072001H1 Harrypotter This week August 21-27, Telluride's Nugget Theatre will be showing three movies. Harry Potter is back for another week. In addition, "Ice Age III" can be seen early in the week, including a matinee on Saturday. "The Ugly Truth" rounds out the week's program.

We know about Harry Potter: watch for the continuation of that story. "Ice Age" is the animated sequel to that series, rated PG for some potentially scary scenes.

"The Ugly Truth" is a romantic comedy, rated R for sexual content, in which Mr. Wrong plays Cyrano to a TV personality looking for Mr. Right. You can probably guess how this turns out.Theuglytruth_smallposter

John Dillinger (Johnny Depp) robbed banks; Melvin Purvis (Christian Bale) had the task of bringing in Dillinger. "Public Enemies" is the story. J. Edgar Hoover (Billy Crudup) named Dillinger the first "public enemy #1" and declared war on crime. During the 1930s recession people across America regarded banks and bankers as more villainous than the gangsters who robbed the banks."Public Enemies" documents rather than glamorizes the story. Rated R for gangster violence and language.
