SUMMARY:Juliet\, Naked
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nJuliet\, Naked\nDirected by: Jesse Peretz\nCast: Rose Byrne\, Chris O’Dowd and Ethan Hawke\nComedy/Drama | 14A for coarse language | 105 min. | USA \n  \nSCREENING: \nFriday\, October 19 – 7:00 pm [GALA]\nSunday\, October 21 – 1:00 pm \nGet your tickets here! \n  \n“Like Ethan Hawke\, Rose Byrne is an actor who can do just about anything when given the opportunity.” – Richard Roeper\, CHICAGO SUN-TIMES \n“A sweet-tart confection that\, like lemon sorbet\, cleanses a palate gone sour from too many cinematic servings of the heavy stuff.” – Michael O’Sullivan\, WASHINGTON POST \n  \nAnnie (Rose Byrne)\, the curator of a small museum in a drab English seaside town where she was born\, is beginning to realize that her life has been stuck in low gear. Her partner of 15 years\, Duncan (Chris O’Dowd)\, aspires to be the world’s foremost expert on reclusive American singer-songwriter Tucker Crowe (Ethan Hawke) and spends all his free time maintaining a website dedicated to the mostly forgotten rocker. Crowe quit the business at the height of his fame and now\, pushing 50\, is living in his ex-girlfriend’s garage in New York and trying to make up for past parental failures by dedicating his life to raising his young son. But when Duncan receives the long-lost demo version of Crowe’s revered album\, it sets off a chain reaction that will change all of their lives. Duncan hails the album as a masterpiece on his Crowe-themed website\, while Annie\, frustrated by his obsession with the washed-up musician\, posts her own scathing review. She is startled when Crowe unexpectedly reaches out to her. As their friendship blossoms\, Crowe comes to London for a visit and the stage is set for an epically messy love triangle that inspires Annie to take the chance of a lifetime. Juliet\, Naked is based on the novel by Nick Hornby. \n  \nNOMINATED – Best Narrative Feature\, Nantucket Film Festival\, 2018 \n  \n \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwWKaYsNqBM” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

SUMMARY:Eighth Grade
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nEighth Grade\nWritten and Directed by: Bo Burnham\nCast: Elsie Fisher\, Josh Hamilton\, Emily Robinson and Missy Yager\nComedy/Drama | 14A for coarse language and sexual content | 94 min. | USA \nSCREENING:\nSunday\, October 14 – 5:30 pm\, Uptown Theatre\nSunday\, October 21 – 3:00 pm\, Uptown Theatre \nGet your tickets here! \n  \n“Eighth Grade is personal\, uncomfortable\, and lovely\, a slice-of-life look into current adolescence\, our reliance on social media\, and growing into oneself.” – Roxana Hadadi\, CHESAPEAKE FAMILY MAGAZINE \n“An achingly honest film about some of the ghastliest years of adolescence. Funny\, tender and endearing.” – Rafer Guzman\, NEWSDAY \n  \nIn his feature film directorial debut\, comedian Bo Burnham deftly encapsulates the awkwardness\, angst\, self-loathing and reinvention that a teenage girl goes through on the cusp of high school. Given that the 27-year-old stand-up comic achieved fame as a teenager himself through YouTube by riffing on his insecurities\, he is uniquely capable as the film’s writer and director to tell the story of Kayla\, an anxious girl navigating the final days of her eighth grade year. Like Burnham did more than a decade ago\, 13-year-old Kayla turns to YouTube to express herself\, where she makes advice blogs in which she pretends to have it all together. In reality\, Kayla is sullen and silent around her single father and her peers at school\, carrying out most of her interactions with her classmates on Instagram and Twitter. Her videos are a clever narrative tool that provide insight into her inner hopes and dreams\, much like an inspirational online diary. One of Eighth Grade’s biggest triumphs is in its realism. \n  \n6 WINS\, 3 NOMINATIONS:\nWon – Audience Award\, Chicago Critics Film Festival\, 2018\nWon – Truly Moving Picture Award\, Heartland Film\, 2018\nWon – Audience Award – Best Narrative Feature\, San Francisco International Film Festival\, 2018\nWon – Best Film & Best Actress (Elsie Fisher)\, Seattle International Film Festival\, 2018\nWon – Audience Favourite\, Sundance Film Festival: London\, 2018\nNominated – Grand Jury Prize – Narrative Feature Competition\, Dallas International Film Festival\, 2018\nNominated – Grand Jury Prize – Dramatic\, Sundance Film Festival\, 2018 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cjp0UMSh9VM” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

