REEL Time Theater

THE TOWN

(Ben Affleck, Rebecca Hall)

Doug MacRay is an unrepentant

criminal, the de facto leader of a

group of ruthless bank robbers who

pride themselves in stealing what

they want and getting out clean.

With no real attachments, Doug

never has to fear losing anyone

close to him. But that all changed on

the gang's latest job, when they

briefly took a hostage--bank

manager, Claire Keesey. Though they let her go

unharmed, Claire is nervously aware that the robbers

know her name and where she lives. She lets her guard

down when she meets an unassuming and rather

charming man named Doug not realizing that he is the

same man who only days earlier had terrorized her. The

instant attraction between them gradually turns into a

passionate romance that threatens to take them both

down a dangerous, and potentially deadly, path. Rated

R (strong violence, pervasive language, some sexuality

and drug use) 125 min

Show Times: 5 Nov @ 1900, 6 Nov @ 1900

YOU AGAIN

(Kristen Bell, Jamie Lee Curtis)

Successful PR pro Marni heads home

for her older brother's wedding and

discovers that he's marrying her high

school arch nemesis, who's

conveniently forgotten their problem-

atic past. Then the bride's jet-setting

aunt bursts in and Marni's not-so-jet-

setting mom comes face to face with

her own high school rival. The claws

come out and old wounds are opened in this crazy com-

edy that proves that not all rivalries are forever. Rated

PG (brief mild language and rude behavior) 105 min
