Reel Hub Recommends: The Hurt Locker at Stuart Street Playhouse; The Fugitive at HFA
Ty Burr, not yet killed by Ebert, brings tidings (how else can you refer to a post ending ‘get thee hence’?) that the Stuart Street Playhouse will be showing The hurt Locker from March 12 to 18 and possibly longer if the movie proves popular enough.
This is good news. Even if you’re of the opinion that The hurt Locker is only marginally better than Point Break (as one area movie blogger recently argued), it’s still undeniably worth experiencing in the theater, where the film’s tremendous sound and high intensity make it as immersive as the visually arresting Avatar. In Burr’s words, The hurt Locker is “a diminished experience in the home environment.”
Combine this ersatz-rerelease of The hurt Locker with Saturday’s screeing of John Ford’s The Fugitive at the HFA and you’ll have a great weekend at the movies. [Boston Globe]
