Starting on Friday 2/1 - Thursday 2/7
SWEENEY TODD: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (R)  120min  6:00 and 8:30
Oscar-nominated Johnny Depp and director Tim Burton join forces for a sixth time in this gloriously macabre adaptation of Stephen Sondheim�s award-winning musical thriller (with the composer/lyricist�s blessing).  Depp is the title character, a talented young barber unjustly sent to prison by evil Judge Turpin (Alan Rickman); escaping after years of incarceration, he vows revenge not only for the cruel punishment he received, but also for the devastating consequences of what happened to his wife and daughter.  Helena Bonham Carter co-stars as his eager, amorous accomplice; Sasha Baron Cohen (Borat) is a flamboyant, rival barber.  Full of black humor, impeccable production design, and gorgeous music, sung by the stars, this is a mesmerizing, gothic masterpiece.

WALK HARD  (R)  98 min  5:30 and 8:00
The ups and downs in the life of legendary, fictional country rocker Dewey Cox (John C. Reilly) become this latest musical biography, a funny spoof from co-writers Judd Apatow (Talladega Nights, Knocked Up) who also produces, and Jake Kasdan (The TV Set) who also directs.  This very silly, exuberant parody features double entendre laden songs, many written by Marshall Crenshaw, as it follows Dewey�s rollercoaster career, from his 1950�s teen-aged years, through his hippie era, into the variety show and disco years, through his downfall and eventual comeback.

I�M NOT THERE  (R)  135min  5:30 and 8:15
Multi-layered and impressionistic, this new film from director Todd Haynes (Safe, Far From Heaven) explores the many sides of the elusive and mercurial persona who is Bob Dylan.  Six different actors represent different phases and various aspects of his life from the late 1950�s to the early 1980�s.  Marcus Carl Franklin is the hobo troubadour riding the rails; Christian Bale is the political folkie in Greenwich Village, as well as the older born-again Christian; (the late) Heath Ledger dramatizes the years of his marriage and break-up; Cate Blanchette channels Dylan when he goes electric at Newport; Ben Wishaw represents the rogue visionary poet; and Richard Gere becomes the reclusive outlaw.  Taken together, this unconventional film weaves a rich and colorful portrait of this revered American icon.
