Before the frenzy of the Sundance Film Festival begins this week, the organizers of the Berlin International Film Festival have a few more movies to add to their cinephile heavy slate.
As part of the Berlin Special section of programming, the latest from Terence Davies (Emily Dickinson biopic "A Quiet Passion") and Kiyoshi Kurosawa (thriller "Creepy") are among the high profile titles that have been added. Meanwhile, Don Cheadle‘s Miles Davis pic "Miles Ahead" will make its international bow, while Michael Moore‘s "Where To Invade Next" will make its European debut.
