Nominated for Oscar. Another 8 wins & 21 nominations A Single Man A SINGLE MAN is based on the novel of the same name by Christopher Isherwood. Set in Los Angeles in 1962, at the height of the Cuban missile crisis, it is the story of a British college professor (Colin Firth) who is struggling to find meaning to his life after the death of his long time partner. The story is a romantic tale of love interrupted, the isolation that is an inherent part of the human condition, and ultimately the importance of the seemingly smaller moments in life.

  Organized by Kentucky Fairness Alliance and Maiden Alley Cinema, We Are Dad Kentucky Fairness Alliance (KFA) and Maiden Alley Cinema will present the moving adoption documentary "We Are Dad" on Saturday, March 13, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. in Paducah. With last year's attempt to deny Kentucky's children a loving home simply based upon the marital status, sexual orientation, and/or gender identity of the parents, "We Are Dad" provides a refreshing model for how these families can succeed and live just like any other family. "We Are Dad" is a must-see film that, according to Out.com, will take you "into the daily lives of this very remarkable family. The result is a powerful bit of activist filmmaking." Plan to watch "We Are Dad" on March 13 at 4:00 PM at Maiden Alley Cinema (112 Maiden Alley, Paducah). A panel discussion will follow with Jody Cofer, KFA Board Member and former Chairperson, Dr. Peggy Munke, Associate Professor of Social Work at Murray State University, and Travis Myles, KFA Board Chairperson. 
Their days of peace are over. The Village The Village depicts the tale of an isolated town confronting the astonishing truth that lies just outside its borders. At first glance, this village seems picture perfect, but this close-knit community lives with the frightening knowledge that creatures reside in the surrounding woods. The evil and foreboding force is so unnerving that none dare venture beyond the borders of the village and into the woods. But when curious, headstrong Lucius Hunt plans to step beyond the boundaries of the town and into the unknown, his bold move threatens to forever change the future of the village. $4.00 All Admissions Sponsored by: 1 HOUR & 48 MINUTES • 2004 • Directed by M. Night Shyamalan

And yet, Bad can’t help but reach for salvation with the help of Jean (Golden Globe Nominee MAGGIE GYLLENHAAL), a journalist who discovers the real man behind the musician.

Faith evolves. Creation Creation is the powerful and true-life tale of Charles Darwin and the most explosive idea in history. A world-renowned scientist, and a dedicated family man struggling to accept his daughter’s death, Darwin (Paul Bettany) is torn between his love for his deeply religious wife (Jennifer Connelly) and his own growing belief in a world where God has no place. He finds himself caught in a battle between faith and reason, love and truth. This is the extraordinary story of Charles Darwin and how his masterwork The Origin of Species came to light. It tells of a global revolution played out in the confines of a small English village; a passionate marriage torn apart by the most provocative idea in history--evolution; and a theory saved from extinction by the logic of a child. John Collee wrote the screen adaptation, based on the book Annie's Box by Randal Keynes, the great, great-grandson of Charles Darwin. Described by director Jon Amiel as part ghost story, part psychological thriller, part heart-wrenching love story, the film promises a Charles Darwin as you've never seen him before. 1 HOUR & 48 MINUTES • 2009
