At The Movies

Curious George
The story of an inquisitive little monkey with an insatiable taste for adventure. George's spunky and fun-loving nature endears him to new friends, but also lands him in a series of (mis-)adventures. It is ideal for parents looking for a film to which they can take young children that tells a nice story and is respectful of the source (preserving their own memories of the books). Curious George is a sweet movie that leaves you and your children smiling when you leave the theatre.

North Country

When Josey Aimes (Charlize Theron) returns to her hometown in Northern Minnesota after a failed marriage, she needs a good job. A single mother with two children, she turns to the predominant source of employment in the region, the iron mines. She is prepared for the back breaking and often dangerous work, but coping with the harassment she and the other female miners encounter from their male coworkers proves far more challenging. When Josey speaks out against the treatment she and her fellow workers face, the fallout from her battle to make a better future for herself and her children will affect every aspect of her life. Through these struggles Josey will find the courage to stand up for what she believes in, even if that means standing alone.
