RRR Opening at the Cinema Art Theater in Lewes
Opening January 27, the Rehoboth Beach Film Society’s Cinema Art Theater presents RRR, an action-fantasy film that centers around two freedom fighters and their epic journey.
Set in the 1920s and spoken in the Telugu language, RRR is a ficititious story about two legendary revolutionaries and their journey away from home. Kknown for its over-the-top action scenes, like out-running tigers and kick-flipping over motorcycles — RRR chronicles the unlikely friendship of Alluri Sitarama Raju (Ram Charan) and Komaram Bheem (N.T. Rama Rao Jr.), two Indian freedom fighters who unite to revolt against the British Raj. The international success of the critically acclaimed film — which has already generated Oscar buzz — exceeded audience expectations worldwide, including director S.S. Rajamouli's.

It's cinema at its finest!
