	USATODAY.com - Action film star Charles Bronson dead at 81
		Among his films abroad was a hit spaghetti western, "Once Upon a Time in the West." Finally Hollywood took notice.
		The titles indicate the nature of the films: lots of action, shooting, dead bodies.
		LOS ANGELES (AP) — Charles Bronson, the Pennsylvania coal miner who drifted into films as a villain and became a hard-faced action star, notably in the popular Death Wish vengeance movies, has died.

	SoundtrackNet : Breakout
		In 1975, Jerry Goldsmith wrote a score for a neat action film called Breakout.
		Starring Charles Bronson as a bush pilot who frees Robert Duvall from a seedy Mexican prison, the score to Breakout required Goldsmith to include many "South of the Border" instrumentations as well as traditional (for 1975, at least) action cues.

	Speed (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Speed is a 1994 film directed by Jan de Bont, starring Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock (her breakout role), Jeff Daniels and Dennis Hopper.
		The film is often cited as an excellent example of a high concept film: "a bomb on a bus."
		The jump, as well as most freeway scenes in the movie, was filmed on California's Interstate 105, which had not been officially opened at the time of filming.

		The game features several different arenas, from the standard "two column" standoff to the breakout-esque "wall" which separates the combatants.
		Flynn and Tron succeeded in their efforts, effectively dragging the MCP to the little garbage can icon, and the world was a happy place.

	cityonfire.com Musa
		Princess Buyoung is deftly played by Zhang Ziyi, who exhibits a good mix of the solemn nobility which should rightfully be intrinsic to her character and the pampered bitchiness that made her so despicable (yet so damned attractive at the same time) in her breakout film, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
		Although this is a very prestigious sort of film, actor Jung Woo-sung brings an undeniably welcome and even more undeniably cool no-nonsense action hero/lone gunman "badass-ness" to the role, and he manages to do it without letting you forget about the humble position of his character in the grand scheme of things.
		It features dialogue in both Korean and Mandarin (with Zhang Ziyi once again being a native speaker surrounded by actors who were required to study the language for their roles in the film), and its mammoth cast and crew covered 10,000 kilometers of territory (mostly in the inhospitable desert regions of China).

	GreenCine product main - Niagara (1952)
		This film is better known for being Marilyn's breakout role than for it's status as a thriller, but a thriller it is. Its plot throws several good curve balls and even includes some mildly morbid creepiness.
		Visually, Niagara is shot in gorgeous Technicolor, even so, director Hathaway repeatedly contrasts shadow and light as dramatically as the best film noir.
		The beauty of Niagara is that we get to see Monroe before she's Marilyn, before she got pigeon-holed into her classic persona.

		One example is the breakout film of the period, Goin’ Down the Road, directed by Donald Shebib, which is the story of two friends who leave the security of their Nova Scotia town in hopes of finding a better life in Toronto.
		During the 1970’s, the “loser film” model became dominant in Canadian cinema.
		It is little wonder that Canadian films received very little attention during this period.

	FilmJerk.com - Film Review: Elektra
		While not quite the breakout film it should’ve been, “Elektra” succeeds because of Garner’s dedication to the character, and her willingness to go along with some rather outlandish ideas for a comic book adventure.
		The story is a shambles, but Garner’s steely commitment to character, and the film’s lush, unique locations are enough to power the film into an entertaining sit.
		“Elektra” is more of a physical workout for Garner than an acting exercise, but the character fits with the actress’s tightly honed sense of silent fury, and she survives the insanity that often surrounds her.

		The movie is 1967's "Point Blank" -- a film that's been hard to find even though it's been seen by the right people.

	UB Reporter: Buffalo Film Seminars announces fall lineup
		Allen's breakout film, this is the free-wheeling, stream-of-consciousness story of an inept, angst-ridden, pessimistic, Brooklyn-born and Jewish stand-up comedian and his unstable love affair with the equally insecure Annie Hall, a shy, flighty, Midwestern WASP and aspiring singer.
		Often considered the definitive "screwball comedy," this film features Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant playing against type in a classic battle of the sexes: a mad-cap, scheming, accident-prone society heiress, and a bumbling, absent-minded, nerdy paleontologist from a natural history museum.
		Suppressed by the Soviet Union and unseen until 1971, this film is a complex and demanding narrative about the responsibility of the artist to participate in history rather than documenting it from a safe distance.

