[Reel Pizza] update Fri Jan 16 - Thurs Jan 22

Hi everyone
Below is next week's schedule.  Eddie Redmayne won a Best Actor - Drama Golden Globe award last night for his performance as astrophysicist Stephen Hawking in THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING, this week's week-long film. 

Also, I goofed; the running time listed for this week's midweek film, THE JUDGE, is (ever so slightly) off - it isn't 95min, it is actually, ummm, 142min...   Therefore, the later shows will start, not at 8:15 as advertised, but as soon as we can turn around the auditorium once the early show gets out, which will be around 8:30.  My apologies.

Enjoy your long weekend, if you are so blessed!

Fri Jan 16 - Thurs Jan 22
THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING
(PG-13) 123min  6:00 & 8:30
In 1963, renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking was just a clumsy PhD student of theoretical physics who fell in love with Jane, a beautiful student of medieval poetry.  Soon his diagnosis of a progressive neurological disease gave him two years to live.  But Jane stuck by him; despite the deterioration of his body, they wed, had three children, and were married for 25 years while she put her own aspirations aside to be his full-time caregiver.  Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker James Marsh (Man on A Wire) has made an absorbing, inspiring and moving romantic drama, based on Jane's memoir.  Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones give flawless performances in this breathtaking portrait of a marriage.  Earned 4 Golden Globe noms.  trailer

Fri Jan 16 - Mon Jan 19
NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM: Secret of the Tomb (PG) 97min   5:30 & 7:45
Ben Stiller and many of the original cast members, including Owen Wilson, Steve Coogan, Dick VanDyke, Robin Williams and Mickey Rooney, reprise their roles in this sweet, crowd-pleasing second sequel in the family friendly series.  Larry the night guard (Stiller) at Manhattan's Museum of Natural History takes his enchanted museum characters to London's British Museum to discover why the magic in the ancient Egyptian tablet that brings the museum to life after hours is fading, and to try to reverse its demise.  trailer

Tues Jan 20 - Thurs Jan 22
DEAR WHITE PEOPLE  (R) 108 min  5:30 & 8:00
This intelligent, slyly provocative and unpredictable satire of race relation in the 21st century won a special Jury prize at last year's Sundance Film Fest for young director Justin Simien.  In his feature film debut, he creates a microcosm of the Obama era as a group of four African American students navigate campus life and racial politics at a predominantly white Ivy-League college.  With complex characters, sharp dialog, and humor he shows intolerance and hypocrisy on all sides.  trailer
