Summer heats up:

Coming to the Guild Cinema later this month, Steve James' documentary about Roger Ebert, "Life Itself."

Richard Linklater's epic real-time dramatization of kids growing up over the course of 12 years, "Boyhood."

A road trip in Iceland for a couple of aging American boomers, "Land Ho!"

Joe Swanberg is back, as quick as ever, with a strong cast (including Melanie Lynskey, Anna Kendrick and Lena Dunham) in a brooding holiday film being released in summer, "Happy Christmas."

If only for a glimpse of his wife, Lisa Bonet, the hulking Jason Momoa's Native American drama set in the West, "Road to Paloma."

A thoughtful drama about a teenager running his uncle's Mexican no-tell motel, "The Empty Hours."

A documentary about the minor league Portland Mavericks of the 1970s, "The Battered Bastards of Baseball."

Banned Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi follows up "This Is Not a Film" with "Closed Curtain."
