“Florence Foster Jenkins” Based on the true story of Florence Foster Jenkins, a New York heiress who dreamt of becoming an opera singer, despite having a terrible singing voice. The director Stephen Frears keeps things light in this treatment of the story of the famously bad singer and a 1944 concert she gave at Carnegie Hall. Meryl Streep plays the singer in question and seems to relish the job of assaulting our eardrums. Simon Helberg, portraying her pianist, really makes the movie with his understated reactions to her off-key howls. Also starring Hugh Grant.

This film is playing at 2 and 7 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 23, Saturday, Sept. 24, Sunday, Sept. 25, Wednesday, Sept. 28 and Thursday, Sept. 29.
