The Rotunda
Exploring the comedic twists and emotional turns in one couple’s journey across contemporary America, AWAY WE GO is the new movie from Academy Award-winning director Sam Mendes, from the first original screenplay by novelists Dave Eggers & Vendela Vida, and featuring music by singer/songwriter Alexi Murdoch.
Longtime (and now thirtysomething) couple Burt (John Krasinski) and Verona (Maya Rudolph) are going to have a baby. The pregnancy progresses smoothly, but six months in, the pair is put off and put out by the cavalierly delivered news from Burt’s parents Jerry and Gloria (Jeff Daniels and Catherine O’Hara) that the eccentric elder Farlanders are moving out of Colorado – thereby eliminating the expectant couple’s main reason for living there.

“Western Skies” set on a South Dakota ranch in the 1940s is the story of a broken-hearted girl from the East in the war-torn 1940’s. Ann flees to the South Dakota ranch of relatives she has never known. Her strength, love, and courage are regained under the great skies of the West.
Western Skies is the debut film for director Skye Ogilvie, who said, “My goal was to make a simple, authentic movie with real western people. My motivation was to create a tribute to the memory of my cousin, aunt, and father who passed away. This was accomplished with $140, a borrowed camera, and the generous help of family and friends. I would like to thank everyone who enthusiastically donated their time, effort, and resources so that this film could be presented to an audience.”

The Spooky Movie Film Festival is proud to announce the world premiere screening of C.W. Prather’s new documentary, EVERY OTHER DAY IS HALLOWEEN, Saturday, June 27, at 8:20 p.m. at the AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center in Silver Spring, MD.
This comedic documentary chronicles the career and legacy of Dick Dyszel, whose television alter-egos, “Count Gore De Vol,” “Captain 20″ and “Bozo the Clown” helped raise generations of Washingtonians in the 1970s and 1980s (almost a half-million “Channel 20 Club Cards” were distributed during this time). But it was in the 1990s that Dick helped revolutionized the concept of entertainment-on-demand when he launched the first-ever streaming horror host show, “Creature Feature: The Weekly Web Program,”-predating Hulu, YouTube, and the iPod by years-which opened him up to the world.
