MY WEEK WITH MARILYN (R) 99min 5:30 and 7:45
In an Oscar-worthy performance, Michelle Williams (Meek's Cutoff) is
extraordinary, enchantingly embodying the role of iconic film superstar
Marilyn Monroe in her heyday. Set during the 1956 filming of The Prince
and the Showgirl which famously united her with Sir Laurence Olivier
(Kenneth Branaugh) soon after her marriage to Arthur Miller, the story is
told from the perspective of a young assistant director, Colin Clark,
whose job was as liaison between director/star Olivier and heartthrob
Monroe. His memoirs of his time with these celebrities are the basis for
this feature film debut of London stage director Simon Curtis.
Friday Jan 20 - Mon Jan 23
LIKE CRAZY (PG-13) 89min 6:00 and 8:00
A British visiting student (Felicity Jones) falls for her American
classmate (Anton Yelchin). Becoming inseparable, they embark on a
passionate and life-changing journey, until she violates the terms of her
visa and is returned to England. Immigration issues keep them apart and
they need resilience in carrying out a very long distance relationship
where jealousy and betrayal loom, yet a true connection exists. This
semi-improvised Sundance Grand Jury prize-winner from director Drake
Doremus is a sweet, honest, inventive and irresistible romantic drama.
Tues Jan 24 - Thurs Jan 26
SILENT SOULS (NR) 75min [in Russian with subtitles] 6:00 and 8:00
The Volga region of West-Central Russia is a land where there are only two
gods: love and water. When Miron's beloved wife Tanya passes away, he asks
his best friend Aist to help him say goodbye to her according to the
rituals of the Merja culture, whose myths and traditions live on in their
descendants' modern life. The two men, along with two small birds in a
cage, set out on a road trip thousands of miles across the boundless
lands. But as they reach the banks of the sacred lake where they will
forever part with the body, Miron realizes he wasn't the only one in love
with Tanya… This was the most popular film in last fall's MIFF By-the-Sea
Film Festival.
