Fri April 29 - Mon May 2 PAUL (R) 6:00 and 8:15
Tues May 3 - Thurs May 5 CARANCHO (NR) [in Spanish w/ subtitles] 6:00
and 8:15

Fri April 29 - Thurs May 5
JANE EYRE (PG-13) 121 min
Charlotte Brontë's timeless, classic romantic
drama receives a bold new interpretation in this
refreshing, wonderful adaptation. The confident
second film from Cary Joji Fukunaga (Sin Nombre)
stars Mia Wasikowska (Alice in Wonderland) and
Michael Fassbender (Inglourious Basterds) as the
iconic leads of the young heroine and her older
employer Edward Rochester. After an unhappy
childhood with a cruel aunt (Sally Hawkins) then
at an abusive boarding school, Jane is sent to
Rochester's sprawling estate to tutor his young
ward, and is treated kindly by his housekeeper
(Judi Dench). But the discovery of a terrible
secret sends her fleeing. She finds a home with
the family of preacher St. John Rivers (Jamie
Bell), but when he makes a surprising proposal,
she must make a difficult choice.

Fri April 29 - Mon May 2
PAUL (R) 100min
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost follow up their
hilarious spoofs of zombies and buddy-cops (Shaun
of the Dead, Hot Fuzz) with an equally zany
sci-fi alien comedy adventure. They play two
British geeks attending Comic-Con who embark on a
roadtrip across southwestern America to visit
extraterrestrial shrines and UFO hotspots. They
are travelling in their RV when they are
unexpectedly joined by an alien (Paul, voiced by
Seth Rogan) who has been held captive for the
past 60 years at a nearby military
installation. Paul now wants to go home, but the
federal agents have decided it is time to dissect
him for more information. His new friends decide
to make it their goal to get him to the
mothership. Complications with the inadvertent
kidnapping of a young Christian fundamentalist
(Kristen Wiig) don't help. Directed by Greg
Mottola (Superbad, Adventureland), this is a
silly, distinctly funny and quite sweet film.

Tues May 3 - Thurs May 5
CARANCHO (NR) 107min [in Spanish with subtitles]
This is an edgy and involving dark thriller from
Argentinean director Pablo Trapero. Lujan
(Martina Gusman) is a young, idealistic doctor
who has just moved from the countryside and is
now working in Buenos Aires as an emergency room
and ambulance medic. She works long hours to
establish herself in her new town, and the work
is seemingly endless. On her rounds she meets
Sosa (Ricardo Darín, Nine Queens, Secret in Their
Eyes) a temporarily disbarred lawyer who now is
employed as a personal injury ambulance chaser
scamming victims out of their insurance money by
having them sign over power of attorney (the
film's title means "vulture"). It isn't his
choice of work, and occasionally his morals get
in the way of his job, but he continues. Their
paths cross frequently and despite her distaste
for his current work, a romance develops between
them. But both have secrets that threaten their relationship.
