Releases of the week (Week 24)

Apollo 13 - To celebrate the 15th anniversary of the theatrical release and the 40th anniversary of the original Apollo 13 space mission, Apollo 13 launches onto blu-ray. Nominated for nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Apollo 13 is produced by Academy Award winner Brian Grazer and directed by Academy Award winner Ron Howard.
Stranded 205,000 miles from Earth in a crippled spacecraft astronauts Jim Lovell (Hanks), Fred Haise (Paxton) and Jack Swigert (Bacon) fight a desperate battle to survive. Meanwhile, at Mission Control, astronaut Ken Mattingly (Sinise), flight director Gene Kranz (Harris) and a heroic ground crew race against time, and the odds, to bring them home.
It's a breathtaking adventure that tells a story of courage, faith, and ingenuity that is all the more remarkable as it's based on true events!

Crazy Heart - Bad Blake (Jeff Bridges) is a broken-down, hard-living country music singer who's had way too many marriages, far too many years on the road and one too many drinks way too many times. And yet, Bad can't help but reach for salvation with the help of Jean (Maggie Gyllenhaal), a journalist who discovers the real man behind the musician.
