This movie also features Kenneth Branagh as Laurence Olivier, Julia Ormond as Vivien Leigh, and Dame Judi Dench as Dame Sybil Thorndike.

“My Week With Marilyn” runs 101 minutes and is rated R.

PRAISE FOR OSCAR MONTH

Loved "Tinker Tailor," when Jen and I watched it at the Palace Monday night!  Loved it!  I think some of the other patrons were shocked and thoroughly confused, but I thought the acting, direction and script were marvelous.  If you need someone to buy the poster off you, let me know!!! 

Thanks for the great variety of films.  Looking forward to "Marilyn" and "The Artist!" ~JB

Manager’s note: patrons have definitely been baffled by “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.” Following the Monday matinee every patron lingered in the lobby laughing and talking about how they just didn’t get it!  Two nights remain – are you up for the challenge?
