Actor, producer, writer Tyler Perry is back this week with his 11th directorial effort, Good Deeds (rated PG13), an uplifting romantic drama.
The comedy dream duo of current GQ cover models Paul Rudd (I Love You Man) and Jennifer Aniston (Horrible Bosses) round out the week’s new releases with Wanderlust (rated R). The pair first worked together in the 1998 film Object of My Affection, and later on Anistion’s former NBC sitcom Friends, when Rudd played Mike Hannigan, series regular Phoebe’s boyfriend and later husband.
The raucous comedy from director David Wain (Role Models) and producer Judd Apatow (Knocked Up) is about a couple who leaves the pressures of the big city and joins a freewheeling community of colorful nudists. Entertainment Weekly recently gave the film an “A-” grade.
For music enthusiasts, KDH Movies 10 is also hosting a one-day-only live presentation of Verdi’s Ernani as part of the sixth season of the Metropolitan Opera’s Peabody and Emmy Award-winning series “The Met: Live in HD.” Showtime for this broadcast concert is 12:55pm this Saturday, February, 25th.
