Phillips' exploration of Arthur Fleck, who is indelibly portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix, is of a man struggling to find his way in Gotham's fractured society. A clown-for-hire by day, he aspires to be a stand-up comic at night...but finds the joke always seems to be on him. Caught in a cyclical existence between apathy and cruelty, Arthur makes one bad decision that brings about a chain reaction of escalating events in this gritty character study.</span><span style='color:#073763'><br></span><b><u><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>JOKER</span></u></b><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> (R)<br></span></b><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:red;background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>SPECIAL $5.00 PREMIERE THURS, OCT. 3<sup>rd</sup> 7:00 PM!</span></b><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:red'><br></span></b><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>FRI: (5:00) – 8:00<br>SAT: (2:00) – (5:00) – 8:00<br>SUN: (2:00) – (5:00)<br>MON thru THURS: 7:15<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black'>+++++++++++++++++++++++++<br></span></b><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:red'>FALL IN LOVE WITH A MUSIC LEGEND…AGAIN!!<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:#EFEFEF'><b><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>ONE-WEEK-ONLY!!<br></span></b><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>THE HIGHLY-ACCLAIMED LINDA RONSTADT DOCUMENTARY!!<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'><img border=0 width=275 height=408 id="Picture_x0020_28" src="cid:image020.jpg@01D57A0D.9693A680" alt="linda_ronstadt_the_sound_of_my_voice.JPG"></span></b><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'><br><u>LINDA RONSTADT: The Sound of My Voice</u> (PG13)<br></span></b><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2C32'>LINDA RONSTADT: The Sound of My Voice is a musical biography of one of the most successful and versatile female singers of the 20th century -- and one of the most successful recording artists of all time. At the height of unprecedented success, Ronstadt, a restless and adventurous artist, turned away from pop music to explore an astonishing variety of musical styles, from American standards to country to classical operetta before circling back to her family roots with traditional Mexican canciones. Withstanding constant pressure from a risk-averse industry, Linda insisted on following her musical instincts. Today Ronstadt has Parkinson's disease and her magnificent singing voice has been silenced. But rather than letting that voice be lost to history, Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice tells Linda's story through her own words and music, and by such professional colleagues as Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Aaron Neville among many others.</span><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#073763'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:#EFEFEF'><b><u><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>LINDA RONSTADT: The Sound of My Voice</span></u></b><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> (PG13)<br></span></b><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>FRI: (4:00) – 7:00<br>SAT: (1:00) – (4:00) – 7:00<br>SUN: (1:00) – (4:00)<br>MON, TUES, WED: 6:30 <span style='color:red'>(ENDS WEDNESDAY!!)<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='vertical-align:top'><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>++++++++++++++++++++++++<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#E36C0A;background:black;mso-highlight:black'>IT’S THE SEASON FOR SPOOOKY FUN!!</span></b><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#E36C0A'><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'><img border=0 width=277 height=410 id="Picture_x0020_71" src="cid:image008.jpg@01D57A11.92E71C70" alt="addams_family.JPG"></span></b><b><span style='font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'><br><u>THE ADDAMS FAMILY</u> (PG)<br></span></b><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#073763'>Get ready to snap your fingers!
