SUMMARY:Lucky - 4PM
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nLucky\nMonday\, October 16\, 4:00 pm\nUptown Theatre\, 55 Dunlop St. W.\, Barrie\, screen 1 \nDirected by: John Carroll Lynch\nCast: Harry Dean Stanton\, Ron Livingston\, Ed Begley Jr.\,\nTom Skerritt and David Lynch\nUSA / 2017 / Drama / 14A for coarse language / 86 min. \n  \n“Everything Harry Dean Stanton has done in his career\, and his life\, has brought him to his moment of triumph in “Lucky\,” an unassumingly wonderful little film about nothing in particular and everything that’s important.” – Joe Leydon\, Variety \n“A beautiful showcase for the 90-year-old Harry Dean Stanton\, giving one of the best performances of his remarkable career.” – Brian Tallerico\, RogerEbert.com \n  \nLucky follows the spiritual journey of a 90-year-old atheist and the quirky characters that inhabit his off the map desert town. Having out lived and out smoked all of his contemporaries\, the fiercely independent Lucky finds himself at the precipice of life\, thrust into a journey of self exploration\, leading towards that which is so often unattainable: enlightenment. \nAcclaimed character actor John Carroll Lynch’s directorial debut Lucky\, is at once a love letter to the life and career of Harry Dean Stanton as well as a meditation on morality\, loneliness\, spirituality\, and human connection. \n  \nAwards: \nWON – Prize of Ecumenical Jury\, Locarno International Film Festival\, 2017\nNOMINATED – Best Film\, Locarno International Film Festival\, 2017\nNOMINATED – Best Narrative Feature\, Melbourne International Film Festival\, 2017\nNOMINATED – Best Narrative Feature\, Oak Cliff Film Festival\, 2017\nNOMINATED – Adam Yauch Hörnblowér Award\, SWSW Film Festival\, 2017 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”vimeo” video_url=”https://vimeo.com/225453594″ video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

Shy Cathleen finds her place there and by the time she’s 17\, she wants to become a nun and enters a convent. However\, while studying to be a nun under the direction of the extremely strict Reverend Mother (Melissa Leo)\, there’s an upheaval within the Church as new directions come from Rome. At the same time\, Cathleen (Margaret Qualley) begins to find her dedication and beliefs wavering. \n  \nAwards:\nWON – Special Jury Prize\, Breakout Director\, Sundance Film Festival\, 2017\nNOMINATED – Grand Jury Prize\, Dramatic\, Sundance Film Festival\, 2017\nINTERNATIONAL PREMIERE – Toronto International Film Festival\, 2017 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4bDeeZoy_M” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]
