But being brave has a price\, especially when it means making a difficult choice between “never squealing” and speaking out. In the end\, Bea stops being afraid\, and in the process realizes that adults are sometimes just like kids\, that best friends can be much more than friends and that\, ultimately\, love makes you stronger. \n[embed_video video_site=”vimeo” video_url=”https://vimeo.com/228771247″ video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

SUMMARY:Brigsby Bear - 7:15PM
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nBrigsby Bear\nDirected by: Dave McCarey\nCast: Mark Hamill\, Claire Danes\, Andy Samberg\, Kyle Mooney and Greg Kinnear\nUSA / 2017 / Comedy/Drama / 14A Language may offend\, substance abuse / 97 min. \nThis is not suitable for children. \nFor Tickets click here. \n  \n“Mooney and his pals have created a love letter to nostalgia. Don’t dismiss this unorthodox ode to cartoons of old — it’s a treasure.” – Jeanne Kaplan\, Kaplan v.s. Kaplan \n“Brigsby Bear crushes the big blockbusters for entertainment value and for eliciting real human emotions.” – David Kaplan\, Kaplan vs. Kaplan \n  \nSuperfan James is obsessed with the clever if quaintly goofy kids’ show Brigsby Bear to the point of religiosity. A bright\, sensitive young adult still living at home\, he has grown up with this fantasy series\, and the program has grown with him as well — getting more complex over the years. But to say James’ intensely protective parents have kept their son a bit sheltered is an understatement. One dramatic night\, James’ insular world is upended. Through the disorienting but sporadically hilarious transition to a new life that follows\, Brigsby remains James’ security blanket and\, upon learning the series has been cancelled\, he adopts the old adage that the show must go on. Family members and authority figures fret over James’ fixation\, but by becoming Brigsby Bear’s new creator instead of just a viewer in the dark\, he finally accesses all the meaningful connections his life has lacked. By telling his story\, James repairs it — producing in the process an inventively offbeat and profoundly uplifting love letter to the redemptive power of creativity. \n  \nAwards:\nWon – Best Narrative\, Provincetown International Film Festival\, 2017\nNominated – Golden Camera\, Cannes Film Festival\, 2017\nNominated – Best Film\, Jameson CineFest – Miskolc International Film Festival\, 2017\nNominated – People’s Choice (Best Narrative)\,\nMelbourne International Film Festival\, 2017\nNominated – Grand Jury Prize (Dramatic)\, Sundance Film Festival\, 2017\nNominated – Audience Award (Best Narrative Feature)\, Sydney Film Festival\, 2017 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPgXQnlKxqM” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

A powerful and rigorously disciplined player\, there is only one obstacle in his pursuit of a record-breaking fifth Wimbledon championship: the highly talented but ferociously abrasive young American\, John McEnroe (Shia LaBeouf). \nWith three days until the tournament begins\, Borg trains religiously in his lavish Monaco home\, aided by his coach and mentor Lennart (Stellan Skarsgård) and girlfriend Mariana (Tuva Novotny). But McEnroe’s explosive confidence and wrecking-ball persona continue to infiltrate Borg’s ice-cool and normally unshakable temperament. With each man the antithesis of the other\, both players delve into their formative memories as the climactic tournament draws near and anticipation reaches fever pitch. \nVisceral and breathlessly tense\, the match itself – regarded as one of the greatest of all time – would mark the pinnacle of the ‘Fire and Ice’ rivalry between Borg and McEnroe; an exhilarating battle of personalities that set the world of tennis alight. \nWORLD PREMIERE – Toronto International Film Festival\, 2017 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APhWZS4LyEU” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n  \n[/col_one]

The film brings the paintings of Vincent van Gogh to life to tell his remarkable story. Every one of the 65\,000 frames of the film is an oil-painting hand-painted by 125 professional oil-painters who travelled from all across the world to the Loving Vincent studios in Poland and Greece to be a part of the production. As remarkable as Vincent’s brilliant paintings\, is his passionate and ill-fated life\, and mysterious death. No other artist has attracted more legends than him. Variously labeled a martyr\, a lustful satyr\, a madman\, a genius and a layabout\, the real Vincent is at once revealed in his letters\, and obscured by myth and time. Vincent himself said in his last letter: ‘We cannot speak other than by our paintings’. We take him at his word and let the paintings tell the real story of Vincent van Gogh. First shot as a live action film with actors\, and then hand-painted over frame-by-frame in oils\, the final effect is an interaction of the performance of the actors playing Vincent’s famous portraits\, and the performance of the painting animators\, bringing these characters into the medium of paint. \n  \nAwards:\nWON – Best Feature\, Audience Award\, Cinefest Sudbury International Film Festival\, 2017\nWON – Audience Award\, Annecy International Animated Film Festival\, 2017\nWON – Best Animation Film\, Shanghai International Film Festival\, 2017 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvpVKrNyyxk” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]