	American Pie 2 (2001) Film Review - MovieWeb
		Tara Reid and Mena Suvari have arguably become the biggest breakout stars from the original; they were obviously the busiest during shooting and had to be disposed of conveniently for the sequel (Suvari's character is shipped overseas for the summer in an awkward, sitcom-feeling device).
		The immortal pie, of course, is gone, but there are plenty of foreign objects and luscious ladies to occupy the genitalia of the entire cast for a full hour and a half.
		The only thing that really interferes with the enjoyment of the movie is that all of its stars have made so many bad knock-offs of American Pie in the last two years that they've lost any sense of identity with the characters that made them so original and endearing.

	Shaft DVD at Video Universe
		The film was remade in 2000 with Samuel L. Jackson in the lead role, as John Shaft's nephew; Richard Roundtree stars in the film as the original Shaft.
		Having this film on DVD is as good as going to the theatres years ago,and was a pure joy to relive the days of the 1970's,if you are a fan and enjoy Shaft I recommend this film.
		Based on the novel by Ernest Tidyman, the film stars Richard Roundtree as John Shaft, a debonair, tough-talking private detective, who became a full-fledged American archetype after the film was released.

	Sin City
		The pulp film master says he'd like to contribute to the sequel to the Robert Rodriguez/Frank Miller breakout hit.
		Sin City is a violent city where the police department is as corrupt as the streets are deadly.
		In this movie, we follow three stories, the central of which is Marv, a tough-as-nails and nearly impossible to kill street fighter who goes on a rampage of vengeance when a beautiful woman, Goldie, he sleeps with for only one night is killed while lying in bed with him.

	The Avengers
		Initially The Avengers was designed to showcase the breakout star of Police Surgeon (1960), Ian Hendry, in the role of a doctor who, after the murder of his fiancee, joined forces with mysterious secret agent John Steed (Patrick Macnee).
		The network wanted a filmed series, so the show went on hiatus for nearly a year, reappearing on ITV in 1965 with new star Diana Rigg.
		While The Avengers is often considered part of the James Bond/Cold War cycle of espionage thrillers, it actually dealt less with international issues and more with changes in modern Britain.

	Ice Age: The Meltdown
		As much as audiences loved Manny, Diego and Sid— and the actors who voice them — the real breakout star of "Ice Age" was Scrat, whose squeaks, screams and other strange utterances happened to be voiced by that film's director, Chris Wedge.
		In the new film, from director Carlos Saldanha and the Academy Award® winning creators of "Ice Age" and "Robots," the Ice Age is coming to an end, and the animals are delighting in the melting paradise that is their new world.
		For ICE AGE: THE MELTDOWN, the filmmakers were determined to explore new facets of Scrat.

		This is touted as her big, coming-of-age, breakout role, and the film’s one-sheet hammers that point home by showing the alluring actress in a half-turn which prominently displays both her nimble hindquarters and perky chest.

		WHERE THE HEART IS always had a feeling that Oprah Winfrey was better at choosing restaurants than she was at picking books.

		For projection in movie houses, Tape House Digital Film took the PAL D-1 master and, using their proprietary interpolation software, recorded it onto Kodak 5245 negative at 2K resolution.
		As massive amounts of storage and computing power become more commonplace, the ability to treat film images as just so much data will become increasingly routine.
		Director/cinematographer Sam Bayer of HSI Mars shot Reebok’s "Breakout" commercial campaign (designed by New York agency Berlin Cameron and Partners) in 35mm, and then postproduced the spots with the latest digital telecine, effects, and editing tools at The Mill in London, where it was finished in PAL D-1.

	Filmtracks: Get Carter (Tyler Bates)
		Get Carter: (Tyler Bates) In what could be a breakout effort for its composer, Get Carter is a score that very much mirrors the sharp edge of the motion picture.
		The music, as an alternative to regular song placement in the film, is, in reality, a sort of extension of the alternative rock that can be heard on the film's sister album release.
		To that end, the music in the film functions like a heartbeat that propels the action to each climax, and then yielding to a new rhythm for a subsequent scene.

	Boundless: The Mummy Has Two Faces
		The Mummy Returns begins in 1935, a good ten years after the heroics depicted in the also-very-successful 1999 film The Mummy.
		The film is rated PG-13, for its intense adventure action and for violence.
		And for the overall list of box office debuts (holiday and non-holiday), it fell only slightly behind the $72-million breakout of The Lost World: Jurassic Park (Memorial Day weekend, May 1997).

	[KFCC] Joint Security Area Review
		The film jumps back and forth between the present day and the past, between the Neutral Nations Officer and her investigation on the breakout and the four secret friends.
		The first film to ever give me a glimpse of the Korean civil conflict was SHIRI, an actioneer that painted both the South and North Koreans as idealists on different sides of the political coin.
		There were obvious protagonists and antagonists roles in the film that made the South Koreans kind of like the "good" guys, while the North Koreans fell into a darker, more sinister light representing the "bad" guys of the film.
