ABOUT THE FILMS: COP LAND, 1997, Paramount, 105 min, USA, Dir: James Mangold. Sylvester Stallone stars as Freddy Heflin, the sheriff of a place everyone calls “Cop Land,” a small and seemingly peaceful town populated by the big-city police officers he’s long admired. Yet when Freddy uncovers a massive, deadly conspiracy among these local residents, he is forced to take action and make a dangerous choice between protecting his idols and upholding the law. Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel, and Ray Liotta head an incredible cast in James Mangold’s intense thriller. FORMAT: 35mm IDENTITY, 2003, Sony Repertory, 90 min, USA, Dir: James Mangold. Ten strangers with secrets are brought together in a savage rainstorm: A limo driver (John Cusack), an ’80s TV star (Rebecca DeMornay), a cop (Ray Liotta) who is transporting a killer (Jake Busey), a call girl (Amanda Peet), a pair of newlyweds (Clea DuVall and William Lee Scott) and a family in crisis (John C. McGinley, Leila Kenzle, Bret Loehr), all take shelter at a desolate motel run by a nervous night manager (John Hawkes). Relief in finding shelter is quickly replaced with fear as the ten travelers begin to die, one by one. They soon realize that, if they are to survive, they’ll have to uncover the secret that has brought them all together. FORMAT: 35mm
