Tell No One

October 12, 2008 6:30 PM

Sunday, October 12–Sunday, October 19

 

Shows at 6:30 and 8:45 pm

 

Not rated

 Doctor Alex Beck (François Cluzet), still devastated by the savage murder of his wife Margot (Marie-Josee Croze) eight years ago, receives an anonymous email. When he clicks on the link, he sees a woman standing in a crowd being filmed in real time—Margot. Is she still alive? And why does she instruct him to “Tell no one?” Based on the international best-selling novel by Harlan Coben. Best Director and Best Actor awards at the 2007 Cesar Awards; Best Film and World Audience awards at the 2007 Lumiere Awards. October 12–18 screening room. French with subtitles. 125 mins.


Man On Wire

October 12, 2008 7:00 PM

Sunday, October 5–Sunday, October 12

 

Shows at 7 and 9 pm

 

Rated: PG-13

 August 7, 1974. A young Frenchman named Philippe Petit steps out on a wire suspended 1,350 feet above ground between the twin towers of the World Trade Center. He dances on the wire with no safety net for almost an hour, crossing it eight times before he is arrested for what becomes known as “The artistic crime of the century.” Unfolding like a deliciously intriguing heist film, Man on Wire brings Petit’s extraordinary adventure back to life with visceral immediacy ripened by post–September 11 nostalgia. In candid interviews, Petit and all the key participants relish this chance to tell their stories. Filmmaker James Marsh (like his daring subject) pulls off an astonishing coup buoyed with eye-catching archival footage, clever dramatizations, and delightful visual effects. Winner of the Documentary Audience Award and Documentary Grand Jury Prize at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. October 5–7, 9–11 screening room. 94 mins.
