The supporting cast, including Judi Dench, Alfred Molina, and Johnny Depp, give impassioned performances as townsfolk either enchanted or repelled by Vianne's influence on the pious, repressed community. An international smash hit, Chocolat is truly \"a delicious comedy that feels as good as it tastes.\"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/dryden.eastmanhouse.org\/films\/2013\/06\/chocolat\/\">Dryden website<\/a>, 2013-Aug-19]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Tonight at the <strong>Bug Jar<\/strong> is <strong>Hookers<\/strong>, good, amiable hard rock from <!-- 2008-Sep-20: Bug Jar-good, amiable hard rock --><strong>The Clockmen<\/strong>, and <strong>The Bygone Few<\/strong> starting around 8:30 p.m. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/bugjar.com\/2013\/07\/rochester-ny-early-show-please-arrive-on-time-hookers-w-clockmen-the-bygone-few-cultr-club-to-follow-bands-at-11-pm\/\">Bug Jar calendar<\/a>, 2013-Aug-19]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Starting around 9:30 p.m. at <strong>Abilene<\/strong> is \"acclaimed singer-songwriter and ukulele player\" <strong>Cammy Enaharo<\/strong>, good country-based rock from <!-- 2010-Nov-11: Bug Jar-good, relatively interesting rock with a country edge --><strong>Josh Netsky<\/strong>, good acoustic rock from <!-- 2010-May-16: Bug Jar-good but somewhat unremarkable acoustic rock, also 2006-Oct-20, Bug Jar-caught the tail end of her act with her band; pretty good but pretty typical acoustic rock --><strong>Teressa Wilcox<\/strong>, and <strong>Black Bandit And The Stick-Ups<\/strong>. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abilenebarandlounge.com\/Events.html\">Abilene website<\/a>, 2013-Aug-19]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Friday, August 30<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tonight from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at <strong>Writers and Books<\/strong> is the <strong>Last Friday Story Slam<\/strong> hosted by <strong>Carol Roberts<\/strong>.<br \/>\n<blockquote><p>An open mic of true, loose, and spontaneous stories based on one's own life, as heard on NPR.

Ingram fills the screen with movement and memorable imagery, with everything captured in John Seitz's masterful camerawork. The Eastman House print is universally considered the best extant version of this visual feast.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/dryden.eastmanhouse.org\/films\/2013\/08\/scaramouche-2\/\">Dryden website<\/a>, 2013-Aug-19]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Starting around 9 p.m. at the <strong>Bug Jar<\/strong> is <strong>Aircraft<\/strong>, <strong>The Malones<\/strong>, and <strong>Blue Lazerz<\/strong>. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/bugjar.com\/2013\/05\/rochester-ny-aircraft-w-the-malones-blue-lazerz-tba\/\">Bug Jar calendar<\/a>, 2013-Aug-19]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Wednesday, September 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tonight from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at <strong>Boulder Coffee Company<\/strong> on Park Avenue is an <strong>Open Mic for Comedy<\/strong>. <em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/bouldercoffee.info\/calendar\/calendar.php?op=cal&amp;month=9&amp;year=2013&amp;catview=0\">Boulder Coffee calendar<\/a>, 2013-Aug-19]<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Starting at 8 p.m., the <strong>Dryden<\/strong> will screen <strong>L'histoire d'ad\u00c3\u00a8le H.<\/strong> (<em><strong>The Story of Ad\u00c3\u00a8le H.<\/strong><\/em>, Fran\u00c3\u00a7ois Truffaut, France 1975, 96 min., French and English w\/ subtitles, 35mm).<br \/>\n<blockquote><p>Based on the life of Ad\u00c3\u00a8le Hugo, youngest daughter of Victor, Truffaut's return to filmmaking following a brief respite carries a sense of dark complexity. Arriving on the shores of Halifax, Ad\u00c3\u00a8le (Isabelle Adjani) seeks out Lieutenant Pinson, a British officer whom she had briefly known in the past. Convinced that the two are meant to be together, she slowly begins spiraling into self-destruction, spending her time writing, dreaming, and stalking him. Adjani, nominated for an Academy Award\u00ae, is truly heartbreaking in this story of inner turmoil and unrequited love.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>[source: <a href=\"https:\/\/dryden.eastmanhouse.org\/films\/2013\/08\/the-story-of-adele-h\/\">Dryden website<\/a>, 2013-Aug-19]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here's what's going on this week:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2091],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-jayceland-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2293","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2293"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2293\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2334,"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2293\/revisions\/2334"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2293"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2293"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jayceland.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
