Centurion to Highligh LAFF June 25th

The Los Angeles Film Festival runs June 17 to the 27 and the event will host an assortment of genres including thrillers, documentaries, and epics like the film Centurion. The show starts for Centurion Friday, June 25th and this fable follows a Roman Legion in to the heart of a tribal rebellion that leaves few survivors. After the decimation of the Legion, due to an ambush, Quintas must save what is left of his platoon from a vengeful army lead by the Pictish general, Gorlacon. Worlds and armies collide in this film clip below, while the film's premiere at LAFF draws closer.

The synopsis for Centurion here:

"The Descent’s writer-director Neil Marshall employs his lean and muscular style of filmmaking to great effect in this hard-hitting, high-octane adventure starring Michael Fassbender as a never-say-die Roman solider caught behind enemy lines. The year is 117 AD, and the surviving members of a Roman battalion are fighting for their lives in northern England. Pursued by the savage Pict clan, this small band of men must make their way south, hiding when possible, fighting when necessary—and it’s often necessary. Swords will be crossed, heads will be severed, and the men of the legendary Ninth Legion will make it to safety, or die trying" (LAFF).

Release Date: Fri, Jun 25th 8:30pm (One Nite Only).

Directed By: Neil Marshall.

Cast: Michael Fassbender, Dominic West, and Olga Kurylenko.
