This week we are proud to open some thing for everyone. First off, we have the animated movie “Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget”. Next, we have “One Life” based on an incredible true story. Next, we have the premiere comedy, “The American Society of Magical Negros”. And last, but not least some thing for the horror fans, “Night Swim”.

It features the voices of Zachary Levi (“Tangled”, “Shazam”), Thandiwe Newton, Bella Ramsey (“Last of Us”) and many more. It has a running time of 101 minutes, is rated PG, and will play daily.

“Based on the book If It’s Not Impossible...: The Life of Sir Nicholas Winton by Barbara Winton, ONE LIFE tells the incredible, emotional true story of Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London broker who visits Prague in December 1938. In a race against time, Winton convinces Trevor Chadwick and Doreen Warriner of the British Committee for Refugees in Czechoslovakia to rescue hundreds of predominantly Jewish children before Nazi occupation closes the borders. Fifty years later, Nicky is haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to bring to safety in England. It’s not until the BBC show “That’s Life!” re-introduces him to some of those he helped rescue that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he carried -- all the while skyrocketing from anonymity to a national hero.” – Bleecker Street
“The American Society of Magical Negros” is an original comedy from director Kobi Libii. it has a running time of 104 minutes, is rated PG with a language warning, and will play daily.
“’The American Society of Magical Negroes’ is a fresh, satirical comedy inspired by the “magical negro” cinematic trope popularized in American cinema and television throughout the 20th Century and first named and criticized by filmmaker Spike Lee. Flipping the trope on its head, ’The American Society of Magical Negroes’ follows a young man, Aren, who is recruited into a secret society of magical Black people who dedicate their lives to a cause of utmost importance: making white people more comfortable. Although initially enamored with his new powers, Aren begins to question the value of using supernatural means to do the very thing he’s felt obligated to do his whole life.” – Focus Features
