Becoming Jane by Graham Bernstein, Douglas Rae
Anne Hathaway (The
Devil Wears Prada, The
Princess Diaries) gives a radiant performance as a young, love-struck Jane
Austen in the witty and engaging romantic comedy “Becoming Jane” from Miramax
Films. It’s the untold romance that inspired the novels of one of the world’s
most celebrated authors. When the dashing Tom Lefroy
(James McAvoy, The
Last King of Scotland), a reckless and penniless lawyer-to-be, enters
Jane’s life, he offends the emerging writer’s sense and sensibility. Soon their
clashing egos set off sparks that ignite a passionate romance and fuel Jane’s
dream of doing the unthinkable – marrying for love. Donation

The Sandlot by David Mickey Evans and Robert Gunter
It’s the early 1960s and fifth-grader Scotty Smalls (Tom Guiry) has just moved into town with his folks (Karen Allen
and Denis Leary). Kids call him a dork – he can’t even throw a baseball! But
that changes when the leader of the neighborhood gang recruits him to play in
the nearby sandlot field. It’s the beginning of a magical summer of baseball,
wild adventures, first kisses and fearsome confrontations with the dreaded
beast and its owner (James Earl Jones) that live behind the left field fence.
Soon nine boys have become best friends, Scotty is part of a team, and their
leader has become a local legend in this hilarious and warmhearted comedy. Donation
