  • Run Terry Run

    Astor Theatre 219 Main Street, Liverpool, Nova Scotia, Canada
    Movies

    RUN TERRY RUN delivers an intimate, entirely archival look at Terry Fox's legendary 1980 Marathon of Hope. Utilizing over 90 restored reels of long-lost 16mm raw footage and pristine, untouched audio tapes, the documentary foregoes modern "talking head" interviews. Instead, it uses real-time dialogue from Terry, his brother Darrell, and friend Doug Alward to reveal the true gritty determination and deeply human side of the 21-year-old Canadian icon as he united a nation.

    After decades of being blown to bits by bombs, demolished by dynamite, mangled by magnets, battered by boulders, trampled by trains, tricked by tunnels, sprung by springs, steamrolled by steamrollers, maligned by misfires, bedeviled by bungees, rattled by rockets, backstabbed by bat suits, rocked by rocket skates, upended by unicycles, quaked by quake pills, rubberized by rogue bands, and hurled headlong off every cliff in the Southwest, Wile E. Coyote (Genius) finally fights back. Teaming up with billboard accident lawyer Kevin Avery (Will Forte), he takes on slick corporate counsel Buddy Crane (John Cena) and ACME, Inc., the profit-obsessed conglomerate behind every one of the Coyote’s chaotic catastrophes.

  • Beyond The First Glance Kristal D’Amato Art Show

    Beyond The First Glance Kristal D’Amato Art Show
    Astor Theatre 219 Main Street, Liverpool, Nova Scotia, Canada
    Art

    The Astor is excited to welcome Kristal D'Amato Art Show - Beyond The First Glance in our Upstairs Gallery for the month of October.  

    The camera often reveals details that disappear when we take in scenes all at once: the textures worn into driftwood by the tide, the glow of light across a shell, the reflections hidden in still water, or the unexpected arrangement of ordinary objects. These small discoveries have become the starting point for much of my work.

    Curiosity leads to every piece I create. Sometimes it ends with a photograph. Sometimes that photograph becomes something entirely new - a mandala that uncovers patterns hidden within nature, or a watercolour interpretation that explores the same scene through softness, colour and emotion. Each transformation asks the same question: What else is hidden here?
