A wallet lost and found opens the door to romantic adventure for Georges and
Marguerite. After examining the ID papers of its owner, it is not a simple matter
for Georges to turn the red wallet he found in to the police. Nor is it that
Marguerite can recuperate her wallet without being piqued with curiosity about whom
it was who found it. As they navigate the social protocols of giving and
acknowledging thanks, turbulence enters their otherwise quotidian lives. By famed
french director Alain Resnais, who received the Special Jury Prize & a Special Award
for this film from the Cannes Film Festival.
In French with English subtitles.
104 minutes
Rated PG
Stephen Holden - The New York Times
"Like its would-be lovers, WILD GRASS chases itself in circles as it scrambles
genres, examining, seeing, thinking, remembering, and imagining with a zany
awareness. In Georges's words: 'After the cinema, nothing surprises you. Everything
is possible.'"

Filmed in Tulsa - The story of handsome, unassuming small town sheriff's deputy Lou
Ford (Casey Affleck). A quiet charmer of his idyllic West Texas town, Ford has a
simple life and a pretty girl (Kate Hudson) to come home to. But when the job brings
him face to face with a gorgeous prostitute (Jessica Alba) on the edge of town,
Ford's fragile world cracks - unbridling his own dark urges. In THE KILLER INSIDE
ME'S blacker-than-noir universe, nothing is ever what it seems.
109 minutes
Rated R (disturbing brutal violence, aberrant sexual content, and some graphic nudity)
Please be aware - the book and film are fiction, but the violent portrayals in the
film are extremely graphic. Please consider this before attending. Thank you,
Clark Wiens
Mark Olsen - Los Angeles Times
"An electrifying film capturing the inferno buring inside the mind of one man."

Rated R (some drug material, language, and violent content)
Thank you for your patience during the SOLD OUT showings of WINTER'S BONE. Our

inconvenience this may have caused.
David Germain - The Oklahoman - 4 stars
"One of the best films to come out of the Sundance Film Festival in the past decade,
WINTER'S BONE won the top prize for U. S. dramas last January, the same award
PRECIOUS won the previous year."

3 stars ~ Michael Smith ~ Tulsa World
Lisbeth Salander is a wanted woman. A researcher and a Millennium journalist about
to expose the truth about the sex trade in Sweden are brutally murdered, and
Salander's prints are on the weapon. Her history of unpredictable and vengeful
behavior makes her an official danger to society, but no one can find her anywhere.
Meanwhile, Mikael Blomkvist, editor-in-chief of Millennium, will not believe what he
hears on the news. Knowing Salander to be fierce when fearful, he is desperate to
get to her before she is cornered and alone. As he fits the pieces of the puzzle
together, he comes up against some hardened criminals, including the
chainsaw-wielding 'blond giant', a fearsomely huge thug who can feel no pain.
Digging deeper, Blomkvist also unearths some heart-wrenching facts about Salander's
past life.
In Swedish with English subtitles.
129 minutes
Not Rated
Joe Morgenstern - Wall Street Journal
"The actress gets immeasurable help from the writing: Lisbeth's anger is matched by
her intelligence and her physical prowess, which enables her to administer as well
as absorb pain in megadoses. But none of it would register without Ms. Rapace's
singular combination of eerie beauty and feral intensity. She's a movie star unlike
any other."

George Mallory was obsessed with becoming the first person to conquer the untouched

he disappeared into legend. His death stunned the world. 75 years later, climber
Conrad Anker's life became intertwined with Mallory's after finding his frozen body
with all his belongings intact. The only thing missing was a photograph of his wife,
Ruth, which Mallory had promised to place on the summit. Haunted by Mallory's story,
Conrad returns to Everest to unravel the mysteries surrounding his disappearance.

WINNEBAGO MAN
Opens Friday, September 3
Following a two-week shoot in August 1988 for a Winnebago sales ad, a 4-minute
outtakes reel surfaced and eventually came to be known as WINNEBAGO MAN. While the
finished sales ad was sent to Winnebago dealers to promote the 1989 Itasca Sunflyer
motorhome, copies of the outtakes were being passed amongst the crew and their
friends on VHS tape. Eventually the video fell in the hands of videotape collectors,
who began copying and trading it, sparking an underground phenomenon that turned
Jack Rebney into a cult hero. When the online video revolution took off on YouTube
and other websites, Jack Rebney became one of the first viral video superstars.
