Christopher Cazenove, TV's Dynasty) on a remote Scottish isle. Directed by Richard Marquand (Jagged Edge, Return of the Jedi), Eye of the Needle features a lush score by the renowned Miklós Rózsa ( Ben-Hur).

Salvador
Description: Director Oliver Stone's Salvador is an unflinching depiction of the Salvadoran Civil War as seen through the camera lens of Richard Boyle, a down-on-his-luck photojournalist played by James Woods (Once Upon a Time in America) in a searing performance. What begins as Boyle's attempt to rehabilitate a career slump soon transitions into a compassionate and soul-searching endeavor that will bring to light the atrocities of war. Cast alongside Woods in supporting roles are Jim Belushi (Thief), John Savage (The Deer Hunter) and Michael Murphy (Manhattan).
