(500) Days of Summer (Nov. 1)
Synopsis: Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love. Girl doesn’t. This post modern love story is never what we expect it to be — it’s thorny yet exhilarating, funny and sad, a twisted journey of highs and lows that doesn’t quite go where we think it will. When Tom, a hapless greeting card copywriter and hopeless romantic, is blindsided after his girlfriend Summer dumps him, he shifts back and forth through various periods of their 500 days “together” to try to figure out where things went wrong. His reflections ultimately lead him to finally rediscover his true passions in life.
Caddyshack (Nov. 1)
Synopsis: It’s the snobs against the slobs! From the brilliant comic minds of director/writer Harold Ramis (Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day, Analyze This), writer Brian Doyle-Murray (Groundhog Day, Wayne’s World) and superstar funnymen Chevy Chase (Vacation movies, Fletch), Rodney Dangerfield (Back to School) and Bill Murray (Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day, Stripes) comes the hilarious cult hit Caddyshack. While caddying at a snooty country club, ambitious young Danny (Michael O’Keefe) goes for a college scholarship. But first he has to impress elitist Judge Smails (Ted Knight – Mary Tyler Moore, Too Close for Comfort) and win the big golf tournament. Meanwhile, a crude construction tycoon goes to extremes to be accepted into the exclusive club, and a psychotic groundskeeper stalks a rampaging gopher. It all adds up to one of the greatest sports movies of all time and a highly quotable, unforgettably classic comedy.
