Hi all Quite a busy lineup this as we finish our second short week in a row and head for the third... which will be a 5 day weekend for lots of people... have not had one of those for years. Which means of course that next week some of the new movies open on Wednesday, and others on Friday. As for this week, it's a bit of something for everyone, the big release being a typically violent offering from Martin Scorsese in Silence, which thoroughly impressed the critics. For more eclectic fare, we have three American movies looking at the darker side of the American experience. For the kiddies there's another instalment of the long-running (and unfortunately not wildly successful) Asterix series. And then we have two romances, one comedy, one drama, from South Africa and India. On the previews side, there are previews all over on Saturday evening For next week's Jamie Foxx actioner, Sleepless. See the previews page and remember to book. Enjoy :-) Released 21 April 2017 Silence (16 V) Table 19 (PG10-12 L) American Pastoral (13 LS) In Dubious Battle (16 LV) Noor Asterix & Obelix: The Mansion of the Gods (PG7-9) All About Love (13 LV) Asterix & Obelix: The Mansion of the Gods (3D) (PG7-9) Shivalinga http://www.moviesite.co.za/new.htm SA Top Tens (commercial, Nouveau, best and worst movies on circuit) http://www.moviesite.co.za/topten.htm The US and UK Top Tens.

I gave him a glass of water. If I had a dollar for every girl that found me unattractive, they would eventually find me attractive. I find it ironic that the colors red, white, and blue stand for freedom until they are flashing behind you. When wearing a bikini, women reveal 90% of their body... men are so polite they only look at the covered parts. Relationships are a lot like algebra. Have you ever looked at your X and wondered Y? America is a country which produces citizens who will cross the ocean to fight for democracy but won't cross the street to vote. You know that tingly little feeling you get when you like someone? That's your common sense leaving your body. Did you know that dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish? My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We'll see about that. I think my neighbour is stalking me as she's been googling my name on her computer. I saw it through my telescope last night. My therapist said that my narcissism causes me to misread social situations. I'm pretty sure she was hitting on me. My 60 year kindergarten reunion is coming up soon and I'm worried about the 175 pounds ve gained since then. The pharmacist asked me my birth date again today. I'm pretty sure shes going to get me something. The location of your mailbox shows you how far away from your house you can be in a robe before you start looking like a mental patient. I think it's pretty cool how Chinese people made a language entirely out of tattoos. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with that expensive triple-panel energy efficient kind. Today, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was very angry and complaining bitterly that the work had been completed a whole year ago but I still hadn't paid for them. Hellllloooooo Just because I'm blonde and flunked Maths at High School doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid. So, I told him just what his fast talking sales guy had told me last year. That in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves! Hellllooooooo? It's now been a year! I told him. There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up. He never called back. I bet he felt like a real idiot!! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- New slogans for United Airlines We have First Class, Business Class, and No Class.
