Friday is a big day for film fans, locally and nationally. We're thrilled to tell you that Winter's Bone starts Friday at the Co-Ed Theatre in Fairfield. Debra Granik’s Winter’s Bone led the U.S. Dramatic Competition at Sundance, taking both the grand jury prize and a special jury prize for screenwriting. “Bone follows an Ozark Mountain girl who hacks through dangerous social terrain as she hunts down her missing father while trying to keep her family intact."  Be aware, this is not a sweet little indie film. "Intense, immersive and in control, Winter's Bone has an art house soul inside a B picture body, and that proves to be a potent combination indeed." -Kenneth Turan, L.A. Times [click Read More]

Opening nationally is the highly anticipated The Social Network, about Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. "As of today, it's the best American picture of the year, likely to sweep Oscar nominations and awards."- Emanuel Levy "As socially significant to this generation as films like Network, All The President's Men and The Graduate were in their own time." -Box Office "...inspired by the new gospel: the geek shall inherit the earth."- N.Y. Times

We'll tell you about these films and more on The Filmosophers, with returning guest host Burt Chojnowski & Bruce Miller "where we give our filmosophy of the movies and have filmosophical discussions." Friday at 12:30.
