This is what is happening at Reel Pizza this coming week. The next full
schedule of films will be arriving in your inbox shortly.
tonight is the last night for Johnny Depp in PUBLIC ENEMIES (R) at 5:30
and 8:30. It is also the last night for the provocative and informative
documentary on food production FOOD, INC. (PG) at 6:00 and 8:00. You will
really want to eat fresh and local once you have seen this well-made and
hopeful but scary film!
There is no "week-long" film this week. Both screens are split, so both
sides change titles on Tuesday.
See you soon!

at Reel Pizza):
HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE (PG) at 5:30 and 8:30
The two films playing from Tues Aug 11 - Thurs Aug 13 are
GOODBYE SOLO (NR) at 5:30 and 7:30
and
BRUNO (R) at 6:00 and 8:00.
Below are the film's descriptions.
Fri - Mon Aug 7 - 10
AWAY WE GO (R) 98min
This richly funny and heartfelt film follows the enlightening journey of
an expectant couple (TV actors John Krasinski, The Office, and Maya
Rudolph, SNL) who are feeling uprooted and are seeking the perfect place
to raise their impending child. They travel the US, visiting old friends
(Allison Janney and Maggie Gyllenhaal, both hilarious) and relatives
(including Catherine O'Hara and Jeff Daniels) searching for a place to
call home on their own terms. Academy Award-winning director Sam Mendes
(American Beauty, Revolutionary Road) has loosened up with this comic and
poignant colloquial road story of discovery about people you might
recognize.
Friday Aug 7 - Monday Aug 10
HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE (PG) 153min 5:30 and 8:30
In the sixth installment of the popular fantasy adventure series, the dark
force of Lord Voldemort is gaining strength in both the Muggle and
wizarding worlds, and Harry thinks it may be lurking in Hogwarts castle
too (what is Draco Malfoy up to, anyway?). But Headmaster Dumbledore is
more concerned with teaching Harry all he knows while trying to unlock the
Dark Lord's defenses. This includes learning a crucial memory of
Professor Slughorn, the new Potions teacher. Meanwhile Harry has been
made captain of the Quidditch team, and love is in the air for Harry and
Ron, while Hermione staunchly refuses to reveal her simmering jealousy.
Tues - Thurs Aug 11 - 13
GOODBYE SOLO (NR) 91min
This third film from independent American-Iranian filmmaker Ramin Bahrani
(Man Push Cart) is a touching and uplifting slice of immigrant life story.
It traces the brief but life-changing friendship between two completely
different personalities, a crusty white Southerner and an extroverted,
warm-hearted Senegalese taxidriver. They meet when the gregarious Solo
gives the taciturn old man a ride home one night, and the man asks if he
will drive him to a desolate mountain top in two weeks time and leave him.
Solo spend the next fortnight trying to re-engage his new friend back
into the world with his pregnant wife and pre-teen step daughter, with
unexpected results. Roger Ebert calls this "a great American film.
Wherever you live, when this film opens, it will be the best film in
town."
Tues Aug 11 - Thurs Aug 13
BRÜNO (R) 83min
After the success of BORAT: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit
Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, Sacha Baron Cohen hilariously brings
another of his provocative alter egos from Da Ali G Show to the big
screen. Again with his trademark stinging dose of sociopolitical satire,
he impersonates a flamboyantly gay Austrian fashionista traveling through
America and films his incendiary interactions with a wide variety of
people to highlight the absurdities of the fashion industry and the
prejudices against gays.
