GONZO:
The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson (R)
LOUISVILLE EXCLUSIVE
From Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney (Taxi to the
Dark Side, Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room) and
producer Graydon Carter (Surfwise, The Kid Stays in the
Picture) comes a probing look into the uncanny life of
national treasure and gonzo journalism inventor Dr. Hunter S.
Thompson. A fast moving, wildly entertaining documentary with
an iconic soundtrack, the film addresses the major touchstones
in Thompson's life—his intense and ill fated relationship
with the Hell's Angels, his near-successful bid for the office
of sheriff in Aspen in 1970, the notorious story behind the
landmark Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, his deep
involvement in Senator George McGovern's 1972 presidential
campaign, and much more. Narrated by Johnny Depp.

FLIGHT
OF THE RED BALLOON (PG)
LOUISVILLE EXCLUSIVE
A mysterious red
balloon affectionately follows seven-year-old Simon (Simon
Iteanu) around Paris in this imaginative tale. His mother
Suzanne (Juliet Binoche) is a puppeteer who uses her vocal
talents to bring life to the shows she writes. Completely
absorbed in her new show, Suzanne becomes overwhelmed by the
complications of modern daily life, so she decides to hire
Song (Song Fang), a Taiwanese film student, to help her care
for Simon. Inspired by the 1956 classic, The Red Balloon.
Feeling at times almost improvisatory, this first
European-made film by writer/director Hou Hsiao Hsien (Flowers
of Shanghai, Millennium Mambo) is a poetic delight.
Co-starring Hippolyte Girardot and Louis Margolin. (Fully
subtitled)

ROMAN
DE GARE (R)
LOUISVILLE EXCLUSIVE
In the still of
the night, three lives are about to cross…a woman
abandoned, a stranger awaiting his chance and a best-selling
author who imagines the thriller of the year. Deceptively
layered and intriguingly misleading, this highly anticipated
new feature from writer/director Claude Lelouch (Oscar
winner for A Man and a Woman) stars Dominique Pinon
and Fanny Ardant as an unlikely couple caught up in a game
with high stakes—and deadly consequences. The thriller
takes its title from the name given to pulp fictions sold in
French train stations. Co-starring Audrey Dana. (Fully
subtitled)
