Nim's Island Held Over

The weekend of May 9th we will be showing the new Jodie Foster movie, Nim's Island for the second and last week.

Nim lves on a deserted island with her scientist father. She spends her days guided by her imagination through adventures in the woods accompanied by her wonderful animal friends. Nim's passion is books, especially those by Alex Rover, a world adventurer.

One night when her father gets lost at sea, Nim sends a letter to her literary hero pleading for help. Little does Nim know, that Alex Rover is a woman (Jodie Foster). Alexandra is agoraphobic and never leaves the house. She rarely even opens her front door. Alex also has a wild imagination, whereas her fictional character Alex Rover (also Gerard Butler) talks to her, mocks her, and gives her pep talks. When they find Nim's Letter, fictional Alex badgers Alexandra until he finally convinces her to leave the confines of her townhouse to go and help Nim. After a long and terrifying journey, both of the Alex's make it to Nim's Island and try to help find Nim's father and the secret of Nim's Island.
