The Grand Goes “Haywire”

The Grand Goes “Haywire” 


Ellsworth, Maine - The Grand’s hot, new film program CineGrand continues with acclaimed director Steven (“Traffic”, “Erin Brockovich”) Soderbergh’s action-packed globe-trotting suspense thriller “Haywire” on Friday, May 25th through Sunday May 27th at 7pm, with a Saturday matinee at 2pm.

“Haywire”, Soderbergh’s first all-out action film, tells the story of Mallory Kane (MMA superstar Gina Carano in her screen debut) a highly trained operative who works for a government security contractor in the dirtiest, most dangerous corners of the world. After successfully freeing a Chinese journalist held hostage, she is double crossed and left for dead by someone close to her in her own agency. Suddenly the target of skilled assassins who know her every move, Mallory must find the truth in order to stay alive. With a rogues gallery of international actors including Ewan MacGregor, Antonio Banderas, Michael Douglas, Channing Tatum, Michael Fassbender and Bill Pullman.

So bring a friend. Share the experience of a film that made Roger Ebert rave “ it’s a pleasure to see an A-list director taking the care to make a first-rate genre thriller,” when CineGrand presents “Haywire” screening on Friday, May 25th through Sunday May 27th at 7pm, with a Saturday matinee at 2pm.

Please note- admission for each CineGrand screening is as follows: General Admission-$7, Seniors- $6 and Members are $5.
The Grand is excited to present a new monthly program of the best reviewed (with the hottest buzz) movies. CineGrand screens one title per month (at least!) for three days to give everyone an opportunity to enjoy a movie the way it was meant to be enjoyed – projected on the big screen in a darkened theatre with hot buttered popcorn. Future titles include our annual Summer French Film series beginning with “Love Crime” starring Ludivine Sagnier (“Swimming Pool”, “Love Songs”) and Kristin Scott Thomas (“Tell No One”, “The English Patient”) on Thursday, June 28th through Saturday June 30th.
