april 4, 2011True Grit

Monday, April 4, 2011 • 8 pm
Clayoquot Community Theatre

True Grit
(US, 2010, West, 109 min, Rated 14A)
Directed by Joel & Ethan Cohen

Retribution…

Much more than just a remake, this film really did take true grit on the part of Ethan and Joel Cohen to rewrite completely. You won’t even remember what the 1969 version was like. Fourteen-year-old Mattie Ross's father has been shot in cold blood by the coward Tom Chaney and she is determined to bring him to justice. Enlisting the help of a trigger-happy, drunken U.S. Marshal, Rooster Cogburn (Jeff Bridges), she sets out with him — over his objections — to hunt down Chaney. Stars Jeff Bridges, Hailey Steinfeld, Josh Brolin and Matt Damon. See it before it comes to home DVD.

Nominated for 10 Academy Awards; another 88 awards/’nominations world-wide.

“True Grit is one of the year’s 10 best.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone


april 11, 2011Catfish

Monday, April 11, 2011 • 8 pm
Clayoquot Community Theatre

Catfish
(2010, US, Doc/Dra, 86 min, Rated PG)
Directed by Ariel Schulman and Henry Joost

Don’t let anyone tell you what it is…

“There’s more killer suspense and shocking intimacy in this one-of-a-kind documentary than you'll find in a dozen thrillers. You'll laugh hard and cry too. Don’t let anyone, especially critics, spoil this story of Nev Schulman, 24, a New York photographer who strikes up a Facebook relationship with an eight-year-old Michigan girl and her family, including a hottie stepsister. When Nev decides to visit, accompanied by his brother Ariel, Henry Joost and their DV cameras, the film unravels its secrets. You’ll be talking about this one for weeks.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Premiered at Sundance, 2010


april 18, 2011GasLand

Monday, April 18, 2011 • 8 pm
Clayoquot Community Theatre

GasLand
(2010, Canada, Doc, 107 min, Not Rated)
Directed by Josh Fox

Can you light your water on fire?

Can you imagine being able to light your tap water on fire? This is just one of the many shocking results due to the natural gas drilling boom which has swept the United States. The Halliburton-developed drilling technology called hydraulic fracturing or “fracking” has unlocked a “Saudi Arabia of natural gas” just beneath us. But is fracking safe? Part verité travelogue, part exposé, part mystery, part bluegrass banjo meltdown, part showdown. Josh Fox encounters EPA whistleblowers, congressmen, world recognized scientists, and some of the most incredibly inspiring and heart-wrenching stories of ordinary Americans fighting against fossil fuel giants for environmental justice.

Best Doc nomination at the Oscars; 2 nominations at Sundance
