HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL's Kenny Ortega handles direction duties as well as choreography chores for the HD-shot film. We've seen some of this rehearsal footage before, of course, but this film promises to go more in depth and make us all regret the King of Pop's passing even more. I already hate that I can't go see this performance live, but I'm happy that at least we have this film as a final, fitting way to say goodbye. I glove MJ forever!

With Henry Thomas (THE STEELER AND THE PITTSBURGH KID, PSYCHO IV: THE BEGINNING) as Elliott, the boy who befriends E.T. and then narcissistically names the creature after the first and last letters of his own name. Also starring a 7 year-old Drew Barrymore (FIRESTARTER, POISON IVY) as Elliotâ€™s bratty little sister, and featuring E.T. as E.T.: a croaking bag of wrinkled skin who can't stop eating candy, drinking beer, and trying to make phone calls.

But along with fame and media hype came his unraveling, and, by 1960, Kerouac was a jaded cynic, disaffected from the Beat culture he helped create and tortured by self-doubt, addiction and depression. He secretly retreats to Lawrence Ferlinghetti's rustic cabin in the Big Sur woods for spiritual and physical renewal. But his plan is foiled by his own inner demons, and what ensues that summer becomes the basis for Kerouac's gritty, yet lyrically told, semi-autobiographical novel, "Big Sur". ONE FAST MOVE takes the viewer back to that cabin and to the Beat haunts of San Francisco and New York City for an unflinching, cinematic look at the compelling events the book is based on. The story unfolds in several synchronous ways: through the narrative arc of Kerouacs prose, told in voice-over by actor and Kerouac interpreter, John Ventimiglia (of HBO's THE SOPRANOS); through first'hand accounts and recollections of Kerouacs contemporaries; by the interpretations and reflections of writers, poets, actors and musicians who have been deeply influenced by Kerouac's unique gifts like Tom Waits, Sam Shepard, Robert Hunter, Patti Smith, Aram Saroyan, Donal Logue and S.E. Hinton; and by stunning visual imagery set to original music composed and performed by recording artist, Jay Farrar of Son Volt, with additional performance by Benjamin Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie.

AGILE MOBILE HOSTILE: A Year with Andre Williams Andre Williams has written and recorded a number of landmark hit songs and has worked with legends of the industry: Berry Gordy, Ike Turner and Stevie Wonder to name just a few. He's also struggled throughout his life with addiction, poverty, homelessness and the legal system. The doc's star says, "I'm going to show you the right way, because I've gone so many wrong ways". With this statement the man known as "Mr. Rhythm" takes us along a fascinating, funny and distressing journey. Andre doesn't always go "the right way" and this leads to tenuous relationships with friends, family and business partners, time in jail, eviction from his "old folks home" and subsequent struggle to pay for his room at the "Hotel 6" where he lives between tours. The filmmakers follow the charismatic underground recording artist through his day-to-day existence. For Andre, this could mean rehearsing for a show in Chicago, recording with Jon Spencer in Michigan, performing for enthusiastic fans in Croatia, doing a radio interview in Serbia or marching in a Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans. Throughout his 72 years, Andre has never stopped driving his creative visions forward, regardless of cost or consequence. The consequences turn out to be severe as Andre's addictive history catches up with him. Ultimately doing the right thing could be the choice between life and death for a musician who is perpetually on the cusp of newfound success.

Before Diablo Cody made talking in a teenage lingo mean dropping in dated Internet references as often as you can, Daniel Waters perfected the art of bitchy high school teen speak dialog in his screenplay for HEATHERS. "What's your damage?" "Where's your urge to purge?" This is the movie that established the teen black comedy as the ultimate way of viewing high school, and way before Lindsay Lohan learned about a new way to play through the social politics of the clique system in MEAN GIRLS, Christian Slater taught Winona Ryder that there are much more...physical ways of handling queen bees. This movie may not be as chock full of one-liners as some of the Mel Brooks types of comedies we've done as Quote-Alongs in the past, but the magic of hearing everyone say, "Lick it up, baby. Lick. It. Up," all in unison should be magical enough. And if that line alone isn't enough, "I love my dead gay son!" will clearly make this show worthy of surviving our adolescence for. We'll start the show with a liquid draino drinking contest, have some puke available should you need to pay anyone back for getting you into a Remington party, and fill the night with other props and surprises as well!

