America the Beautiful currently at Landmark's Century Centre Cinema!

Get out and enjoy this film!!!

 

We had a standing-room-only crowd for our screening of this film last month - as it makes its theatrical premiere this weekend at the Landmark, we strongly encourage everyone (and we mean everyone) to be there this weekend!
 

 

Film Synopsis: In a society where "celebutantes" like Paris Hilton dominate newsstands and models who weigh less than 90 pounds die from malnutrition, female body image is one of the more dire problems facing today's society.  America the Beautiful illuminates the issue by covering every base. Child models, plastic surgery, celebrity worship, airbrushed advertising, dangerous cosmetics - no rock is left unturned.  Featuring appearances by Jessica Simpson, Anthony Kiedis of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Martin Short, Eve Ensler and Paris Hilton.
