Nuggets from the Nugget, 8/6-12/2010

04 Aug Nuggets from the Nugget, 8/6-12/2010

Telluride's Nugget Theatre will be busy with music during the Telluride Jazz Celebration this weekend, Friday through Sunday.

On Monday, it's back to movies. "Despicable Me" (rated PG) returns for two showings a day through Thursday. See last week's "Nuggets" for a description.

The late movie, Monday-Thursday, is "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" (PG), a Disney movie that gives a nod to the old Disney masterpiece, "Fantasia". Only the older audience members will remember Mickey Mouse doing battle with enchanted brooms and buckets. I personally remember nightmares about that sequence. In this case, we are talking about Nicholas Cage as a good magician with a young apprentice who has the "Gift". Together they must prevent bad magicians from the time of King Arthur gaining power in today's world. Got it?
