We will be hosting part of the town-wide Sale-bration on Saturday morning. Come sell or come buy!
Here are the films we will be showing this next week. We will be opening IRON MAN 2 on Friday night. We will not be doing a midnight screening on Thursday night/Fri morning. We also expect to be bringing back IRON MAN 2 on May 21st for another week, so it you want to avoid the opening week crush, it is presently scheduled to return then. Remember we are not equipped, as Ron Weasley's dad did to his car, to magically increase our seating capacity to accommodate all who might want to come to IRON MAN in the first few nights. Please be understanding of our limitations, know we will be doing our best, and remember we start to sell tickets at 4:30 the day of the show until we are sold out; then we will try to squeeze in a few more as there are seats available. Also, please note the odd starting times due to extreme length (both short and long) of the two Oscar-nominated films on the other side.
And Happy Mother's Day on Sunday to all the hard-working women out there who raise children.
See you soon--

IRON MAN 2 (PG-13) 125min 6:00 and 8:30
The highly anticipated sequel to director Jon Favreau's superhero blockbuster starring Robert Downey , Jr. (Sherlock Holmes) is sure to be fun and action-packed. As the world knows that billionaire Tony Stark leads a dual life, he is under pressure from the government, the press and the public to share his inventions with the military; but Tony is unwilling to divulge his secrets for fear the information will end up in the wrong hands. With Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) and James Rhodes (now Don Cheadle) at his side, Tony forges new alliances and confronts powerful new enemies. Samuel Jackson re-turns as Nick Fury.

THE SECRET OF KELLS (NR*) (*would probably be PG) 75min 5:30 and 7:30
Full of striking Celtic artistry, this beautifully hand-drawn, colorful, magical adventure was an obscure Irish Production until it became an unexpected but not undeserved Oscar nominee this past winter. Set in a medieval age of early Christianity, the delightful story follows a young orphan in the care of his uncle the Abbot of Kells (Brendan Gleeson, Mad-Eye Moody from Harry Potter) who is fortifying his abbey against an anticipated Viking attack. But when an elderly monk arrives with the news that the enemy is headed their way and carries an unfinished illuminated manuscript, the boy is glad to help even as he must enter the forbidden forest where he will find special berries to make ink. There he meets mythical creatures that help him on his quest, and his dedication lights his way even as he faces down his deepest fears.

A PROPHET (NR) 149min [in FRENCH with subtitles] 5:15 and 8:15
This Oscar-nominated and Cannes Grand Prix winning film combines a haunting prison drama, a gripping gangster saga and a powerful personal portrait into an extraordinary entertainment. Filmmaker Jacques Audiard (Read My Lips, The Beat that My Heart Skipped) has made a bold film that uses crime as a metaphor for power and life. New actor Tahar Rahim plays a young French-Arab petty crook who enters prison as a nervous, illiterate, and vulnerable kid, and, using his intelligence and attentiveness, is transformed during his lengthy stay into a savvy master criminal and a mob kingpin. He is taken under the wing of an older Corsican boss (Niels Arestrup, Bourne Ultimatum) who rules the prison, but only if he will attend to some dirty work, otherwise he is a dead man. Thus begins his education.
