EAT PRAY LOVE (PG-13)  140min   5:30 and 8:30
Liz Gilbert (Julia Roberts) had everything a modern woman is supposed to dream of having a husband, a house, a successful career yet, like so many others, she found herself lost, confused, and searching for what she really wanted in life.   Newly, painfully divorced and at a crossroads, Gilbert steps out of her comfort zone, risking everything to change her life, embarking on a journey around the world that becomes a quest for self-discovery.  In her picturesque travels, she discovers the true pleasure of nourishment by eating in Italy; the power of prayer in India, and, finally and unexpectedly, the inner peace and balance of true love (with Javier Bardem) in Bali.   This romantic drama, based upon the bestselling memoir by Elizabeth Gilbert, is directed by Ryan Murphy.
