When
second-graders Bryce and Juli first meet, Juli knows it’s love.
But Bryce isn’t so sure. Girl-phobic and easily embarrassed,

girlfriend at arm’s length... for the next six years, which
isn’t easy since they go to the same school and live across the
street from each other. But if Juli finally looks away, will it be
Bryce’s turn to be dazzled? Flipped takes Bryce and Juli from
grade school to junior high, through triumph and disaster, family drama
and first love, as they make the discovers that will define who they
are–and who they are to each other.

Mao's Last Dancer
Rated PG for a brief violent image, some
sensuality, language and incidental smoking
Chi
Cao, Bruce Greenwood, Amanda Schull, Kyle MacLachlan
This is the
inspirational true story of Li Cunxin, adapted from his best-selling
autobiography and telling how, amidst the chaos of Mao's Cultural
Revolution, he was chosen to leave his peasant family and sent on an
amazing journey as it turned out towards freedom and personal triumph.
Li's story unfolds as China was emerging from Mao's grand vision. It
couldn't have been a better time for Li Cunxin to discover the west and
for the west to discover Li Cunxin. This is about how Li overcame
adversity, discovering and exploring his natural abilities and talent
as a great classical dancer. This meant not only dealing with his own
physical limitations but also eventually the punishment meted out by a
highly suspicious Chinese government after Li's defection to the US. In
America Li found a completely different and captivating new world but
there were other difficulties he could never have imagined. Even with
the support of many friends there was still isolation and despite his
growing fame there was still uncertainty for his future. Here is a
poignant yet triumphant story, directed by twice Academy nominated
director Bruce Beresford (BREAKER MORANT, DRIVING MISS DAISY, TENDER
MERCIES, BLACK ROBE etc) from a stunning adaptation by experienced
screenwriter, Jan Sardi (SHINE, THE NOTEBOOK, LOVE'S BROTHER etc) that
has the ability to touch both worlds.

You Again
Rated PG for brief mild language and rude behavior
Jamie
Lee Curtis, Sigourney Weaver, Kristen Bell, Christine Lakin, Betty
White, Victor Garber, Kristin Chenoweth, Patrick Duffy, Odette Yustman,
Meagan Holder
A high-powered PR
professional discovers that her brother is about to marry the woman who
made her high school life a living hell in this comedy. Back in
her teens, Marni (Bell) was a little awkward. These days she's a
successful career woman, but the memories of being tormented by popular
cheerleader Joanna (Yustman) still make her break into a cold sweat.
Flying home for her brother's Will's wedding, Marni realizes to her
horror that she will soon be sister-in-law to the pompon-wielding mean
girl who once humiliated her in front of the entire student body. And
apparently her nemesis learned from the best, because back when Marni's
mom (Jamie Lee Curtis) was in high school, Joanna's mom (Sigourney
Weaver) served up the same kind of treatment. Now that they're about to
become family, Marni and her mom do their best to let bygones be
bygones. But old grudges die hard, and by the time the wedding bells
chime, these old foes will already have some saucy stories to share
with their grandchildren

Let Me In
Rated Not Yet Rated
Richard
Jenkins, Chloe Moretz, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Dylan Minnette, Jimmy 'Jax'
Pinchak
An alienated
12-year-old boy befriends a mysterious young newcomer in his small New
Mexico town, and discovers an unconventional path to adulthood in Let
Me In, a haunting and provocative thriller written and directed by
filmmaker Matt Reeves (Cloverfield). Twelve-year old Owen (Kodi
Smit-McPhee) is viciously bullied by his classmates and neglected by
his divorcing parents. Achingly lonely, Owen spends his days plotting
revenge on his middle school tormentors and his evenings spying on the
other inhabitants of his apartment complex. His only friend is his new
neighbor Abby (Chloe Moretz), an eerily self- possessed young girl who
lives next door with her silent father (Oscarnominee Richard Jenkins).
A frail, troubled child about Owens's age, Abby emerges from her
heavily curtained apartment only at night and always barefoot,
seemingly immune to the bitter winter elements. Recognizing a fellow
outcast, Owen opens up to her and before long, the two have formed a
unique bond. When a string of grisly murders puts the town on high
alert, Abby's father disappears, and the terrified girl is left to fend
for herself. Still, she repeatedly rebuffs Owen's efforts to help her
and her increasingly bizarre behavior leads the imaginative Owen to
suspect she's hiding an unthinkable secret. The gifted cast of Let Me
In takes audiences straight to the troubled heart of adolescent longing
and loneliness in an astonishing coming-of-age story based on the
best-selling Swedish novel Lat den Ratte Komma In (Let the Right One
In) by John Ajvide Lindqvist, and the highly-acclaimed film of the same
name.
