ADVANCED SCREENING: Napoleon Dynamite

Free screening of a new comedy by Jared Hess. "Napoleon Dynamite" receieved the Film Discovery Jury Award at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival and was a 2004 Sundance Film Festival favorite.

Napoleon Dynamite is a new kind of hero, complete with a tight red 'fro, sweet moon boots, and skills that can't be topped. Napoleon spends his days trying to impress the chicks with his drawings of magical beasts while making sure to feed Grandma's

pet llama, until his new best friend Pedro decides to run for class president. Launching a campaign to make the student body's wildest dreams come true, the two must rely on Napoleon's secret talent if Pedro is to beat the stuck-up Summer Wheatley.

"The film, a straight-outta Idaho surprise, is a surreally funny

teen-nerd comedy poised somewhere between Todd Solondz's Welcome to the Dollhouse and a really good Saturday Night Live sketch." - Ty Burr, Boston Globe
