COLOSSAL OPENING AT THE CINEMA ART THEATER
Starting on May 19th the Rehoboth Beach Film Society’s Cinema Art Theater will present COLOSSAL, an action drama with cunningly presented humor.
Gloria (Anne Hathaway) is an out-of-work party girl who, after getting kicked out of her apartment by her boyfriend, is forced to leave her life in New York and move back to her hometown. When news reports surface that a giant creature is destroying Seoul, South Korea, Gloria gradually comes to the realization that she is somehow connected to this far-off phenomenon. As events begin to spin out of control, Gloria must determine why her seemingly insignificant existence has such a colossal effect on the fate of the world. [2017, Canada/Spain, Runtime: 109 minutes, Rated: R]
John Serba of “MLive.com” asserts “You can sense the vigor and vision in the final work, a desire to tell a familiar story in an unusual fashion, and it’s sneakily funny, poignant, provocative and surreal.” COLOSSAL also stars Jason Sudeikis, Dan Stevens, Austin Stowell, and Tim Blake Nelson with performances that will ensure you have a good time watching this film.
Screening times are 4:00 pm on Friday (May 19), 7:00 pm on Saturday (May 20), 4:00 pm on Sunday (May 21), 4:00 pm on Wednesday (May 24) as well as 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm on Thursday (May 25).
