Fri Jan 2 - Thurs Jan 8
BIRDMAN (R) 119min 6:00 and 8:30
Director Alejandro Iñárritu's latest (Amores Perros, 21 Grams) is a critically acclaimed, unpredictable and fully entertaining dark comedy nominated for seven Golden Globe awards. Michael Keaton, in a role that in some ways parallels his own career, stars as a once famous actor who walked away from a superhero franchise who is now trying to regain legitimacy by staging a Broadway play, by adapting a Raymond Carver short story. His career and his fortune are both on the line, and in the days leading up to the opening, he struggles with his cast, family and his own ego. Co-stars include Edward Norton, Emma Stone, Zach Galifianakis, and Amy Ryan.  trailer

Fri Jan 2 - Mon Jan 5
HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY Pt 1 (PG-13) 130min 5:30 and 8:00
The tale of Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) continues in this penultimate adaptation of the popular book series by Susanne Collins, as she finds herself in the long-thought destroyed District 13 with other rebels, including District President Coin (Julianna Moore), defector-spy Plutarch Heavensbee (Philip Seymour Hoffman), image designer Effie Trinkett (Elizabeth Banks) and newly sober mentor Haymitch Abernathy (Woody Harrelson). They hope to convince her to become the symbol of the rebellion, while she hopes to save her friend and partner Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) who has been captured by the Capitol, is being held hostage and forced by President Snow (Donald Sutherland) to be the symbol of the establishment. It's an exciting, suspenseful and absorbing chapter in the series.  trailer

Tues Jan 6 - Thurs Jan 8
PRIDE (R) 120min 5:30 and 8:00
This joyous crowd-pleaser, headlined by Paddy Consadine, Imelda Staunton and Bill Nighy, is a fictionalized retelling of a true and powerful story. Set in Margaret Thatcher's 1984 England when her government was trying to shut down the striking coalminer's union, a small group of London-based gay and lesbian activists decide to raise money to support the striking miners and their families. Initially rebuffed, as the miners want nothing to do with the gays, these activists select a small Welsh village to aid and take their donation in person. In the infectious style of The Full Monty and Kinky Boots, this moving story of the creation of an uneasy coalition between these two disparate groups is funny and moving.   trailer