This show is one of the biggest and most robust Sing-Alongs we have in our catalog, and in the past we’d built two and a half different versions of it because one show just wouldn’t hold all of the ladies we wanted to include. Well, that’s still true this time around, but instead of making different volumes, we’re just going to collect ALL of our favorite 80s ladies’ videos into one collection on the media server, and every night of this show will be just a little bit different. That said, you don’t have to worry if you can’t come out week after week (although you really should); the cream of the crop videos will be in there every time, and all of our prop-aided songs, from the red balloons in 99 Red Balloons to the trampolines for Jump (For My Love) and the rainbow of streamers for True Colors will be included in each show. So come out for one show, or come out for all of them. Either way, we ask two very important things of you. One, plan on singing and dancing to pretty much every song, because the 1980s was the decade that invented the dance party (sorry, disco). And two, DRESS UP. Grab some leg warmers, rip up a sweat shirt, and put a headband on. Preferably all in neon colors. The Ladies of the 80s are back, and we’re so excited we just can’t hide it. I’m about to lose control, and I think I like it. Kid Policy: 18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent or guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed.

"What if," we thought, "we put together a Sing-Along show from a previous decade and then just mixed all of the music together, instead of focusing on Ladies from the 1980s, or Power Ballads, or Pop Rap? What if we made a mix tape of one particular year and just jammed it full of every big hit from that year? What would that be like?" With the 1987 Sing-Along, we found out that it would be AWESOME. This November, we're revisiting that idea and jumping forward a full decade as we celebrate our 1997 Sing-Along. This is the year of Puff Daddy, who had hits with "I'll Be Missing You," "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down," and a bunch of other songs that were really just songs from previous decades that we would rap over. But it's also the year that the Backstreet Boys first asked us to quit playing games with their hearts, when Hanson told us that in an MMmbop they'd be gone (and then stuck around forEVER), the Spice Girls told us what we'd need to do if we wanted to be their lovers (essentially just hook up with their friends, I think), and Donna Lewis promised that she'd love us, always, forever. In other words, 1997 may have been the greatest single year in the history of pop music, and we're actually a little bit surprised that we haven't celebrated it yet.

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "YOU CAN'T TAKE YOUR EYES OFF OF IT...ONE HELL OF A DATE MOVIE...Ingeniously structured and beautifully acted." James Greenberg, Film Journal International Adapted and directed by John Krasinski (THE OFFICE, AWAY WE GO), BRIEF INTERVIEWS WITH HIDEOUS MEN is a darkly funny and disturbing exploration of men and their complex relationships with women. Based on the book by David Foster Wallace, the film features an all-star cast that includes Timothy Hutton, Ben Shenkman, Christopher Meloni, Ben Gibbard, Will Arnett, Chris Messina, Bobby Cannavale, Will Forte, Dennis O'Hare, Lou Taylor Pucci, Max Minghella, and Julianne Nicholson. A graduate student (Nicholson) endeavors to explore the male psyche for her thesis by interviewing a cross-section of men. The men's twisted and revealing stories are juxtaposed against the backdrop of her own experience. As she begins to listen closely to the men around her, she must ultimately reconcile herself to the darkness that lies below the surface of human interactions. Krasinski and his fine cast successfully bring the first-ever David Foster Wallace work to the big screen with a film that audiences will be talking about for a long time.

This all-day event is an annual Alamo tradition as old as the ancients...or whenever RETURN OF THE KING came out. Each year we must gather to recount the epic quest of the hobbit Frodo and his merry band of dwarfs, wizards, elves and Viggo's. We snuggle up together and watch the entire LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY - nearly 12 hours - and get loaded to the gills with food, beer and wine all inspired by Tolkien's Middle Earth! Each of the seven(!) courses is served during each Hobbit meal time! By the time the King (spoiler alert!) ascends to his rightful throne, you too are ready to go back to the Shire and be greeted as a hero by your loved ones who didn't think you would make it all the way...and then pass out. Epic DISCLAIMER: The first two films will be the "director's cut" versions in 35mm, while the third will be the original theatrical release in 35mm. The "director's cut" of the third film was only released in DVD format, but the story goes that by the third film, Jackson had almost complete creative control... so, the theatrical cut is really like a director's cut. Based on this, we've decided to go 35mm all the way through, because it's just too pretty to pass up! Lord of the Rings Menu First Breakfast Fresh Hens eggs, nice crispy bacon, grilled mushrooms and orange slice Second Breakfast Strawberries and Cream Elevensies Seared-housemade lamb sausage and tomatoes with cheeses, cabbage and pickles Luncheon Syrah braised spareribs with mashed taters, roast baby carrots Afternoon Tea Local baby greens with garlic blackberry vinaigrette, chevre-herb galette cookies Dinner Stewed coney with taters, carrot, leek, and fresh garden herbs with crusty bread Supper Swirl of tomato and spinach soups wild mushroom crouton, apple pie Lembas bread as needed Featuring local items from Richardson Farms, Mark Addison Mushrooms, Wateroak Farm, Doodlebug Farm, Boggy Creek Farms, Loncito Ranch, Elves! Kid Policy: 18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent or guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed.
