April 4 “Robin Hood” (PG-13) 1 hr 56 min
Robin of Loxley (Taron Egerton) a war-hardened Crusader and his Moorish
commander (Jamie Foxx) mount an audacious revolt against the corrupt English
crown in a thrilling action-adventure packed with gritty battlefield exploits, mind
-blowing fight choreography, and a timeless romance.

April 18– “The Wife” (R) 1 hr 41 min Joan and Joe remain complements after nearly 40 years of marriage. Where Joe is casual,
Joan is elegant. Where Joe is vain, Joan is self-effacing. And where Joe enjoys his very public
role as the great American novelist, Joan pours her considerable intellect, grace, charm and
diplomacy into the private role of a great man's wife. As Joe is about to be awarded the No-
bel Prize for his acclaimed and prolific body of work, Joan starts to think about the shared
compromises, secrets and betrayals.
