This week at the Harbor Theater
“Death On the Nile” - (PG-13, run time is 2 hours, 7 minutes) - Kenneth Branagh once again plays Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot with his curled moustache and elegant charm. Detective Poirot’s Egyptian vacation aboard a glamorous river steamer on the Nile turns into a terrifying search for a murderer when a picture-perfect couple's idyllic honeymoon is tragically cut short. Set against an epic landscape of sweeping desert vistas and the majestic Giza pyramids, it features a cosmopolitan group of stylish 1930s-dressed travelers, and enough wicked twists and turns to leave audiences guessing until the final, shocking denouement. Plays at 2 and 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 2 and at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 3.
“Vertigo” - The final offering in this year’s “Best of Hitchcock” Classic Series, starring Jimmy Stewart and Kim Novack, plays on Thursday, March 3 at 2 p.m. with an in-house pre-show talk by Dr. Jon Cavallero, Professor of Rhetoric, Film and Screen Studies at Bates College.
“The Batman” – (PG, run time is 2 hours, 56 minutes) Special matinee March 5 at 2 p.m. for families … bring all the kids! Proof of vaccination required for all adults and children over 5. Age 5 and under may attend with vaccinated adults. Masks are required at all times except when eating or drinking.
Batman is back! Two years of stalking the streets as The Batman (Robert Pattinson), striking fear into the hearts of criminals, has led Bruce Wayne deep into the shadows of Gotham City. With only a few trusted allies—Alfred Pennyworth (Andy Serkis) and Lt. James Gordon (Jeffrey Wright)— in the city’s corrupt network of officials and high‐profile figures, the lone vigilante has established himself as the sole embodiment of vengeance among his fellow citizens. When a killer targets Gotham’s elite with a series of sadistic machinations, a trail of cryptic clues sends the World’s Greatest Detective on an investigation into the underworld. As the evidence begins to lead closer to home and the scale of the perpetrator’s plans becomes clear, Batman must forge new relationships, unmask the culprit, and bring justice to the abuse of power and corruption that has long plagued Gotham City. Also starring Zoe Kravitz as Selina, Paul Dano as The Riddler, Colin Farrell and John Turturro. Playing at 7 p.m. Friday, March 4; at 2 and 7 p.m. Saturday, March 5; Sunday, March 6 at 2 p.m.; and at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, March 9 and Thursday, March 10.
