[Reel Pizza] update Apr 5 - 11

Hi everyone

here is the plan for this coming week. 

Please note that we have a casting call on this Saturday afternoon (April 6) from 1 - 4 for Nancy Andrew's upcoming film that will be made over this summer.  “The Strange Eyes of Dr. Myes,” is an offbeat tale of a lonely visionary that is “part Frankenstein, part Busby Berkely musical.  The film will star Gunnar Hansen of Texas Chain Saw Massacre fame.  Dozens of extra roles and at least 10 speaking parts will be filled. Among the extras, Andrews is seeking dancers, swimmers, party-goers, “businessmen who own their own suit and are willing to kiss another man,” and “housewives who can knit and are willing to wear a bathing suit,” according to press materials.  For more information visit nancyandrews.net.

And below is our schedule of films.  Working on the program that takes us into MAY!  More soon.

IDENTITY THIEF   (R)  111min
Melissa McCarthy is a fearless and genius comedienne given her first starring role in this goofy, raunchy and funny comedy directed by Seth Gordon (Horrible Bosses).  Her portrayal of Diana, a shopaholic who uses other people’s identities and credit to finance her sprees is brazen, and the latest target of her con is hapless account rep named Sandy Patterson (Jason Bateman).  He finds his world turned upside down, and has to hunt down this woman and get her back to Denver to get his identity back. 

Fri April 5 - Mon April 8
SAFE HAVEN (PG-13)  115min
This Nicholas Sparks adaptation (Dear John, The Notebook), directed by Lasse Hallström (Salmon Fishing in the Yemen) is an affirming and suspenseful romantic thriller about a young woman learning to love again.  Julianna Hough (Rock of Ages) plays a mysterious woman who moves to a small North Carolina town and is reluctant to join in the community.  Slowly she gains the courage to start a relationship with a young widower (Josh Duhamel, Transformers) who has two children.  But dark secrets from her past intrude on her new life and she has to choose whether to move on or to risk staying.

Tues April 9 - Thurs April 11
THE GATEKEEPERS  (PG-13)  97min  [in Hebrew with subtitles]
Riveting and candid, this clear-eyed documentary features the six living former heads of Israel’s Shin Bet, the country’s domestic counterterrorism agency and secret police force.  These men individually and as a group share their insights and reflect publicly on the actions and decisions, both successful and failures, of this force from 1980 – 2011, as well as their position on a two state solution and why there has been no peace with the Palestinians since the 1967 Six Day War.  Director Dror Moreh was motivated after seeing Errol Morris’ The Fog of War featuring former Secretary of State Robert McNamara to make this film about the inhumanity of Israel’s recent history.
