The Descendants
Rated R (115 minutes)

**Unfortunately, we had to cancel this show last week due to a technical problem with our movie screen. The screen has been repaired and we want to make sure everyone has the opportunity to catch this fantastic movie!

From Alexander Payne, the creator of the Oscar-winning Sideways, set in Hawaii, The Descendants is a sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic journey for Matt King (George Clooney) an indifferent husband and father of two girls, who is forced to re-examine his past and embrace his future when his wife suffers a boating accident off of Waikiki. The event leads to a rapprochement with his young daughters while Matt wrestles with a decision to sell the family's land handed down from Hawaiian royalty and missionaries. -- (C) Fox Searchlight

When you're four years old and still making discoveries about the world around you, adventures can be anywhere! Caillou nurses an injured bird, explores a forest for treasures, helps his sister overcome being frightened at the car wash, and imagines what it would be like to have a desert in his own home. This collection of animated stories and puppet, musical, and live-action segments from the PBS preschool series is typically sunny (with a few clouds when things don't go Caillou's way) and insightful in its kid's-eye perspective.