SUMMARY:The Wife
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nThe Wife\nDirector: Björn Runge\nCast: Glenn Close\, Jonathan Pryce\, Christian Slater\, Max Irons and Elizabeth McGovern\nDrama | 14A for coarse language and mature theme | 100 min. | USA/United Kingdom/Sweden \n  \nSCREENING:\nMonday\, October 15 – 4:30 pm\nSunday\, October 21 – 3:15 pm \nGet your tickets here! \n  \n“The Wife offers viewers a chance to observe one of the finest – and most criminally under praised – actresses of her generation working at the very top of her shrewd\, subtle\, superbly self-controlled game.” – Ann Hornaday\, Washington Post \n“Glenn Close has one of cinema’s greatest faces. With one look she can tell you everything while revealing nothing.” – Erik Anderson\, AwardsWatch \n  \nAfter nearly forty years of marriage\, Joan and Joe Castleman (Glenn Close and Jonathan Pryce) are complements. Where Joe is casual\, Joan is elegant. Where Joe is vain\, Joan is self-effacing. And where Joe enjoys his very public role as Great American Novelist\, Joan pours her considerable intellect\, grace\, charm\, and diplomacy into the private role of Great Man’s Wife. Joe is about to be awarded the Nobel Prize for his acclaimed and prolific body of work. Joe’s literary star has blazed since he and Joan first met in the late 1950s. The Wife (based on the novel of the same name by Meg Wolitzer) interweaves the story of the couple’s youthful passion and ambition with a portrait of a marriage\, thirty-plus years later – a lifetime’s shared compromises\, secrets\, betrayals\, and mutual love. \n  \nNOMINATED – Film and Literature Award\, Film by the Sea International Film Festival\, 2018 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzCeD7T_Uq0″ video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

SUMMARY:This Mountain Life
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n\nDirected by: Grant Baldwin\nWritten by: Grant Baldwin and Jenny Rustemeyer\nAdventure/Documentary | PG | 80 min. | Canada/USA \n  \nSCREENING:\nFriday\, October 12 – 7:00 pm  [Festival Opener]\nSunday\, October 21 – 3:30 pm \n  \n[btnsx id=”4880″] \n  \n“Breathtaking cinematography and brilliant aerial imagery.” – Alexander Rogalski\, Hot Docs 2018 \n  \nThe awe evoked by mountainous landscapes is universal\, yet few people ever venture into genuine wilderness. Living amongst us is a special breed of people\, undefined by age\, gender\, profession or background: for them\, the draw of the mountains is all-consuming. After months of preparation\, Martina and her 60 year-old mother Tania embark on a 6 month\, 2300 km journey which takes them from Squamish\, BC to Alaska\, through a relentless alpine wilderness. There are others who share a passion for the mountain life: a group of nuns inhabiting a cloistered retreat to be closer to God; a risk-taking photographer; an impassioned climber; a focused snow artist; a couple who has been living off grid for nearly 50 years: what is it that leads these adventurous people to sacrifice everything – comfort\, family\, personal safety – for such an existence? Shot in cinematic detail\, This Mountain Life attempts to answer the question and offers a riveting portrait of idealistic passion set high in the stunningly beautiful peaks of British Columbia. \n  \n \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qiw-c4K05F0″ video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

Based on personal accounts and stunning archive footage\, this feature-length documentary film sees Caine travel back in time to talk to The Beatles\, Twiggy\, David Bailey\, Mary Quant\, The Rolling Stones\, David Hockney and other star names. The film has been painstakingly assembled over the last six years to tell the story of the birth of pop culture in London\, through the eyes of the young Michael Caine: For the first time in history the young working class stood up for ourselves and said: “We’re here\, this is our society and were not going away!” \n  \nWon – Fondazione Mimmo Rotella Award (Michael Caine)\, Venice Film Festival\, 2017\nNominated – Best Foreign Music Trailer\, Golden Trailer Awards\, 2018 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEz2fIhB6ok” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

SUMMARY:The Happy Prince
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nThe Happy Prince\nWritten and Directed by: Rupert Everett\nCast: Rupert Everett\, Colin Firth\, Colin Morgan\, Edwin Thomas\, Emily Watson\nDrama/History\, 14A for sexual content\, nudity\, coarse language\, violence\, drug use | 104 min. | English/Italian/French with English subtitles | United Kingdom/Italy/Belgium/Germany \n  \nSCREENING:\nSaturday\, October 20 – 7:30 pm\nSunday\, October 21 – 6:00 pm \nGet your tickets here! \n  \n“The Happy Prince proves that a film can be both bleak and warm-spirited\, as befits its mighty subject.” – David Edelstein\, NEW YORK MAGAZINE/VULTURE \n“As a director\, Everett is sometimes heavy-handed\, but the performances\, and the undeniable injustice of Wilde’s ordeal\, make for a tragedy worthy of its drama-loving subject.” – Helen O’Hara\, TIME OUT \n  \nThe last days of Oscar Wilde – and the ghosts that haunted them – are vividly evoked in Rupert Everett’s directorial debut. Everett gives a career defining performance as Wilde\, physically and emotionally embodying the literary genius as he lives out his last days in exile in Europe. His body ailing and heavy\, his mind spinning\, he survives by falling back on the flamboyant irony and brilliant wit that defined him. As the film travels through Wilde’s final act and journeys through England\, France and Italy\, desire and loyalty face off\, the transience of lust is laid bare\, and the true riches of love are revealed. \n  \n1 WIN\, 2 NOMINATIONS:\nWon – Best Production\, Bavarian Film Awards\, 2018\nNominated – Best Feature Film\, Berlin International Film Festival\, 2018\nNominated – Best Costume Design\, German Film Awards\, 2018 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sPkicgSc6M” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]
