September 28 - Beginners
From writer/director Mike Mills comes a
comedy/drama about how deeply funny and transformative life
can be, even at its most serious moments. “Beginners”
imaginatively explores the hilarity, confusion, and
surprises of love through the evolving consciousness of
Oliver (Golden Globe Award nominee Ewan McGregor). Oliver
meets the irreverent and unpredictable Anna (Mélanie Laurent
of “Inglourious Basterds”) only months after his father Hal
(Academy
Award nominee
Christopher Plummer) has passed away. This new love floods
Oliver with memories of his father who – following 44 years
of marriage – came out of the closet at age 75 to live a
full, energized, and wonderfully tumultuous gay life. The
upheavals of Hal’s new honesty, by turns funny and moving,
brought father and son closer than they’d ever been able to
be. Now Oliver endeavors to love Anna with all the bravery,
humor, and hope that his father taught him.
October 2 - The Tree of Life
We trace the
evolution of an eleven-year-old boy in the Midwest, Jack,
one of three brothers. At first all seems marvelous to the
child. He sees as his mother does, with the eyes of his
soul. She represents the way of love and mercy, where the
father tries to teach his son the world's way of putting
oneself first. Each parent contends for his allegiance, and
Jack must reconcile their claims. The picture darkens as he
has his first glimpses of sickness, suffering and death. The
world, once a thing of glory, becomes a labyrinth.
Framing this
story is that of adult Jack, a lost soul in a modern world,
seeking to discover amid the changing scenes of time that
which does not change: the eternal scheme of which we are a
part. When he sees all that has gone into our world's
preparation, each thing appears a miracle - precious,
incomparable. Jack, with his new understanding, is able to
forgive his father and take his steps on the path of life.
The story
ends in hope, acknowledging the beauty and joy in all
things, in the everyday and above all in the family--our
first school--the only place that most of us learn the truth
about the world and ourselves, or discover life's single
most important lesson, of unselfish love.
October 5 - Buck
"Your horse is a mirror to your soul, and
sometimes you may not like what you see. Sometimes, you
will." So says Buck Brannaman, a true American cowboy and
sage on horseback who travels the country for nine grueling
months a year helping horses with people problems.
"Buck," a richly textured and visually stunning film,
follows Brannaman from his abusive childhood to his unusual
approach to horses. A real-life "horse-whisperer," he
eschews the violence of his upbringing and teaches people to
communicate with their horses through instinct, not
punishment. Buck possesses near magical abilities as he
dramatically transforms horses – and people – with his
understanding, compassion and respect. In this film, the
animal-human relationship becomes a metaphor for facing the
daily challenges of life. A truly American story about an
unsung hero, "Buck" is about an ordinary man who has made an
extraordinary life despite tremendous odds.
October 9 - Cave of Forgotten
Dreams
In 1994, one of the most
remarkable archaeological discoveries of the decade came to
light in a cave in Southern France, known as the
Chauvet-Pont-d'Arc: etchings estimated at around 30,000
years old. The date of origin made these some of the oldest
remnants of humankind ever discovered. Unsurprisingly, these
artistic remnants bore a precious fragility -- experts
asserted that overexposure, even to elements as seemingly
harmless as human breath, could severely damage or destroy
the drawings. For that reason, few obtained access to this
area. One exception arrived in the form of maverick German
filmmaker
Werner Herzog, who
not only obtained permission to film (with lights that emit
no heat) but did so in 3D -- a process that enabled him to
convey the textured surfaces on which the figures are drawn,
as well as the shape and depth of the cave's stalagmites and
other structures. This astonishing 3D documentary not only
provides exquisite visual detail of the cave (as
Herzog explores it)
but uses the visuals as a springboard to broader
philosophical questions about the nature of humanity itself
and the transience of humankind.
October 12 - Sarah's Key
Paris, July 1942: Sarah, a ten-year old girl,
is taken with her parents by the French police as they go
door-to-door arresting Jewish families in the middle of the
night. Desperate to protect her younger brother, Sarah locks
him in a bedroom cupboard – their secret hiding place – and
promises to come back for him as soon as they are released.
Sixty seven years later: Sarah's story intertwines with that
of Julia Jarmond, an American journalist investigating the
roundup. In her research, Julia stumbles onto a trail of
secrets that link her to Sarah, and to questions about her
own romantic future.
October 16 - Higher Ground
Vera Farmiga's directorial debut, "Higher
Ground," is a coming-of-age drama in which Farmiga delivers
a subtle, nuanced performance completely from the gut, with
equally strong and compelling supporting characters. Set
against the backdrop of the Sixties, when feminism reached
its
zenith,
the film expertly depicts the landscape of a tight-knit
spiritual community. Inspired by the resonant memoir from
Carolyn Briggs (who also wrote the screenplay) the film is
an exquisite study of one woman's internal struggle with the
primary love relationships in her life. John Hawkes, Donna
Murphy, Bill Irwin, Dagmara Dominczyk, and Joshua Leonard
round out the cast, along with Farmiga's younger sister
Taissa, who proves herself to be an extraordinary new talent
as Young Corinne.
Regular weekday performances
are scheduled for 4:30 and 7:30 with weekend performances at
2:00, 4:30 and 7:30.
Admission in $8 for adults,
$6 for seniors. Matinees admission is $6 for both seniors
