		The rumor circling the halls is that Beecham House (the home for retired musicians) is soon to play host to a new resident. Word is, it's a star. Reginald, Wilfred and Cecily are in for a special shock when the new arrival turns out to be none other than their former singing partner, Jean. Her subsequent career as a star soloist, and the ego that accompanied it, split up their long friendship and ended her marriage to Reggie, who takes the news of her arrival particularly hard. "Masterpiece Theatre comfort food, a chance to watch fine actors act without too many complications." -- Globe and Mail

		On November 4, 1979, Iranian militants stormed the American embassy in Tehran and captured dozens of American hostages, sparking a 444-day ordeal. There's a little-known footnote to the crisis: six Americans escaped and a midlevel agent named Antonio Mendez devised an ingenious yet incredibly risky plan to rescue them. "Argo is one of the best movies of the year." -- Richard Roeper. Because of inclement weather during our March showing of Argo, we are happy to provide a second chance to see this year's Academy Award-winning Best Picture.
