CYRUS
(R) 91min
Jul 30 - Aug 5, 6:00 and 8:30
With a touching and original story that blends humor and heartbreak, incisive writer/director brothers Mark and Jay Duplass (The Puffy Chair) have entered the mainstream. Their insightful and funny look at love and family in contemporary LA stars John C. Reilly (Walk Hard) as a divorcee who finally after seven years alone meets the woman of his dreams (Marisa Tomei, The Wrestler). But when she is oddly reluctant to take the relationship beyond his house, he discovers she has another man in her life, her sneakily meddlesome 21 year-old son (Jonah Hill, Get Him to the Greek) who is mom�s best friend and is definitely not ready to share her with anyone. Before long, the two are locked in a battle of wits for the woman they both love - and it appears only one man can be left standing when it's over.
