PRECIOUS (R)
Set in Harlem in 1987, Precious is a vibrant, honest
and resoundingly hopeful film about the human capacity to grow
and overcome. Claireece "Precious" Jones (Gabourey Sidibe) is
a 16-year-old African-American girl born into a life no one
would want. She's pregnant for the second time by her absent
father; at home, she must wait hand and foot on her mother (Mo'Nique),
a poisonously angry woman who abuses her emotionally and
physically. School is a place of chaos, and Precious has
reached the ninth grade with good marks and an awful secret:
she can neither read nor write. Precious may sometimes be
down, but she is never out. Beneath her impassive expression
is a watchful, curious young woman with an inchoate but
unshakeable sense that other possibilities exist for her.
Threatened with expulsion, Precious is offered the chance to
transfer to an alternative school, Each One/Teach One. In the
literacy workshop taught by the patient yet firm Ms. Rain
(Paula Patton), Precious begins a journey that will lead her
from darkness, pain and powerlessness to light, love and
self-determination. Winner of three awards at the 2009
Sundance Film Festival, including the Grand Jury Prize and
Audience Award in the U.S. Dramatic Competition. Co-starring
Mariah Carey, Sherri Shepherd and Lenny Kravitz.

Gotta Give, What Women Want) directs Meryl Streep, Steve
Martin and Alec Baldwin in a comedy about love, divorce and
everything in between. Jane (Streep) is the mother of three

with her ex-husband, attorney Jake (Baldwin). But when Jane
and Jake find themselves out of town for their son’s college
graduation, things start to get complicated. An innocent meal
together turns into the unimaginable—an affair. With Jake
remarried to the much younger Agness (Lake Bell), Jane is now,
of all things, the other woman. Caught in the middle of their
renewed romance is Adam (Martin), an architect hired to
remodel Jane's kitchen. Healing from a divorce of his own,
Adam starts to fall for Jane, but soon realizes he's become
part of a love triangle. Should Jane and Jake move on with
their lives, or is love truly lovelier the second time around?
It's... complicated. Also starring John Krasinski.

AVATOR 3D (PG13)
Sorry No Passes
Avatar, a live action film in 3D from writer/director
James Cameron (Titanic, Aliens, The Terminator),
features a new generation of immersive special effects that
take us to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a
reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and
discovery as he leads an epic battle to save a civilization.
The story's hero is Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a former
Marine confined to a wheelchair. Bitter and disillusioned,
he's still a warrior at heart. All Jake ever wanted was
something worth fighting for, and he finds it in the place he
least expected: on a distant world. Jake has been recruited to
join an expedition to the moon Pandora, which corporate
interests are strip-mining for a mineral worth $20 million per
kilogram on Earth. To facilitate their work, the humans use a
link system that projects a person's consciousness into a
hybrid of humans and Pandora's indigenous humanoids, the Na'vi.
This human-Na'vi hybrid—a fully living, breathing body that
resembles the Na'vi but possesses the individual human's
thoughts, feelings and personality—is known as an "avatar." In
his new avatar form, Jake can once again walk. His mission is
to interact with and infiltrate the Na'vi with the hope of
enlisting their help—or at least their acquiescence—in mining
the ore. Complications arise when Jake falls in love with a
beautiful Na'vi female (Zoe Saldana) who saves his life,
leading to an epic conflict that will decide nothing less than
the fate of an entire world.
