The vitals:
7:00 ~ Doors
7:30 ~ MONEYBALL

A definitive sports film about an all-American pastime that isn’t even really about the sport itself, Moneyball is about how two men broke baseball using math and courage. Bennett Miller takes what should be a fist-pumping hoorah movie about an underdog baseball team and turns it into a quiet, meditative deconstruction on what it means to be a loser with nothing else left to give, with only stubbornness and perseverance by your side. Brad Pitt gives an all-time great performance as Billy Beane, the General Manager of the Oakland Athletics during the team's biggest slump. With Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), an economics graduate, by his side, they seek to create a World Series-winning team using the theories of a janitor to accomplish their goal.
