Film Details:
The Princess Bride – Friday night
Friday, September 22 at 7PM, Rated PG, 98 min, Directed by Rob Reiner
A high-spirited adventure that pits true love against inconceivable odds, “The Princess Bride” has charmed legions of fans with its irreverent gags, eccentric ensemble, and dazzling swordplay. A kid, home sick from school, grudgingly allows his grandfather to read him a dusty storybook—which is how we meet the innocent Buttercup (Robin Wright), about to marry the nefarious Prince Humperdinck though her heart belongs to Westley (Cary Elwes). The wedding plans are interrupted, however, by a mysterious pirate, a vengeful Spaniard, and a good-natured giant, in a tale full of swashbuckling, romance, and outrageously hilarious spoofery. Directed by Rob Reiner from an endlessly quotable script by William Goldman, “The Princess Bride” reigns as a fairy-tale classic.
“It’s a lively, fun-loving, but nevertheless epic look at the nature of true love.” – The Washington Post
Nothing’s For Free – Saturday night
Saturday, September 23 at 8PM, Not Rated, 104 min, Directed by Derek Westerlund
Every sport has its Dog Town and Z Boys or Riding Giants. Nothing’s For Free is the real story of the birth and legacy of freeride mountain biking. Chronicling the blue-collar story and rise of a cult sport to a global phenomenon that put the race-driven sport of mountain biking on the map in the world of action sports and the mainstream. Outside Studios, in association with Freeride Entertainment, breaks boundaries in documentary filmmaking, taking a step beyond the talking head interview and deep into the mindset of its cast. Nothing’s for Free features the biggest names in mountain biking, from the early pioneers of adventure to modern-day internet superstars like Danny Macaskill and Brandon Semenuk.
“This film represents over 30 years with a front row seat to the Freeride revolution. The partnership between Freeride Entertainment, Outside Studios, and Pinkbike has been paramount in bringing this modern day tale of risk vs reward to the mountain biking world and beyond.”
Marcel The Shell With Shoes On – Sunday night
Sunday, September 24 at 7PM, Rated PG, 90 min, Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp

Once part of a sprawling community of shells, they now live alone as the sole survivors of a mysterious tragedy.
