AT THE MOVIES Movie listings: Aug. 28-Sept. 3 Comment DailyTidings.com Writer Posted Aug. 27, 2015 at 12:01 AM Posted Aug. 27, 2015 at 12:01 AM » Social News Varsity Theatre Aug. 28-Sept. 1 See www.catheatres.com for additional showtimes Best of Enemies NEW Daily showtimes:   12:30, 2:40, 4:55, 7:15, 9:30 In the summer of 1968, television news changed forever. Dead last in the ratings, ABC hired two towering public intellectuals to debate each other during the Democratic and Republican national conventions. William F. Buckley Jr. was a leading light of the new conservative movement. A Democrat and cousin to Jackie Onassis, Gore Vidal was a leftist novelist and polemicist. Armed with deep-seated distrust and enmity, Vidal and Buckley believed each other’s political ideologies were dangerous for America. Like rounds in a heavyweight battle, they pummeled out policy and personal insult—their explosive exchanges devolving into vitriolic name-calling. Live and unscripted, they kept viewers riveted. Ratings for ABC News skyrocketed. And a new era in public discourse was born. Directed by Robert Gordon, Morgan Neville; Starring John Lithgow, Kelsey Grammer, Gore Vidal, William F. Buckley, Dick Cavett. Rated R for some sexual content/nudity and language/87m. Diary of a Teenage Girl NEW Daily showtimes: 1:40, 4:10, 6:40, 9:10 Like most teenage girls, Minnie Goetze is longing for love, acceptance and a sense of purpose in the world. Minnie begins a complex love affair with her mother's boyfriend, "the handsomest man in the world," Monroe Rutherford. What follows is a sharp, funny and provocative account of one girl's sexual and artistic awakening, without judgment. Directed by Marielle Heller; Starring Bel Powley, Alexander Skarsgard, Christopher Meloni, Kristen Wiig. Rated R for strong sexual content including dialogue, graphic nudity, drug use, language and drinking-all involving teens/102m. Phoenix Daily showtimes: 1:50, 4:20, 6:50, 9:20 Nelly, a German-Jewish nightclub singer, has survived a concentration camp, but with her face disfigured by a bullet wound. After undergoing reconstructive surgery, Nelly emerges with a new face, one similar but different enough that her former husband doesn't recognize her. Rather than reveal herself, Nelly walks into a dangerous game of duplicity and disguise as she tries to figure out if the man she loves may have been the one who betrayed her to the Nazis. Directed by Christian Petzold.

As the days go on, a tenuous yet intense relationship seems to develop between journalist and subject.
