Amelia
After becoming the first woman to fly across the Atlantic, Amelia was thrust into a new role as America's sweetheart - the legendary "goddess of light," known for her bold, larger-than-life charisma.

In the summer of 1937, Amelia set off on her most daunting mission yet: a solo flight around the world that she anxiously foresaw as destined, whatever the outcome, to become one of the most talked-about journeys in history.

Clyde Shelton is an upstanding family man whose wife and daughter are brutally murdered.

The Fourth Kind
1n 1972, a scale of measurement was established for alien encounters. When a UFO is sighted, it is called an encounter of the first kind. When evidence is collected, it is known as the second kind. When contact is made, it is the third kind. The fourth kind is abduction. In Nome, Alaska, a disproportionate number of the population has been reported missing since the 1960s. Despite multiple FBI investigations, the truth has never been discovered. When psychologist Dr. Abigail Tyler began videotaping sessions with traumatized patients, she unwittingly found some of the most disturbing evidence of alien abduction ever documented.
