Do we have free-will over our actions or do the unseen Fates manipulate us to keep things going according to a master plan?  In his directing debut, screenwriter George Nolfi (Ocean�s Twelve, Bourne Ultimatum) adapts a Philip K. Dick short story making an entertaining science-fiction action thriller with a believable and refreshing romantic energy.  Matt Damon and Emily Blunt share great chemistry as an ambitious but recently knocked-down US Representative, and the woman he unexpectedly meets and feels is his soul mate.  He soon discovers a mysterious group of Men in Hats (fedoras) whose job is to keep them apart, so that predestined events can unfold. 

Fri March 25 - Mon March 28
BARNEY�S VERSION (R)  132min  5:30 and 8:15
Paul Giamatti (American Splendor, Sideways) won the Golden Globe for his standout performance of four decades in the life of Barney Panofsky.  This fun and engaging comedy-drama follows the loves and life of this hard-living, Montreal-based soap opera producer, three times married, who is accused of murder late in life.  Based on the semi-autobiographical novel by late Canadian author Mordecai Richler, this debut feature from TV director Richard J. Lewis highlights outstanding supporting work by Rosamund Pike (Made in Dagenham) as the love of his life, and Dustin Hoffman as his rapscallion father.

Tues March 29 - Thurs March 31
OUTSIDE THE LAW  (NR)  137 min  [in FRENCH with subtitles]   5:30 and 8:15
Algeria�s Oscar-nominated film for Best Foreign Language film, from previously nominated director Rachid Bouchareb (2002�s Days of Glory) is a decades-spanning historical action epic set against the backdrop of the Algerian war of independence from France after WW2.  The personal career paths of three brothers are intertwined as they work towards freedom for themselves and their people, their losses beginning when their family is evicted by the French from their ancestral land when they are children.  One brother joins the French military as a soldier fighting in Indochina, another becomes a wealthy but shady boxing promoter in Paris, and the third is a revolutionary helping organize the resistance.
