SUMMARY:MOVIE NIGHT: "The Maltese Falcon" (1941)
DESCRIPTION:Image courtesy mptvimages.com\nAdmission by donation. Popcorn and cash bar will be available before the show. \nDo you know that this is the 75th anniversary of the release of “The Maltese Falcon?”  Originally released in 1941\, it starred Humphrey Bogart and Mary Astor\, and was directed by John Huston.  \nPLOT“Spade and Archer” is the name of a San Francisco detective agency. That’s for Sam Spade and Miles Archer. The two men are partners\, but Sam doesn’t like Miles much. A knockout\, who goes by the name of Miss Wonderly\, walks into their office; and by that night\, everything’s changed. Miles is dead. And so is a man named Floyd Thursby. It seems Miss Wonderly is surrounded by dangerous men. \nThere’s Joel Cairo\, who uses gardenia-scented calling cards. There’s Kasper Gutman\, with his enormous girth and feigned civility. Her only hope of protection comes from Sam\, who is suspected by the police of one or the other murder. More murders are yet to come\, and it will all be because of these dangerous men — and their lust for a statuette of a bird: the Maltese Falcon. \nWritten by J. Spurlin from IMDB.com \n  \n  \nThe Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest.  \n

SUMMARY:Foreign Film Festival: Monsoon Wedding

Disillusioned with her long time relationship with Vikram — a man who is almost twice her age — Aditi suddenly agrees to submit to an arranged marriage with Hemant\, an engineer from Houston. Yet as the ceremony nears\, she gets cold feet and returns to see her former lover — even though it could spell disaster for everyone involved. Meanwhile\, Aditi’s comely 17-year-old cousin Ayesha is coming to terms with her blossoming sexuality and has her sights set on Rahul\, another relative who is a college student in Australia. Then there is Rai — also Aditi’s cousin — who has a shocking revelation to make. \nAt Venice\, Monsoon Wedding won the prestigious Golden Lion award. \n

SUMMARY:Foreign Film Festival: Om Shanti Om
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n$8 all seats or $25 for Producer’s Pass (4 tickets).  The Producer’s Pass MUST be purchased in advance. \nCAST\nShahrukh Khan\, Arjun Rampal\, Kiron Kher\, Shreyas Talpade\, Bindu\, Deepika Padukone \nFilmbank Distributors Limited\nDirected by Farah Khan\nAuthor: Mark Deming\nRated NR; 180 minutes; 2007 \nWith English subtitles.\nLove and dreams follow two starry-eyed actors across three decades and two incarnations in this splashy Hindi musical. It’s the early ’70s\, and Om Prakash Makhija is a young would-be actor who has been playing bit parts in Bollywood musicals while looking for his big break. Om’s ambition is to become a film star and win the heart of beautiful screen siren Shantipriya\, and his pal Pappu and his mother\, Bela\, both encourage him not to give up on his dreams. One day\, Om meets Shantipriya on a movie set\, and he feels as if destiny is finally smiling on him\, but when he overhears her having an argument with studio chief Mukesh Mehra\, Om senses things are not as they should be. Before Om can decide what to make of his misgivings\, the studio burns to the ground\, claiming the lives of Om and Shantipriya. Thirty years later\, a bit of Om’s spirit seems to live on in Om Kapoor\, a popular film actor with a large ego and a fear of flame who was born the day the old studio burned down. Despite his fame\, Om is lonely\, at least until he meets Sandhya\, a shy but eager would-be actress looking for her chance to become a star. Om Shanti Om was directed and co-written by Farah Khan\, who was a top choreographer in the Indian film industry before moving up to the director’s chair\, and features guest spots from a number of Bollywood’s greatest stars\, a few appearing in the form of digital recreations taken from films of the ’70s. \n
