fm1049 is proud to present the Vancouver Premiere Screening of "Revolutionary Road" on Wednesday, January 7th at 7:00pm at Scotiabank Theatre.

Adapted from the revealing novel by Richard Yates, "Revolutionary Road" is an incisive portrait of an American marriage seen through the eyes of Frank (three-time Academy Award® nominee Leonardo DiCaprio) and April (five-time Academy Award® nominee Kate Winslet) Wheeler. Yates's story of 1950's America poses a question that has been reverberating through modern relationships ever since: can two people break away from the ordinary without breaking apart?  CLICK HERE to watch the trailer.

Based on an extraordinary true story, Defiance is an epic tale of family, honor, vengeance and salvation in World War II.  The year is 1941 and the Jews of Eastern Europe are being massacred by the thousands.  Managing to escape certain death, three brothers take refuge in the dense surrounding woods they have known since childhood.  There they begin their desperate battle against Nazis.  Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber and Jamie Bell star as brothers who turn a primitive struggle to survive into something far more consequential-a way to avenge the deaths of their loved ones by saving thousands of others. CLICK HERE to watch the trailer.

Hoarse Raven Theatre presents Western Canada's longest running interactive comedy- the wildest, wackiest wedding ever imagined! The Wedding begins with the traditional, but hilarious ceremony at Vancouver's heritage landmark, St. Andrew's Wesley United Church. The audience members, who are greeted as wedding guests, meet the show's colourful characters: the feuding Nunzio and Vitale families, the best friends of the bride and groom, the charismatic minister and the brooding ex-boyfriend.

After the ceremony, the wedding guests and wedding party go on to the Queen Elizabeth Theatre Restaurant (Hamilton and Georgia Streets) for the wedding reception. Celebrations include dancing, singing, a Vegas-style lounge act and, of course, a scrumptious home-cooked (Nona's recipes) Italian buffet dinner. Learn juicy family secrets; get drawn into lover's quarrels and family disagreements; keep your eyes and ears open at all times as this is one wedding where anything can happen.

fm1049 is proud to present the Vancouver Premiere Screening of "Inkheart" on Monday, January 19 at 7:00pm at Scotiabank Theatre.

Based on the best-selling book by Cornelia Funke, "Inkheart" is a fantasy adventure that sends a father and daughter on a quest through worlds both real and imagined. Mortimer "Mo" Folchart (Brendan Fraser) and his 12-year-old daughter, Meggie (Eliza Hope Bennett), share a passion for books.  What they also share is a unique gift for bringing characters from books to life when they read aloud.  But there is a danger: for every character brought to life from a book, a real person disappears into its pages. CLICK HERE to watch the trailer.
