Among the 25 films selected by the Library of Congress to be preserved for future generations are the Coen Brothers' "No Country for Old Men," "The Social Network," Cheech & Chong's "Up in Smoke," and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre." The defending NFC champion San Francisco 49ers were eliminated from the playoffs before their game at Miami began on Sunday because of victories by Washington and the Los Angeles Rams. A Florida man has filed a federal lawsuit against Jacksonville sheriff's officers who severely beat him last year after he ran from a traffic stop.

Academy Award-nominated actor Edward James Olmos and director Gregory Nava add another film to the National Film Registry. Robert Rodriguez's 'Spy Kids,' 'Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan' starring Ricardo Montalbán and Cheech Marin's 'Up in Smoke' also make the list.

The movies, along with “Uptown Saturday Night,” “Mi Familia” and “The Social Network,” are among the 25 selected by the Librarian of Congress.

Twenty-five films spanning multiple genres and centuries, from 1885 to 2010, will soon join the National Film Registry.
