Theirs is a complex journey through the beauty and the heartbreak of a relationship struggling to survive. In this new take on the iconic love story, four-time Oscar nominee Cooper (American Sniper, American Hustle, Silver Linings Playbook) makes his directorial debut, and also stars alongside multiple award-winning, music superstar Gaga in her first leading role in a major motion picture.</p><p><b>Friday, March 15: <i>The Favourite</i></b><br>This film portrays early 8th century England at war with the French. A frail Queen Anne (Olivia Colman) occupies the throne and her close friend Lady Sarah Churchill (Rachel Weisz) governs the country in her stead while tending to Anne's ill health and mercurial temper. When a new servant Abigail Masham (Emma Stone) arrives, her charm endears her to Sarah who takes her under her wing and Abigail sees a chance to return to her aristocratic roots. As the politics of war become quite time consuming for Sarah, Abigail steps into the breach to fill in as the Queen's companion, their friendship helping her to fulfill her ambitions and she will let nothing stand in her way.</p><p><b>Documentaries</b></p><p><table width="1" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" align="right"><tr><td><img src="../1812/images/activemeasures.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="388" hspace="0" vspace="0" border="0"><br></td></tr><tr><td class="blut1"></td></tr><tr><td align="center" class="blut1"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="6" alt="" border="0"></td></tr></table><b>Sunday, March 17: <i>Active Measures</i></b><br>(followed by a 30-minute discussion)<br>The Los Angeles Times describes the movie as "A crash course in accepting that the 2016 U.S. election results were the greatest espionage operation in world history." Filmmaker Jack Bryan exposes a 30-year history of covert political warfare devised by Vladimir Putin to disrupt, and ultimately control, world events. The documentary follows a trail of money, real estate, mob connections and recorded confessions to expose an insidious plot that leads directly to the White House. With democracy hanging in the balance, <i>Active Measures</i> is a must-see.</p><p><b>Monday, March 18: <i>Fahrenheit 11/9</i></b><br>(followed by a 30-minute discussion)<br>Filmmaker Michael Moore examines the current state of American politics, particularly the Donald Trump presidency and gun violence, while highlighting the power of grassroots democratic movements.</p><p>All movies are shown at 3:00 pm.
