Happy Double Anniversary To Us! It's Been 25 Or 30 Years!
We opened our first film series in Newburyport, July '77
SUGAR
114 m., R
A dreamer from the Dominican Republic who wants only to be a big-league baseball star finds himself staying with a Bible Belt family in Iowa and playing the minor leagues of the cornfields of America. He's an intense young pitcher with the Kansas City Knights but he does impress a big-league scout with his deadly knuckle curve. It's as much about the nuance of social interaction as about baseball. Sugar he's called, played by the newcomer Algenis Perez Soto. He's worth cheering for.

THE INFORMER
98 m., R
Billy Bob Thornton, Mickey Rourke, Winona Ryder, Jon Fuster, Amber Heard.

Special engagement! One week only!
