@ the Princess, Jan 20 - 26 (Jackie premiere + 20th Century Women contest!)

FILMS SHOWING Friday Jan 20 to Thursday Jan 26

Strong women headline both Princess locations starting this Friday. 'Jackie' paints a chilling portrait of the former first lady --spectacularly portrayed by Natalie Portman-- in the moments and days after her husband's assassination in Dallas. '20th Century Women' also takes the audience back, this time to California in the late 1970s. Annette Bening is marvellous as Dorothea, a single mom who enlists her boarding house tenants to help in the raising of her teenage son. We're willing to bet that both actresses will receive Oscar attention very soon! [If we could have your attention, read on for a chance to win a pair of passes to '20th Century Women.']

Jackie

"To watch Portman's every move is to not only watch history being recreated, but to also witness history being made." 4/4 stars - Globe & Mail

NOMINATED FOR 3 OSCARS, INCL. BEST ACTRESS. "She stares into the tiny mirror of the Air Force One bathroom, adjusting her pink pillbox hat and equally pink, double-breasted knockoff Chanel suit – a vision of carefully calculated grace, and a template for all First Ladies to follow. It is Nov.

20th Century Women

14A

"A simply glorious Annette Bening leads a stellar cast in Mike Mills' semiautobiographical story about a bohemian woman raising a teen in the age of 1970s feminism and punk rock. Note to the Academy, make sure that Best Actress nomination happens." - Rolling Stone

Oscar-nominated for Best Original Screenplay. “Daringly freeform, writer-director Mike Mills’s wise, domestic comedy is first and foremost an attitude: Southern California, loose-limbed, Converse-clad and easing down the road on a skateboard.
