(1982)
Directed by Alan J. Pakula
Thursday - April 17 - 6:30 p.m.
Screen-favorite Meryl Streep received an Academy
Award
®
for her portrayal of Sophie Zawistowska in
this penetrating drama set in 1947 post-World War
II Brooklyn. Kevin Kline plays her all-consuming
lover, Nathan. The story revolves around Sophie's
struggle as a Polish-Catholic immigrant in the
United States who had survived a Nazi concen-
tration camp. The lovers' drama unfolds through
the observations of a friend and would-be writer,
Stingo (Peter MacNicol). As the trio grows closer,
Stingo discovers the hidden truths that they each
harbor, resulting in a narrative that is both capti-
vating and moving. (2K DCP. 150 min. Rated R.)

The acclaimed true story of how one woman's
musical gift affected those who least expected it.
A single mother with little more than talent and
the determination to make a difference, Roberta
Guaspari overcame the skepticism of everyone who
didn't think she should be teaching violin to stu-
dents in a tough inner-city neighborhood. However,
even after a decade of ever-growing popularity
and countless success stories, Roberta and her
kids must rise to meet an even greater challenge:
budget cuts aimed at shutting down her valuable
program for good. This extraordinary story will in-
spire anyone who's ever thought their dreams were
too far out of reach. (35mm. 124 min. Rated PG.)

in doing so, endangers not only his beloved family, but the whole
animal community. (2K DCP. 87 min. Rated PG.)
