MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=

=0D=0A=
This new adaptation of Ado is a devilishly sharp celebration of banter & flirtation, unruly plots & unlikely romance. Playing up the physical comedy & sharply delivered barbs is an impressive ensemble cast - a combination of trained Shakespeareans & notable members of director Whedon’s unofficial stock company. With its flat-out gorgeous black & white cinematography, stellar cast & breakneck pace, Whedon’s Much Ado About Nothing holds a unique appeal. Fans of the masterwork will find all the pleasures of the original, while audiences of all stripes will enjoy this fresh spin on a high comedy that delivers an inventive, modern-day version of one of the Bard’s most beloved plays.=0D=0A=

TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Director: Morgan Neville; With: Darlene Love, Merry Clayton, Judith Hill, Claudia Lennear, Lisa Fischer, Táta Vega; Run Time: 1hr 29min; Year: 2013; Country: USA; Language: English=0D=0A=
Rated: PG-13; Genre: Documentary=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Award-winning filmmaker Morgan Neville shines a spotlight on the backup singers behind some of the greatest musical legends of the late 20th century, taking an unprecedented look at the moving personal journeys of these normally uncelebrated artists & paying tribute to their indelible role in popular music. Along with rare archival footage (David Bowie, Ray Charles) & a peerless soundtrack, 20 Feet From Stardom boasts intimate interviews with Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Mick Jagger, Sting & Bette Midler, to name just a few. However, these world famous figures take a backseat to the diverse array of backup singers whose lives & stories take center stage in the film. =0D=0A=

BLUE JASMINE=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Director: Woody Allen; Cast: Cate Blanchett, Alec Baldwin, Sally Hawkins, Louis C.K., Andrew Dice Clay, Peter Sarsgaard; Run Time: 1hr 38min; Year:2013; Country: USA; Language: English; Rated: PG-13; Genre: Comedy/Drama=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Woody Allen’s Blue Jasmine finds the director in peak late-period form & benefiting from a superb cast led by Cate Blanchett. Jasmine (Blanchett) is used to a life of wealth & privilege, but when her husband Hal (Baldwin) is jailed for a Madoff-like Ponzi scheme, she is forced to move in with her blue-collar sister Ginger (Hawkins). Combining the writer-director’s characteristic humour & ongoing fascination with love, desire, & fate with a timely & resonant examination of contemporary morality, Blue Jasmine is propelled by an extraordinary performance from Blanchett, & features surprising turns by comedians Louis C.K. & Andrew Dice Clay. =0D=0A=

Kon-Tiki=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Directors: Joachim Roenning, Espen Sandberg; Cast: Pål Sverre Hagen, Odd Magnus Williamson, Gustaf Skarsgard; Run Time: 1hr 58min; Year: 2013; Country: Norway / Denmark / UK; Language: English; Rated: PG-13; Genre: Drama=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 85th Academy Awards, Kon-Tiki is an epic retelling of Thor Heyerdahl’s 1947 expedition across the Pacific Ocean, from Peru to Polynesia. Unable to find a publisher to print his thesis that the settlers of Polynesia could have arrived from South America rather than from Asia as commonly believed, Heyerdahl (Pål Sverre Hagen; Max Manus) hatches a plan to cross the Pacific on raft, just like the ancient Incas before him. With stunning cinematography of the ocean and all that the expedition encounters within it, Kon-Tiki is an awe-inspiring film of impressive scale that begs to be seen on the big screen.=0D=0A=
