hi everyone

Here is the last update from Reel Pizza until mid-December.
As you know, we are closing soon for our seasonal holiday break.  Our last night is Mon Nov 10th.  We will reopen Dec 26th.

Remember  Reel Pizza gift certificates and Big Ticket Passes make great gifts for your friends and family.  Get them at the box office before we close, or contact us by phone 288-3828, US mail PO Box 625 Bar Harbor ME 04609, or email (lisa@reelpizza.net) for prompt assistance.  You can also stop by the theater (side door) mornings until 11/19 or after 12/10 and if my car is there, so will I be. 

Thanks for a great year.  Happy Holidays to all, and we will be back with you reel soon!

Here is what is coming to Reel Pizza Fri Nov 7 - Mon Nov 10; both shows run all days.

RELIGULOUS  (R)  101min  6:00 and 8:15
Known for his astute analytical skills, irreverent wit and commitment to never pulling a punch, political humorist and author Bill Maher (TV's Real Time, and Politically Incorrect) brings his characteristic honesty to an unusual spiritual journey. Maher travels around the world speaking to religious leaders as well as regular folk on the street, discussing the existence of God, personal faith and doubt, and the importance of organized religion in the very funny documentary directed by Larry Charles (Borat, Curb Your Enthusiasm).  Clips from Hollywood films about religion that punctuate Maher's points are interspersed with the interviews, often to hilarious effect.  Making it clear from the start that he is not a fan of any religion and does not believe in God, Maher has fun skewering people who do.   He uses humor--and lots of cynicism and sarcasm--to examine controversial theories and topics that people feel very strongly about, no matter what side of the fence they are on.

CITY OF EMBER (PG)  95min    5:30 and 7:45
Based on the very popular fantasy novel by Jeanne Duprau, this heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat, family-friendly adventure boasts an impressive cast and crew.  It stars Saoirse Ronan (Atonement), Bill Murray, Tim Robbins, Martin Landau, Mary Kay Place, Marianne Jean-Baptiste (Secrets and Lies), and Harry Treadaway (Control).  The screenplay was written by Caroline Thompson (Edward Scissorhands, Corpse Bride) and the film was directed by Gil Kenan (Monster House).  Set in an underground city that for generations has depended on a massive generator to power their lights, but now the generator is failing and the city is falling into darkness, the story follows two teens in their new jobs as messenger and pipeworker, armed with a mysterious box full of cryptic papers follow clues, maneuver around corrupt politicians and other unsavory characters and race the clock as they try to restore the light to their beloved city.
