Only Aibileen (Viola Davis), the housekeeper of Skeeter’s best friend, will talk at � rst. But as the pair continue the collaboration, more women decide to come forward, and as it turns out, they have quite a lot to say.

• Taking Chance� ursday, March 19th at 2:00pm

Taking Chance is the remarkable true story of one soldier’s death in battle, another soldier’s journey of discovery, and a nation’s reverence and gratitude towards its war dead.

Colonel Michael Strobl (Kevin Bacon) volunteers to escort the remains of Lance Corporal Chance Phelps back to his hometown in Wyoming. Now, on a trip across America’s heartland, Strobl will � nd himself on an unexpectedly emotional sojourn into the soul of a county mourning not only Phelps, but all of our country’s fallen heroes.

• Jack ReacherSunday, March 29th at 3:30pm

One morning in an ordinary town, � ve people are shot dead in a seemingly random attack. All evidence points to a single suspect: an ex-military sniper who is quickly brought into custody. � e man’s interrogation yields one statement: Get Jack Reacher (Tom Cruise). Reacher, an enigmatic ex-Army investigator, believes the authorities have the right man but agrees to help the sniper’s defense attorney (Rosamund Pike).
