The Drummond Will at Little Art Theatre

The Little Art Theatre's monthly Member's Appreciation Weekend takes place the first weekend of every month. It's our way of saying "thank you" to our Friends of the Little Art annual members. Bring your current FRIENDS OF THE LITTLE ART membership I.D. card with you this weekend when you come to see the movie and receive a coupon for $1 off all espresso drinks at Dino's Cappuccinos here in Yellow Springs.

This weekend we will be hosting the area premiere of THE DRUMMOND WILL. Sort of a cross between Monty Python / Death at a Funeral (the original Brit Film) and a little bit of "Shaun of The Dead", this great, British, black comedy that Variety called "an Alfresco Farce" and Huffington Post labeled "a joyful romp!" has just completed a very successful Festival run — with 32 "Official Selections" and winning Best Feature or Audience Awards in 7 of those.

Thursday night is your last chance to see acclaimed director Terrence Malick's latest film THE TREE OF LIFE. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son of a Midwestern family through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father.

Look for Beginners (8/12), Buck and many more coming soon the the Little Art!

We hope to see you soon!

A black comedy set in decaying rural England. It follows estranged brothers Marcus and Danny Drummond as they find themselves on a surprisingly dangerous undertaking to unravel the mystery surrounding their father's very unlikely wealth. A deeply affectionate modern retelling of the classic comedies and murder mysteries from the Ealing era of British cinema, THE DRUMMOND WILL imagines what it would be like to be stuck in a world where the strange rules of Ealing cinema apply. A world where life continues quite as normal in the face of escalating body counts, where sleepy English villages invariably harbor any number of dark secrets, and where you only really know who the murderer is when everybody else has been killed.
