Forum Theatre Screens THE SPECTACULAR NOW This Weekend

By: Movies News Desk Oct. 04, 2013

The Forum Theatre will be showing the best of independent cinema this weekend with THE SPECTACULAR NOW, screening tonight, October 4, at 7:30 and Sunday at 3 p.m.

With sly humor and an intensity of feeling, The Spectacular Now (directed by James Ponsoldt) creates a vivid, three-dimensional portrait of youth confronting the funny, thrilling and perilous business of modern love and adulthood. This is the tale of Sutter Keely (Miles Teller), a High School senior and effortless charmer, and of how he unexpectedly falls in love with "the good girl" Aimee Finecky (Shailene Woodley). What starts as an unlikely romance becomes a sharp-eyed, straight-up snapshot of the heady confusion and haunting Passion of youth - one that doesn't look for tidy truths.

The film was written by Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber (500) DAYS OF SUMMER and also features wonderful supporting turns from Brie Larson, Kyle Chandler, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

THE SPECTACULAR NOW runs Friday @ 7:30 Sunday @ 3pm, All Seats $10; Seniors 65 and Older $9. Running Time 93m In 35MM. Follow Forum on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/forumtheatrearts.
