SUMMARY:Loving Vincent - 3:30pm
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nLoving Vincent\nSaturday\, October 14\, 3:30 pm\nUptown Theatre\, 55 Dunlop St. W.\, Barrie\, screen 1 \nWritten and Directed by: Dorota Kobiela\, Hugh Welchman\nCast: Aidan Turner\, Douglas Booth\, Chris O’Dowd\, Jerome Flynn and Saoirse Ronan\nUnited Kingdom/Poland / 2017/ Animation/Drama\, PG for mature thematics elements\, some violence\, sexual material / 94 min. \n  \n“Brings a poetic sense of tragedy to the last act of van Gogh’s life\, and fresh insight into the kind of man he was.” – Peter Debruge\, Variety \n“There are enough traces of the artist himself in the movie\, from his many paintings to the famous letters he wrote to his brother and benefactor Theo\, to please both experts and newbies\, who should enjoy watching his work come to life on screen.” – Jordan Mintzer\, Hollywood Reporter \n  \nLoving Vincent is the world’s first fully oil painted feature film. 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]

DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nThe Breadwinner\nSaturday\, October 14\, 2:00 pm\nUptown Theatre\, 55 Dunlop St. W.\, Barrie\, screen 2 \nDirected by: Nora Twomey\nCast: Saara Chaudry\, Laara Sadiq and Shaista Latif\nCanada/Ireland/Luxembourg / 2017 / Family/Animation / 94 min. \n  \n“The picture sings and inspires.” – Brad Wheeler\, Globe and Mail \n“The Breadwinner is a glorious demonstration of the power of myth to deal with brutal reality\, and the power of truth to animate myth.”\n– Steve Pond\, TheWrap \n  \nFrom executive producer Angelina Jolie and Cartoon Saloon\, creators of the Academy Award®-nominated The Secret of Kells and Song of the Sea\, comes the highly-anticipated new feature based on Deborah Ellis’ bestselling novel. \nThe Breadwinner tells the story of Parvana\, an 11-year-old girl growing up under the Taliban in Afghanistan in 2001. When her father is wrongfully arrested\, Parvana disguises herself as a boy in order to support her family. With dauntless perseverance\, Parvana draws strength from the stories her father told her\, and ultimately risks her life to discover if he is still alive. Equal parts thrilling and enchanting\, The Breadwinner is a timely and inspiring tale about the transcendent power of stories\, and their potential to unite and heal us all. \n  \nAwards:\nNominated – Best Film\, London Film Festival\, 2017 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KnJ5Zu1qEk” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n  \n[/col_one]

SUMMARY:Chuck - 1:30PM
DESCRIPTION:[col_one ] \n \nChuck (aka The Bleeder)\nSaturday\, October 14\, 1:30 pm\nUptown Theatre\, 55 Dunlop St. W.\, Barrie\, screen 4 \nDirected by: Phillipe Falardeau\nCast: Liev Schreiber\, Elisabeth Moss\, Jim Gaffigan\, Ron Perlman and Naomi Watts\nUSA / 2016 / Drama/Biography / 14A for coarse language\, substance abuse\, graphic violence / 98 min. \n  \n“Liev Schreiber is top-notch in the lead role in this funny\, sad and warm cautionary tale.” – Bruce Demara\, Toronto Star \n  \nHe was the pride of Bayonne\, New Jersey\, a man who went fifteen rounds in the ring with Muhammad Ali\, and the real life inspiration for Rocky Balboa. But before all that\, Chuck Wepner (Liev Schreiber) was a liquor salesman and father with a modest prizefighting career whose life changed overnight when\, in 1975\, he was chosen to take on The Greatest in a highly publicized title match. It’s the beginning of a wild ride through the exhilarating highs and humbling lows of sudden fame. But what happens when your fifteen minutes in the spotlight are up? Driven by a committed performance from Liev Schreiber\, Chuck is a refreshingly human tale of resilience and redemption. \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4i_7m753JBI” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[/col_one]

As their fame grew\, Tom and Tommy\, Scotland’s Golf Royalty\, were touched by drama and personal tragedy. At first matching his father’s success\, Tommy’s talent and fame grew to outshine his father’s accomplishments and respect as founder of the Open Championship in 1860 with a series of his own triumphs. But in contrast to Tommy’s public persona\, his personal turmoil ultimately led him to rebel against both the aristocracy who gave him opportunity and the parents who shunned his passionate relationship with his wife. \n  \nAwards:\nWon\, Best Feature Film/Nominated Best Actor (Jack Lowden) BAFTA Awards\, Scotland\, 2016\nNominated\, Best British Feature Film\, Edinburgh International Film Festival\, 2016 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FcSe6TuE-8″ video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n  \n  \n\n  \nSponsored By: \n \n[/col_one] \n[/fullwidth]

SUMMARY:Alone in Berlin - 7PM
DESCRIPTION:[col_one] \n \n[col_two_thirds ] \nAlone in Berlin\n\nScreening: Thursday\, August 17\, 2017 – 7:00 pm\nUptown Theatre\, 55 Dunlop St. W.\, Barrie\nCo-written and Directed by: Vincent Perez\nCast: Brendan Gleeson\, Emma Thompson and Daniel Brühl\nDrama\, 14A for mature themes\, violence\, not recommended for children\, 103 minutes\, Language: English (UK/Germany/France) \n  \n[btnsx id=”3204″] \n  \n“Gleeson shines here as a man of few words who channels his anger into action.”\n– Jim Schembri\, 3AW \n\n“It’s that juxtaposition – of the hellish against the ordinary – which gives the film its punch.”\n– Sandra Hall\, Sydney Morning Herald \n  \n“When Alone in Berlin reaches the end of its journey\, it’s the performances of Gleeson and Thompson that ensure we’ll never forget the bravery of Otto and Anna.” — Richard Roeper\, Chicago Sun-Times  \n  \nAdapted from Hans Fallada’s 1947 novel Every Man Dies Alone and nominated for a Golden Bear\, Alone in Berlin follows a couple as they mount a small yet surprisingly effective resistance against the Nazi dictatorship in wartime Berlin. After losing their son on the front line during the Battle of France in 1940\, working-class couple Otto (Brendan Gleeson) and Anna (Emma Thompson) find themselves disillusioned with the Nazi regime and frustrated with the war effort. Feeling angry and betrayed by the Führer’s empty promises and the substantial toll of the war\, the couple decides to avenge their lost son by spreading doubt and discontent across the German capital. Their postcards\, distributed in high-traffic public places across the city\, transmit anti-Hitler slogans to their fellow citizens. Their small acts of defiance rattle loudly enough that young police inspector Escherich (Daniel Brühl) mounts a citywide hunt for the postcard-propaganda perpetrators. Gleeson and Thompson have a genuinely moving chemistry with each other\, honouring the bravery of the real-life couple on which the story is based. Alone in Berlin offers a peek into the life of Berliners under Nazi rule and serves as a testament to the importance of resistance\, big or small\, against a totalitarian regime. \n  \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsDdCKL4jQM” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n  \nProgram is Sponsored by: \n \n[/col_one]
