Pain and Glory talks about creation\, about the difficulty of separating it from one’s own life and about the passions that give it meaning and hope. In recovering his past\, Salvador finds the urgent need to recount it\, and in that need he also finds his salvation. \n  \n4 WINS\, 10 NOMINATIONS: \nWon – Best Actor (Antonio Banderas)\, Best Composer/Nominee Palme d’Or/Queer Palm\, Cannes Film Festival\, 2019\nWon – Prix du Jury/Best Actor (Banderas)\, International Cinephile Society Awards\, 2019\nNOMINATED – Best International Film\, Jerusalem Film Festival\, 2019\nNOMINATED – Best Film\, Sydney Film Festival\, 2019 \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYOpDFw53zo” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one] \n[/fullwidth]

SUMMARY:Sometimes Always Never - 5:15pm
DESCRIPTION:[fullwidth ] \n[col_one ] \n \nSometimes Always Never\nDirected by: Carl Hunter\nCast: Bill Nighy\, Sam Riley\, Alice Rowe\, Tim McInnerny\, Jenny Agutter\nComedy/Drama/Mystery | PG for coarse language | 91 min. | United Kingdom \n  \nClick Here to Buy Tickets \nSCREENING:\nSaturday\, October 19 – 5:15 pm\nSunday\, October 27 – 6:30 pm \n  \n“A distinct\, articulate pleasure.” – Peter Bradshaw\, The Guardian \n“The kind of role Nighy was born to play.” – Joni Blyth – One Room With a View \n  \n“Screenwriter Frank Cottrell Boyce\, who adapted the film from his own short story\, has crafted a joy of a script\, which seeds its themes as elegantly as Nighy’s character\, Alan\, a Scrabble-obsessed tailor\, wears his suits.” – Wendy Ide\, Observer (UK) \nAble to blend charming gruffness and winning affability with just the raise of an eyebrow\, Bill Nighy has long proven himself one of Britain’s best character actors\, and now he stars alongside Sam Riley and Alice Lowe in this stylish and heartfelt comedy-drama about a tailor searching for a lost son. Sharp of both suit and vocabulary\, Nighy (The Bookshop)\, is winningly deadpan as Scrabble-obsessed Merseyside tailor Alan\, whose eldest son Michael stormed out of the house after a particularly heated round of the popular board game\, never to return. Years later\, Alan and his other son Peter (Sam Riley) continue the search while trying to repair their own strained relationship. Working from a witty and astute script by veteran screenwriter Frank Cottrell-Boyce (The Railway Man\, Goodbye Christopher Robin)\, director Carl Hunter deploys a vivid visual style and striking production design to capture the shifting moods of a family who know plenty of words but struggle to communicate. \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22R-JQRov_U” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one] \n[/fullwidth]

Eaton and producer Cameron Crowe coaxes singer-songwriter Crosby – a member of three major groups in music history: The Byrds; Crosby\, Stills & Nash; and Crosby\, Stills\, Nash & Young – into unflinching candour as he confronts his mortality and assesses the damage of earlier days. At the same time\, his redemptive journey back to performing is universally inspiring and uplifting\, bearing an emotional impact that transcends the rock documentary genre. Taking viewers through soaring career highs\, along with the chemical variety that led to ravaging addictions and serious prison time\, this intimate cinematic portrait explodes myths and sheds profound new light on all the music\, politics\, and personalities encountered on his incredible — and ongoing — journey. \n  \n1 Win\, 2 Nominations: \nWon – Best Music Documentary\, Boulder International Film Festival\, 2019\nNominated – Best Documentary Film\, Santa Barbara International Film Festival\, 2019\nNominated – Grand Jury Prize Documentary\, Sundance Film Festival\, 2019 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RL7X4dysyVI” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one] \n[/fullwidth]

SUMMARY:Willie - 7:30pm
DESCRIPTION:[fullwidth ] \n[col_one ] \n \nWillie\nDirected by: Laurence Mathieu-Leger\nWith: Willie O’Ree\, Ted Leonsis\nDocumentary | PG | 89 min. | Canada \nClick Here to buy tickets \nSCREENING:\nFriday\, October 18 – 7:30 pm\nSunday\, October 20 – 3:15 pm \n  \nIn a country filled with hockey heroes\, Willie O’Ree stands amongst the greats. In 1958\, he broke the colour barrier\, becoming the first Black player in the National Hockey League. Sixty years later\, his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame made history again. The youngest of 13 children and a descendant of escaped slaves\, O’Ree rose from humble beginnings in Fredericton\, New Brunswick\, to a 22-year pro hockey career that intersected with the civil rights movement. His talent on the ice was only a fraction of his impact on the game; in 1998\, he became the NHL’s diversity ambassador\, with a focus on creating opportunities for kids who never had a chance to lace up a pair of skates. In Willie\, everyone from his oldest friends to a new generation of players come together to honour a man dedicated to improving the world through a sport he loves.
