MOLLY’S GAME

MARCH 2 – 8
MOLLY’S GAME

Molly’s Game is based on the true story of Molly Bloom (Jessica Chastain), an Olympic-class skier who ran the world’s most exclusive high-stakes poker game for a decade before being arrested in the middle of the night by 17 FBI agents wielding automatic weapons. Her players included Hollywood royalty, sports stars, business titans and finally, unbeknownst to her, the Russian mob. Her only ally was her criminal defense lawyer Charlie Jaffey (Idris Elba), who learned that there was much more to Molly than the tabloids led us to believe.
Dir. Aaron Sorkin / 2017 / US / 140 min

“…a typically staccato and silver-tongued drama that boasts a zillion killer lines, at least two of the year’s most exciting performances, and a rare understanding of the difference between power and pride.” – David Ehrlich, indieWire

“Aaron Sorkin’s directorial debut gives ‘poker queen’ Molly Bloom the royal treatment she deserves. Star Jessica Chastain proves as eloquent in silence as she does in speech and deals audiences a winning hand.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

“A dense, dynamic, compulsively entertaining affair, whose central role makes stunning use of Chastain’s stratospheric talent.” – Peter Debruge, Variety

SCREENING: FRI 3/2 6:30PM; TUE 3/6 4:00PM, WED 3/7 7:00PM; THU 3/8 4:00PM
