MUMBAI: Movies Now will focus on Tom Cruise this month with its branded property, ‘Cruise Control‘.

The property, which kicks off 11 November, will air every Friday at 9 pm till 2 December.

The ‘Cruise Control‘ festival starts with Cruise playing an ex-army soldier Brian Flanagan in ‘Cocktail‘. Finding himself out of a job, he decides to take on a part-time bartending gig which leads him to Jamaica to start his own bar. Here he meets and falls for a vacationing beauty but when a wealthy woman propositions him, Brian realises he must choose between his dreams of financial success and what might be the love of his lifetime. 

Cruise narrowly escapes potentially fatal injuries after a sword was swung within one inch of his neck while filming for ‘The Last Samurai‘ coming up on 18 November at 9 pm.

He plays the role of an American soldier Nathan Algren, whose personal and emotional conflicts bring him into contact with samurai warriors in the wake of the Meiji Restoration in the Empire of Japan in 1876 and 1877.

Cruise Control is presented by Nokia in association with Bestylish.com, Garnier Men, Nivea smooth milk, Dove Shampoo and LIC.
