...Crowe’s amusing 2000 cult favorite. Among her character’s transgressions: inviting Alex (Beckinsale), her future daughter-in-law, to join a three-way as part of an unconventional “getting to know you” exercise. Sam, her uber-straightlaced son (Christian Bale), would not approve. Sam and Alex are the best-looking Harvard grad school alums since Reese Witherspoon’s law school party girl in Legally Blonde. Family issues aside, one leaves the film wishing that life imitated art more often. Laurel Canyon screens...

...Cradle Will Rock. You’ll likely be thankful for the energetic direction in this “Brechtian labor musical” about unionization in early 20th-century Steeltown, USA, directed by Patrick Hosfield ’05. Think Newsies, minus Disney, Christian Bale and that obnoxious “Seize the Day” song, but with a considerably more punchy and heart-wrenching dose of social commentary.
