CineView Saskatchewan is pleased to open its Winter-Spring 2012 season on Wednesday, January 11 with The Way, directed by Emilio Estevez, and starring his father Martin Sheen. Martin Sheen plays Tom, an American opthalmologist who finds out that his son (played by Emilio Estevez) has been killed in a freak accident during a pilgrimage along a route known as The Way of St. James in northwestern Spain. After arriving in France to collect his son's remains, he changes his plans and, using his son's guidebook and backpack, embarks on the 800 km pilgrimage that his son started, in an attempt to honour his son's memory. Along the way, he encounters a number of eccentric travellers who, despite their differences, come together to form a kind of surrogate family and support each other. The film is set against the gorgeous vistas of France and Spain. It is a moving and potent character study and a journey of self-discovery.
Individual movie tickets will be on sale in the theatre lobby starting at 7:00 p.m. Please note that the price of individual tickets is now $10.00. Season passes for all four films are still $25. This represents a savings of $15 for four films, or 37.5%. They are available immediately at Post Horizon Booksellers, 57 High St. W. and will also be available at the Saskatchewan Festival of Words office (upstairs in the Moose Jaw Cultural Centre) starting January 10.
The film starts promptly at 7:30 p.m. If you purchase a season pass, you will also need to get a ticket for each movie from the CineView table (same as in the fall) to give the usher at the entrance.
The other movies for the winter-spring season are as follows:
February 15 - A Dangerous Method
March 21 - Pink Ribbons, Inc.
April 18 - The Artist
