MR. HOLMES (PG) 105min   6:00 & 8:30
Ian McKellen stars as the famous detective, now elderly and retired, living in a remote seaside farm with his housekeeper (Laura Linney) and her young son. He is trying to recall the unsolved case from decades ago that forced him into retirement, haunted that he got something wrong that needs to be corrected , but at his age, his mind isn't what it used to be. Based on the novel A Slight Trick of the Mind by Mitch Cullins, and directed by Bill Condon (Gods and Monsters, Kinsey) this is a well-acted, intelligent, riveting and gentle drama.   trailer

INSIDE OUT (PG) 102min   5:30 & 7:45
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! The most recent film from venerable Pixar Studios tackles the emotions of growing up. Riley is a mess when she has to move with her family from her comfortable Midwest home to a new life in San Francisco. And the emotions that guide and advise her – Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hadar), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling), and Sadness (Phyllis Smith), who all live in the control center of her mind - are also in turmoil, conflicting on how best to navigate a new town, home and school. Early word is this Pete Doctor-written and directed animation (Up) is one of Pixar's very best, inventive, magical, touching and very funny.   trailer

Sunday Aug 16th SIERRA CLUB SUMMER MATINEE SERIES
MERCHANTS OF DOUBT (PG-13) 96min  free  2:00pm
Inspired by Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway's acclaimed book, this satirically comedic, illuminating and thought-provoking documentary explores the deceptive tactics used by large corporations to undermine public policy and sway public opinion by discrediting peer-reviewed, scientific studies with pundits-for-hire who present themselves as experts but are really just obfuscators. Filmmaker Robert Kenner (Food, Inc.) starts with big tobacco which for 50 years manipulated prevented regulation on smoking, moving into toxic chemicals from big pharma, and now these spin-meisters work to fight against climate change. The Maine Chapter of the Sierra Club presents these free films to get people thinking about important issues.  trailer
