ALICE IN
WONDERLAND 3D (PG)

From
visionary director Tim Burton comes the epic 3D fantasy
adventure Alice in Wonderland, a magical and impressive
twist on some of the most beloved stories of all time. Johnny
Depp stars as the Mad Hatter and Mia Wasikowska as 19-year-old
Alice, who returns to the whimsical world she first
encountered as a young girl, reuniting her with her childhood
friends: the White Rabbit, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the
Dormouse, the Caterpillar, the Cheshire Cat, and of course the
Mad Hatter. Alice embarks on a fantastical journey to find her
true destiny and end the Red Queen's reign of terror. Also

(1871) with stunning, avant-garde visuals and some of the most
charismatic characters in literary history.

THE WHITE RIBBON
(R)

The setting of The White Ribbon is a village in
Protestant northern Germany from 1913 to 1914, on the eve of
World War I. The story revolves around the children and
teenagers of a choir run by the village schoolteacher, and
their families: the baron, the steward, the pastor, the
doctor, the midwife, the tenant farmers—a cross-section of the
entire community. Strange accidents and misfortunes befall the
citizens of Eichwald, gradually taking on the character of a
punishment ritual. But who is behind it all? Winner of three
awards at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, including the
prestigious Palme d'Or, this provocative and haunting film
from writer-director Michael Haneke (Funny Games, Caché,
The Piano Teacher) is stunningly photographed in black and
white. Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Language Film
and Best Cinematography. (Fully subtitled)

THE LAST
STATION (R)

After almost fifty years of marriage, Countess Sofya (Helen
Mirren, Academy Award nominee for Best Actress), the devoted
wife, passionate lover, muse and secretary of Leo Tolstoy
(Christopher Plummer, Academy Award nominee for Best
Supporting Actor), suddenly finds her entire world turned
upside down. In the name of his newly created religion, the
great Russian novelist has renounced his noble title, his
property and even his family in favor of poverty,
vegetarianism and even celibacy. When Sofya then discovers
that Tolstoy's trusted disciple, Chertkov (Paul Giamatti)—whom
she despises—may have secretly convinced her husband to sign a
new will, leaving the rights to his iconic novels to the
Russian people rather than his very own family, she is
consumed by righteous outrage. Into this minefield wanders
Tolstoy's worshipful new assistant, the young, gullible
Valentin (James McAvoy). In no time, he becomes a pawn, first
of the scheming Chertkov and then of the wounded, vengeful
Sofya as each plots to undermine the other's gains.
Complicating Valentin's life even further is the overwhelming
passion he feels for the beautiful, spirited Marsha (Kerry
Condon), a free thinking adherent of Tolstoy's new religion
whose unconventional attitudes about sex and love both compel
and confuse him. A tale of two romances, one beginning, one
near its end, The Last Station is a complex, funny,
rich and emotional story about the difficulty of living with
love and the impossibility of living without it.

SHUTTER ISLAND (R)
Sorry No Passes
In
1954, U.S. marshals Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and
Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo), are summoned to the hospital for
the criminally insane on remote and barren Shutter Island off
the cost of Massachusetts to investigate the disappearance of
a female murderer. Marshall Daniels is especially keen on
cracking the case, for he has personal matters at stake. He
suspects rampant unsavory (and illegal) treatment practices at
the institution, but then clashes with Dr. John Cawley (Ben
Kingsley), who refuses him access to hospital records. As a
fierce storm cuts off both communication with and escape to
the mainland, and dangerous criminals break loose on the
island, Daniels’s grasp of the clues, his memory, his trust in
his partner, and his wits begin to unravel. From Oscar-winning
director Martin Scorsese. Also starring Emily Mortimer,
Patricia Clarkson, Michelle Williams and Max von Sydow.

Bridges (The Men Who Stare at Goats, The Big Lebowski)

AVATOR 3D (PG13)


Avatar, a live action film in 3D from writer/director
James Cameron (Titanic, Aliens, The Terminator),
features a new generation of immersive special effects that
take us to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a
reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and
discovery as he leads an epic battle to save a civilization.
The story's hero is Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a former
Marine confined to a wheelchair. Bitter and disillusioned,
he's still a warrior at heart. All Jake ever wanted was
something worth fighting for, and he finds it in the place he
least expected: on a distant world. Jake has been recruited to
join an expedition to the moon Pandora, which corporate
interests are strip-mining for a mineral worth $20 million per
kilogram on Earth. To facilitate their work, the humans use a
link system that projects a person's consciousness into a
hybrid of humans and Pandora's indigenous humanoids, the Na'vi.
This human-Na'vi hybrid—a fully living, breathing body that
resembles the Na'vi but possesses the individual human's
thoughts, feelings and personality—is known as an "avatar." In
his new avatar form, Jake can once again walk. His mission is
to interact with and infiltrate the Na'vi with the hope of
enlisting their help—or at least their acquiescence—in mining
the ore. Complications arise when Jake falls in love with a
beautiful Na'vi female (Zoe Saldana) who saves his life,
leading to an epic conflict that will decide nothing less than
the fate of an entire world.
