单选题 FILM PREVIEWS
In the Line of Fire
After his Oscar success as an aging cowboy in Unforgotten, Clint Eastwood plays an aging secret-service man in this action movie.

When a madman, played by John Malkovich, says that he will kill the present President, Horrigan is given the chance to redeem himself.
Sleepless in Seattle
A very interesting film from Nora Ephron, the writer-director of When Harry Met Sally. One Christmas, a little boy, who has just lost his mother, calls a national radio station to find a new wife for his dad, played by Tom Hanks. When a radio-reporter hears the program, she is sure that she has found the man of her dream and spends the rest of the film in an eager search for him.

Tom Cruise plays a young lawyer, Mitch McDeere, who finds out that several members of his new law firm have died. When an FBI man finds out that the firm is run by the Mafia(黑手党), Mitch is offered a job as an undercover agent(便衣特工), who will pretend to work for one side while working for another, However, he refuses and thinks up a way neither to follow the FBI nor the Mafia.
