What to watch at cinemas

JAKARTA (JP): The holiday mood is still in the air although
many of us are back at work. Here are summaries of a couple of
movies currently playing in local theaters, including the much-
heralded Titanic, which may help you prepare for that inevitable
Monday.

DMZ, Dead Men Can't Dance. Cast: Michael Biehn, Kathleen York,
Andrian Paul. Director: Stephen M. Anderson.

The opening sequence show the failure of the CIA's special
force, led by Hart (Biehn), to detect the transportation of
nuclear weapons to North Korea. Capt. Victoria Ellis (York), who
monitored the operation, is ordered by her superiors to undergo
Rangers training.

After passing the training, Victoria and her platoon are
assigned to the demilitarized zone between the two Koreas. Here,
they end up helping Hart and Shooter (Paul) infiltrate a center
where North Korea produces its nuclear weapons, and prove the
involvement of CIA's corrupt officials in the operation.

Titanic (Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet) Director:
James Cameron.

The director insists that this isn't just another disaster
movie, but a romance. Expect both in three hours. On the doomed
ship unfolds the story of Rose (Winslet), an upper-class
American, and Jack Dawson (DiCaprio), a passenger in steerage who
boards the Titanic on her maiden voyage after winning a poker
game.

Rose is desperate to be free of her mother, a cageful of
Edwardian etiquette, and her ruthless fiancee. Jack is her
savior, who pours her with love in the brief life of the biggest
liner ever. Does Cameron spare the sweethearts in the 1912
tragedy? (ste)
