SUMMARY:ShowNews Academy - Big Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:Directed by John Milius \nStarring Gary Busey\, William Katt\, Jan-Michael Vincent\, Patti D’Arbanville\, Lee Purcell \nEach month ShowNews presents a film at Academy Cinemas picked by a special film industry guest. For August\, the chosen film is the 70s surfing buddy flick BIG WEDNESDAY! \nTickets only $10!\nHappy Hour drinks from 7pm.\nScreening 8:15pm. \nNo matter what rolled in on the tides of time\, California surfing buddies Matt\, Jack and Leory knew they’d stick together. And that they’d be ready when a rare 20-foot swell hit the coast at last. BIG WEDNESDAY celebrates surfing as much as the most dedicated kid who ever waxed a board. It’s also a fascinating 1962-1974 chronicle of friendships and lifestyles in transition. John Milius (APOCALYPSE NOW\, RED DAWN) directs and co-scripts with a passion for the ultimate ride and a truthful feel for those turbulent times.  \nStars Jan-Michael Vincent and William Katt are accomplished surfers; colead Gary Busey (POINT BREAK\, 1991) learned for the role. And the vivid camerawork drops you inside awesome barrels of ocean blue.

SUMMARY:A Tell-Tale Heart\, campaign closing
DESCRIPTION:Gianni Ranzuglia’s short adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s gripping short story The Tell-Tale Heart. \nThis dark\, intense and suspenseful tale follows the descent of a man into madness\, as he becomes obsessed with the vulture-like eye of an old man he cares for. Driven by his paranoia and guilt\, he ultimately commits a horrific act\, only to find himself increasingly haunted by his own conscience\, and the psychological torment that follows. \nThe Tell-Tale Heart is a gothic tragedy that explores themes of repressed guilt\, paranoia\, and the human capacity for self-deception. Our goal is to stay true to the original story while bringing a fresh visual interpretation that will resonate with contemporary audiences. The focal point of view being the self-deceiving\, darkly twisted and menacing intensity of the young protagonist.
