Hirsch goes beyond statistics to focus on a handful of bullied students at public schools in Texas, Georgia, Oklahoma,... | The Colonial Theatre | 05/18/12-

Dazed and ConfusedPresented by The Colonial Theatre at The Colonial Theatre July 20, 2012 “…The film is about throwaway moments: It orbits around a story that ends in nothing more consequential than some friends heading off for Aerosmith tickets. Dazed And Confused‘s enduring cult-classic status speaks to how simply and perfectly it evokes the last day of school in small-town Texas in 1976, not how it appeases the narrative gods.
…but even for the sober, it’s a contact high, because it offers a world that’s easy and pleasant to... | The Colonial Theatre | 07/20/12 | Phoenixville |

Dogtown and Z-BoysPresented by The Colonial Theatre at The Colonial Theatre June 3, 2012 “A dazzlingly crafted documentary about the ’70s surf punks of lower Los Angeles who singlehandedly turned skateboarding into an extreme sport.
We see endless Super-8 footage of long-blond-haired kids — think Hanson in the urban wasteland — as they ride low on their boards and then advance to empty swimming pools, zipping along the surfaces of the concrete basins and right up into the air. Sure, it’s only skateboarding. But the thrill of Dogtown is that... | The Colonial Theatre | 06/03/12 | Phoenixville |
DragonslayerPresented by The Colonial Theatre at The Colonial Theatre June 17, 2012 Dragonslayer won the top documentary award at the South by Southwest Film Festival last year, where it had its world premiere. “The measured vérité style of Frederick Wiseman meets the visual polish of Terrence Malick in Dragonslayer, a fascinating slice of crude Americana from first-time director Tristan Patterson.
However, it stands alone with an infectious hard rock attitude. Patterson doesn’t have the epic aims of those filmmakers but equals... | The Colonial Theatre | 06/17/12 | Phoenixville |
