Star Trek - Open Captioned Trailer

Alamo Drafthouse Cinema on South Lamar will be showing the open captioned movie "Star Trek."

Screening: Saturday, May 23, 2009 - 12:40 pm



Director: J.J. Abrams

Rated: PG-13

Runtime: 126 min

"Blasting onto the screen at warp speed and remaining there for two hours, the new and improved Star Trek will transport fans to sci-fi nirvana." - Todd McCarthy, VARIETY

The greatest adventure of all time begins with STAR TREK, the incredible story of a young crew’s maiden voyage onboard the most advanced starship ever created: the U.S.S. Enterprise. On a journey filled with action, comedy and cosmic peril, the new recruits must find a way to stop an evil being whose mission of vengeance threatens all of mankind.

Set before the original TV series, this JJ Abrams extravaganza gives us an action-packed lesson in the shared history of lil' Cap'n Kirk and and his stone-faced friend, Spock.

Zachary Quinto (HEROES) stars as the young Spock (while Leonard Nimoy returns to the iconic role to play the half-Vulcan, half-human in his advancing age!). And Chris Pine fills the sizable shoes of the legendary captain of the USS Enterprise made famous by William Shatner.

But what may be the greatest bit of casting of all time ever is Simon Pegg (SHAUN OF THE DEAD) as Scotty and Eric Bana (HULK, CHOPPER) as the nemesis of the Enterprise!

Kid Policy: 18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with a parent or guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed.

Director: Danny Boyle

Rated: PG-13

Runtime: 120 min

From director Danny Boyle (28 DAYS LATER, TRAINSPOTTING) comes a surprising and brilliant excursion into Bollywood.

SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE is the story of Jamal Malik, an 18 year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai, who is about to experience the biggest day of his life. With the whole nation watching, he is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees on India's "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?"

But when the show breaks for the night, police arrest him on suspicion of cheating; how could a street kid know so much? Desperate to prove his innocence, Jamal tells the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up, of their adventures together on the road, of vicious encounters with local gangs, and of Latika, the girl he loved and lost. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show's questions.

Intrigued by Jamal's story, the jaded Police Inspector begins to wonder what a young man with no apparent desire for riches is really doing on this game show?

When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out...
