This fascinating doc about Sarah MacLachlan&#8217;s ground-breaking all-female concert series is scheduled to align with\u00a0 International Women\u2019s Day, which takes place the day prior. Rounding out the winter schedule is\u00a0 another Oscar favourite, <em>Hamnet <\/em>on March 23<sup>rd<\/sup>, which tells the story of love and loss that inspired the\u00a0 creation of Shakespeare&#8217;s timeless masterpiece, Hamlet.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe response to our first matinee in January was overwhelmingly positive,\u201d says Laura Kennedy, long-time Reel Alternatives committee member. \u201cIt was an easy decision to offer 2 pm shows in addition to\u00a0 the regular 7pm screenings for the rest of the winter season, and we\u2019ll see how it goes.\u201d Once longer days return in spring, the group will return to an evening-only schedule.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sentimental Value <\/em>has earned a ton of critical buzz during awards season with nine Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, Director, Screenplay, Editing, International Film, Lead Actress (for Renate\u00a0 Reinsve) and Supporting Actor and Actress nods for Stellan Skarsg\u00e5rd, Elle Fanning and Inga Ibsdotter\u00a0 Lilleaas. This masterful drama is an intimate, moving, and often funny film about a director\u2019s bid to revive his career and repair his family\u2019s broken bonds. Sentimental Value is generously sponsored by\u00a0 Hear Well, Be Well Huntsville.\u00a0Tickets for all films are available for $10 online at reelalternativeshuntsville.ca or algonquintheatre.ca, at the door or by calling the Algonquin Theatre box office at 705-789-4975. Reel Alternatives Huntsville gratefully acknowledges their partnership with Film Circuit, presented by the Toronto International Film\u00a0 Festival, and its sponsors and supporters.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sentimental Value, Lilith Fair: Building A Mystery, and Hamnet will all have two screenings With the success of its first matinee last month, Reel Alternatives is adding afternoon screenings for [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1904,"featured_media":215754,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1187],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-215578","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
