ANCHORMAN
- June 26 & 27th-
Marking the directorial debut of Adam McKay, former head writer for Saturday Night Live and founder of the Upright Citizen's Brigade, Anchorman is set during the 1970s and stars Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy, San Diego's top-rated news anchorman. While Burgundy is outwardly willing to adjust to the idea of females in the workplace -- even outside of secretarial positions -- he certainly doesn't want his own job challenged. Keeping that in mind, it's no wonder that the arrival of Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate), an aspiring newswoman, is, in Ron's eyes, not the studio's most welcome addition. After Veronica pays her dues covering so-called female-oriented fluff pieces (think cat fashion shows and cooking segments), the ambitious Veronica sets her eyes on the news desk; more specifically, on Ron's seat behind it. Not unpredictably, Ron doesn't take the threat lightly, and it isn't long before the rival newscasters are engaged in a very personal battle of the sexes. Anchorman was co-written by Ferrell, and features supporting performances from David Koechner, Steve Carrell, Paul Rudd, Tara Subkoff, and Maya Rudolph. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide

FOOD,
INC. - Documentary filmmaker Robert
Kenner uses reports by Fast Food Nation
author Eric Schlosser and The Omnivore's
Dilemma author Michael Pollan as a springboard
to exploring where the food we purchase
at the grocery store really comes from,
and what it means for the health of future
generations. By exposing the comfortable
relationships between business and government,
Kenner gradually shines light on the dark
underbelly of the American food industry.
The USDA and FDA are supposed to protect
the public, so why is it that both government
regulatory agencies have been complicit
in allowing corporations to put profit
ahead of consumer health, the American
farmer, worker safety, and even the environment?
As chicken breasts get bigger and tomatoes
are genetically engineered not to go bad,
73,000 Americans fall ill from powerful
new strains of e coli every year, obesity
levels are skyrocketing, and adult diabetes
has reached epidemic proportions. Perhaps
if the general public knew how corporations
use exploited laws and subsidies to create
powerful monopolies, the outrage would
be enough to make us think more carefully
about the food we put into our bodies.

OUR SKIN - A dramatic tale of

livelihoods, the film brings into focus
a haunting picture of our health care
system and its inability to cope with
a silent terror under our skin.

SUMMER
HOURS -Three siblings must come
to terms with their mother's mortality
as they decide what to do with her
valuable belongings in this warm family
drama from filmmaker Olivier Assayas.
Hélène Berthier (Edith Scob) is about
to turn 75, and her children are gathering
at her home in the country for a party.
Adrienne (Juliette Binoche) has flown
in from New York City, where she lives
with her boyfriend, James (Kyle Eastwood).
Jérémie (Jérémie Renier) has taken
a rare break from his globe-trotting
business interests to stop by with
his wife (Valérie Bonneton). And Frédéric
(Charles Berling), the only one who
lives close enough to visit regularly,
has also come with his spouse, Lisa
(Dominique Reymond). Hélène has inherited
a large and valuable collection of
art from her brother, and with her
health beginning to fail, she approaches
Frédéric and asks that he, Jérémie,
and Adrienne come up with a plan to
deal with the pieces after her death.
Frédéric wants to keep the collect!
ion together and see if they can persuade a gallery to purchase and present them
as a set. Jérémie and Adrienne have other ideas, but as he's pondering a business
opportunity in China and she's planning on settling in America for good, they
don't have as much influence over the final decision as Frédéric. L'Heure d'Été
(aka Summer Hours) was produced in part by the celebrated French art gallery
Musée d'Orsay, and was one of a handful of films created to honor the museum
in its 20th anniversary year. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

MY
SISTER'S KEEPER - Director Nick
Cassavetes collaborates with screenwriter Jeremy
Leven (The
Notebook) for this drama about
a pair of parents who resort to unorthodox
methods in order to save their young
daughter's life, only to find their
decision coming back to haunt them
in a manner neither could have ever
foreseen. Sara (Cameron
Diaz) and Brian (Jason
Patric) were coasting through life
with their young son and daughter when
tragedy threatened to tear the family
apart. Suddenly, their baby girl falls
ill, and her only hope for survival
rests in her parents' ability to find
a compatible bone marrow donator. Desperate
to save their daughter's life at any
cost, Sara and Brian conceive another
child in hopes that the baby will be
a genetic match. But that decision
raises a series of moral and ethical
questions that rapidly begin to erode
the foundation of the once-happy couple's
relationship. Incensed upon learning
that she was brought into this world
for the singular purpose of prolonging
the life of her ailing older sister,
the young girl (Abigail
Breslin) ultimately decides to
sue her parents for emancipation. Alec
Baldwin, Sofia
Vassilieva, and Joan
Cusack co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan,

PUBLIC
ENEMIES
- Based on author Bryan Burrough's
ambitious tome Public Enemies: America's
Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of
the FBI, 1933-43, director Michael
Mann's sprawling historical crime drama
follows the efforts of top FBI agent
Melvin Purvis (Christian Bale ) in
capturing notorious bank robber John
Dillinger. A folk hero to the American
public thanks to his penchant for robbing
the banks that many people believed
responsible for the Great Depression,
charming bandit Dillinger (Johnny Depp)
was virtually unstoppable at the height
of his criminal career; no jail could
hold him, and his exploits endeared
him to the common people while making
headlines across the country. J. Edgar
Hoover's (Billy Crudup) FBI was just
coming into formation, and what better
way for the ambitious lawman to transform
his fledgling Bureau of Investigation
into a national police force than to
capture the gang that always gets away?
Determined to bust Dillinger and his
crew, which also included sociopathic
Baby Face Nelson (Stephen Graham) and
Alvin Karpis (Giovanni Ribisi), Hoover
christened Dillinger the country's very
first Public Enemy Number One, and unleashed
Purvis to take them down by whatever
means necessary. But Purvis underestimated
Dillinger's ingenuity as a master criminal,
and after embarking on a frantic series
of chases and shoot-outs, the dashing
agent humbly surmised that he was in
over his head. Outwitted and outgunned,
Purvis knew that his only hope for busting
Dillinger's gang was to baptize a crew
of Western ex-lawmen as official agents,
and orchestrate a series of betrayals
so cunning that even America's criminal
mastermind wouldn't know what hit him.
Marion Cotillard, Channing Tatum, and
Stephen Dorff co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan,
