Friday’s openings: Football, cave-ins and Christmas

Note : This post originally listed another movie opening at the Magic Lantern. As noted below, the schedule has been changed.

Another week and another collection of big-screen openings is set to grace the area’s screens. Friday’s openings are as follows:

“My All American” : When a smallish-but-disciplined football player gets injured, he faces the biggest fight of his life. From the same writer who gave us “Rudy,” which should come as no surprise.

“The 33” : Based on a true story, which occurred following a 2010 cave-in, three dozen and three Chilean miners find themselves trapped 700 meters underground. An international team of experts works on their rescue — an effort that could teach Congress a thing or two.

“Suffragette” : Carey Mulligan stars as a young English working woman who sacrifices much to win women the right to vote. Leading, of  course, to a terrific David Bowie song .

“Love the Coopers” : Four generations of a family gather for Christmas, and unexpected occurrences lead to the expected. A, uh, happy ending?

And at the Magic Lantern?

“We Come As Friends”: A documentary filmmaker examine life in Sudan before the country’s 2011 partition. Bring your outrage.
