BERNIE

110 min | PG13
Iconic indie filmmaker Richard Linklater (BEFORE SUNSET, DAZED AND CONFUSED) and screenwriter Skip Hollandsworth deliver a witty and affectionate black comedy about small town Texas in BERNIE. Based on fact, the film tells of a well–liked, warm–hearted mortician (Jack Black) suddenly accused of murder. Shirley MacLaine plays the town’s richest and most hated citizen, while Matthew McConaughey is a spotlight–craving prosecutor who hopes the case will make him a media celebrity. All three stars have been winning raves at international film festivals, from London to Los Angeles to Texas’ own SXSW.
