Based on the novel by Alice Munro, the 2006 film Away from Her is the winner of numerous awards, including two New York Film Critics Circle Awards, best feature and best actress for Julie Christie, who was also nominated for an Oscar. Christie and Gordon Pinsent play Fiona and Grant Anderson, a married couple of 44 years. Fiona, beset by Alzheimer’s, enters a nursing home, which by policy denies her visitors for the first 30 days. When Grant finally is allowed to visit his wife, he finds that she rarely can remember who he is, and has transferred her affections to another patient, Aubrey, a wheelchair-bound mute, played by Michael Murphy. The Aurora Theatre screens the film twice this weekend, Saturday and Sunday at 4pm. At the Saturday screening, producer Daniel Iron will be present to introduce the film and to answer questions from the audience afterward. This a terrific opprtunity for those who missed the film’s brief run in the area this spring, and in a wonderful moviehouse at a bargain price.

Saturday, December 15 at 4pm. Aurora Theatre, 673 Main Street, East Aurora (652-1660, theauroratheatre.com). $4.50.
