filmmaker Werner Herzog takes the subject of his earlier documentary on this
amazing true story, and makes it into a first-class action-adventure! Christian
Bale, who keeps garnering attention in most every role he plays, and the
comic-actor Steve Zahn, here taking a rare and inspired dramatic turn, perform
above and beyond your expectations! The reviews on this have been mostly
excellent, and it has been touted as an intelligent alternative to much of the
mindless action films of this Summer!</FONT></FONT></STRONG></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Tahoma size=1><FONT face=Georgia size=2>This
romantic remake of the German-language "Mostly Martha" (which we played at the
Avon several years ago) is a real delightful story about a workaholic
restaurant chef (Catherine Zeta-Jones) and the new chef who invades "her"
kitchen (played by Aaron Eckhart).</FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>

size=4><U>BECOMING JANE</U> (PG)<FONT size=2> If someone asked you to define the
term "Avon movie", this would be the answer! Anne Hathaway in a fictionalized
take on what authoress Jane Austen's inspiration for her 6 iconic books "might"
have been. There are factual elements here as well, but be prepared for a
sweeping and luscious journey to another, less hectic and more graceful, time
and place. Rounding out the cast is Maggie Smith, Julie Walters and the
ever-present James Cromwell. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!<BR><FONT size=2><FONT

BOURNE ULTIMATUM</U> (PG13) <FONT size=2>Oh, how we hated that this opened on
Decatur Celebration weekend! That is, typically, not a weekend of much business
for us, and we thought we had forever lost the opening weekend momentum!
THEN...Something incredible happened last weekend!! It seems that our loyal
fanbase had merely waited for a week until the inconvenience and razzle-dazzle
of Celebration was over! In fact, while the rest of the country took an expected
50% drop in ticket sales on this, we went UP almost 20%!! God Bless those Avon
fans!! Matt Damon and a stellar cast bring a breathless and intelligent thriller
right to the brink of exhaustive frenzy! This one moves at a lightning pace, and
will not disappoint, that's for sure! HURRY! ENDS
SOON!!</FONT></FONT></FONT></STRONG></FONT></DIV>
