    “A Haunting in Venice” - (PG-13: 1 hour, 43 minutes) -  “A Haunting in Venice” is set in eerie, post-World War II Venice on All Hallows’ Eve and is a terrifying mystery featuring the return of the celebrated sleuth, Hercule Poirot. Now retired and living in self-imposed exile in the world’s most glamorous city, Poirot reluctantly attends a séance at a decaying, haunted palazzo. When one of the guests is murdered, the detective is thrust into a sinister world of shadows and secrets. Final showtime Thursday, Nov. 9 at 2 p.m.

    “Titanic the Musical” - (PG; 2 hours, 25 minutes) - ‘Breathtaking’ (the Guardian) and ‘Magnificent’ (the Telegraph)! A stunning and stirring production focusing on the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of the Titanic’s passengers who each boarded with stories and personal ambitions of their own. All innocently unaware of the fate awaiting them. With music and lyrics by Maury Yeston and a book by Peter Stone—the pair have collectively won an Academy Award, an Emmy Award, an Olivier Award, and three Tony Awards.

    “Killers of the Flower Moon” - (R; 3 hours, 26 minutes) - At the turn of the 20th century, oil brought a fortune to the Osage Nation, who became some of the richest people in the world overnight. The wealth of these Native Americans immediately attracted white interlopers, who manipulated, extorted, and stole as much Osage money as they could before resorting to murder. Based on a true story and told through the improbable romance of Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Mollie Kyle (Lily Gladstone), “Killers of the Flower Moon” is an epic western crime saga, where real love crosses paths with unspeakable betrayal. Also starring Robert De Niro, Jesse Plemons, Tantoo Cardinal, Cara Jade Myers, JaNae Collins, and Jillian Dion.

    “Klimt & the Kiss” - Exhibition On Screen - (1 hour, 30 minutes) -  The Kiss by Gustav Klimt is one of the most recognized and reproduced paintings in the world. It is perhaps the most popular poster on student dorm walls from Beijing to Boston. Painted in Vienna around 1908, the evocative image of an unknown embracing couple has captivated viewers with its mystery, sensuality and dazzling materials ever since it was created. But just what lies behind the appeal of the painting – and just who was the artist that created it? Delving into the details of real gold, decorative designs, symbolism and simmering erotica, a close study of the painting takes us to the remarkable turn of the century Vienna when a new world was battling with the old. Playing Thursday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. and Friday, Nov. 17 at 2 p.m. Tickets: $15 Adult, $13 member, and $5 youth 18 and under.

    “Slow Food” - a Lincoln County Community Theater production - Opening Nov. 30. “Slow Food” is Sartre meeting Seinfeld in a Greek restaurant. Irene and Peter, two vacationing empty-nesters, arrive famished at a Palm Springs restaurant after traveling from the East Coast and enduring the typical travel frustrations. But their well-meaning waiter wants so much to shepherd them through the perfect dining experience that nothing — not even a bread basket — can reach the table. And yet, perhaps the slow service is more of a gift than either of them realize… sometimes waiting can open a heart. Starring Carole Florman, Tom Handel, and Gregory J. Hawks. Showtimes: At 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 30 and Friday, Dec. 1; Saturday, Dec. 2 at 2 and 7:30 p.m. and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 3. Tickets on sale! $20 adult, $18 member, and $5 youth 18 and under.
