Pope Francis – A Man of His Word opens in Baltimore on May 18th, 2018.
Story: Martin Comity, trumpet player, jazz musician. Booze hound. Addict. Martin looks for the next thing to keep his mind occupied. Drink, women, drugs…and then a drug called New Blue comes along. And let’s just say this drug ain’t like anything Martin has tried before. For one thing, it transports him to another realm of being. Literally. Or maybe it’s all just in his burned-out mind?

Happy weekend, everyone! I’ve got passes for the Baltimore area screening of Love, Simon! Synopsis!
Everyone deserves a great love story. But for seventeen-year old Simon Spier it’s a little more complicated: he’s yet to tell his family or friends he’s gay and he doesn’t actually know the identity of the anonymous classmate he’s fallen for online. Resolving both issues proves hilarious, terrifying and life-changing. Directed by Greg Berlanti (Riverdale, The Flash, Supergirl), written by Isaac Aptaker & Elizabeth Berger (This is Us), and based on Becky Albertalli’s acclaimed novel, LOVE, SIMON is a funny and heartfelt coming-of-age story about the thrilling ride of finding yourself and falling in love.
Who doesn’t love a teen love story movie? Plus, this one’s got the fabulous Katherine Langford from 13 Reasons Why, along with Jennifer Garner and Josh Duhamel! Let’s go!
UPDATE – THIS SCREENING STARTS AT 7:30 PM, NOT 7! WINNERS TAKE NOTE!

From visionary director Ava DuVernay comes Disney’s “A Wrinkle in Time,” an epic adventure based on Madeleine L’Engle’s timeless classic which takes audiences across dimensions of time and space, examining the nature of darkness versus light and, ultimately, the triumph of love.
