This Week's New Movies

be sure to update your profile if you want to see any of these!

The Other Boleyn Girl The Other Boleyn Girl
Director Justin Chadwick's opulent historical drama stars Natalie Portman as Anne Boleyn and Scarlett Johansson as her sister, Mary -- beautiful, ambitious sisters vying for the heart of powerful but intemperate King Henry VIII (Eric Bana). Though both women are the monarch's mistresses, only one can become his queen consort -- but at what cost? The supporting cast includes Kristin Scott Thomas and Jim Sturgess.

Penelope
Penelope Wilhern (Christina Ricci) is cursed, and the only way out of it is to fall in love with someone of suitable stock. But how can she possibly find her soul mate when she's sequestered inside her family's sprawling estate with only her parents (Catherine O'Hara and Richard E. Grant) to keep her company? Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon co-produced this unconventional fairy tale about a girl who bucks convention to make her own happy ending.

Semi-Pro Semi-Pro
Will Ferrell stars as Jackie Moon, owner and coach of the Flint Michigan Tropics -- the team with the worst record in the renegade American Basketball Association. With the franchise on the brink of collapse, can Jackie's squad rebound to salvation in the National Basketball Association? Director Kent Alterman's entertaining comedy (set in 1976) also stars Woody Harrelson, Maura Tierney, André Benjamin and Andy Richter.

In Short:

Bonneville Bonneville
When the life she knew suddenly changes, Arvilla Holden finds herself at an emotional crossroads. Hijacking her two best friends, Carol and Margene, she sets off in a vintage '66 Bonneville convertible across the great American West on what turns out to be the journey of a lifetime. A friendly trucker who becomes an unlikely suitor.

Chicago 10 Chicago 10
Blending archival footage with modern animation, this documentary examines the 1968 Chicago Democratic Convention, which was beset by massive protests.

Romulus, My Father Romulus, My Father
It tells the story of Romulus, his beautiful wife, Christina, and their struggle in the face of great adversity to bring up their son, Raimond. It is a story of impossible love that ultimately celebrates the unbreakable bond between father and son.
