Miscellaneous
This week's @EchoChamberFP is a 'TWO Parter!' In 'Part One' we look at three very different films, two of which are from Antoine Fuqua. 'Urge' is directed by Aaron Kaufman written by Jerry Stahl. A weekend getaway takes a dangerous turn when a mysterious nightclub owner (Pierce Brosnanl) introduces a group of friends to a new designer drug. Stripped of their inhibitions, they start living out their wildest fantasies — but what starts out as a fun night of partying quickly turns deadly, as the island paradise deteriorates into a tropical madhouse. 'Infinite' is the new film from, Antoine Fuqua, Ian Shorr & Todd Stein, adapted from D. Eric Maikranz's 'The Reincarnationist Papers' for the big screen. It follows Evan McCauley (Mark Wahlberg), a self-medicated man diagnosed as schizophrenic because he’s plagued by memories of places he’s never visited. But just as he’s on the verge of a mental breakdown, Evan is visited by the Infinites, a secret society who informs him that not only are his memories real, but they are from all his past lives. The Infinites take Evan into their fold and help him unlock the answers to his memories. Together, they must stop one of their own, Bathurst (Chiwetel Ejiofor), from his mission to destroy humanity. Antoine Fuqua & Nic Pizzolatto adapt the Danish film (same name) 'The Guilty'. The film takes place over the course of a single morning in a 911 dispatch call center. Call operator Joe Baylor (Gyllenhaal) tries to save a caller in grave danger-but he soon discovers that nothing is as it seems, and facing the truth is the only way out.
