size=4>(R)</FONT></FONT><FONT size=3> Here is a very, very fine film that
has gathered up 5 Oscar nominations including "Best Picture", yet, <EM>it is no
secret</EM>, <U>has not really done that much business
nationwide</U>!</FONT></FONT></FONT></FONT></FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3><EM>WHY is that?</EM></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3>Well, could it be that many of the moviegoers in
this country are NOT like Decatur's "Avon people" and really do not have a
clue as to who "Frost" or "Nixon" even were?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3><EM>(Much less do they even
care!)</EM></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3>It becomes more and more evident every day just
how "special" The Avon and its patrons are!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3>HERE IS YOUR CHANCE to see a wonderfully done
movie that is as INTELLIGENTLY tense and grabbing as any "mall-thriller"
you can find! SEE IT BEFORE THE OSCARS THIS WEEKEND!!!</FONT></DIV>

the main event looms! Can it go the distance? Can this marvelous little movie
actually go against the Hollywood tide and take the gold?</FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3>If you are STILL on-the-fence about seeing this,
there is not much more I can say that will convince you this is a
ground-breaking movie that NEEDS to be seen!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=3>JUST REMEMBER: Don't let the first 20 to 30
minutes throw you. I have not been there for EVERY show to warn people, and that
is the time when we will lose 'em, <EM>if there is any danger of that
happening</EM>. STICK WITH IT! You will be glad at the end you did!</FONT></DIV>
