Friday Flick Picks 1/9/09

It is the best of times, it is the worst of times for movies in RI theaters. We have the best in the arrival of Frost/Nixon, Gran Torino and Ballast. Then we fall to the wasteland of winter film with Bride Wars and The Unborn. *sigh* So starts the winter movie season. There is a wealth of good film lingering in RI theaters this week. You can check out Slumdog Millionaire, Milk, Four Christmases, The Reader, Bolt, Marley & Me, Doubt, The Tale of Despereaux, Valkyrie, Yes Man, The Spirit, Seven Pounds and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Enjoy!
