The Contractor

The difference between what you’ve seen and what you believe you’ve seen can be enormous. Ballard (Lena Headey) sees the surveillance footage of her father’s (Charles Dance) murder and believes that James Dial (Wesley Snipes) is the cause not knowing he was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Blue Smoke

Often it is something traumatic that leads one into a choice of what you’ll do for the rest of your life. You find yourself frozen in wonder at what is happening and it becomes a raison d’être in your life. For Reena Hale (Alicia Witt) it was the fire that burned down her family’s restaurant when she was 11. After the firemen put it out, she sees John Minger (Scott Bakula), an arson investigator, working the scene, trying to figure out whether the fire was an accident or intentional, and suddenly knows in her soul that this is what she wants to do and be.

Cleaner

During my career, I changed job locations exactly twice. I had a number of other chances to take different jobs but the prospect of all the changes associated with new work was too daunting. A new job in a new location isn’t just a matter of getting in a car and turning left instead of right. There is the matter of friends from work and how to maintain the relationships, there is the matter of frequented shops for food and drink and minor purchases made every day, there is the matter of how to organize your day within your employer’s infrastructure. All this can lead to many awkward moments when you meet, by chance, someone from your old job after settling into the new one. Tom Carver (Samuel L. Jackson), an ex-cop who now cleans up bio waste, knows this well. He has moved on to establish a new career but the reception he gets from his old partner, Eddie Lorenzo (Ed Harris), makes him wonder whether any engendered loyalty remains or is he now just a citizen who should queue up like the rest. Or maybe Eddie just doesn’t understand why he had to move on.

Gone Baby Gone

What price are you willing to pay when you do what you think is the right thing and everyone else thinks is the wrong thing? Would you take a little girl away from the people who will offer her a loving and loved life? Patrick Kenzie (Casey Affleck) would. Would you tell the police about the child and take the chance that the love of your life will hate you forever? Patrick Kenzie would and Angie Gennaro (Michelle Monaghan) does. Would you let your client skip payment to you if you send her husband to jail and return her niece to her drug mule party girl of a sister? Patrick Kenzie would. Would you babysit for the child while the newly reunited mom goes on a date with some guy who thought she was cute on TV while beseeching the kidnappers to return her daughter? Patrick Kenzie would rather than hide the truth from the world.
