The second film based on the hit TV series, I Want to Believe follows the pair as they encounter a deviant priest whose psychic abilities aid in the case—and create a schism between man of faith Mulder and the ever-skeptical Scully. But as more victims pile up, the duo must put aside their convictions to get to the shocking truth. Starring David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Amanda Peet, Billy Connolly and Alvin “Xzibit” Joiner.(AC,AL,MV) PG13-1:44.br>
YES MAN
Saying “yes” becomes
infectious—and leads
to hilarious results—
for ultra-negative bank
loan officer Jim Carrey
in this comedy. Three
years after a rough
break-up, Carl Allen
(Carrey) is a recluse
renowned for his perpetual
use of the word
no. But an unexpected
encounter with a selfhelp
guru leaves Carl
as the ultimate “Yes”
man, approving mortgages
for anyone who
asks, helping out the
homeless, satisfying a
sex-starved senior citizen...
and falling in love
again. Zooey Deschanel,
Bradley Cooper, John
Michael Higgins and
Terence Stamp co-star
in this funny flick.
(AC,AL) PG13-1:44.
THE YES MEN FIX THE WORLD
Follow two professional tricksters as they infiltrate big businesses and pull off outrageous pranks in an effort to highlight the human toll of greed and profiteering. This lively film focuses on the efforts of Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno, frontmen for the Yes Men, to champion worthy causes--and battle the excesses of the free-market economy--through highprofile hoaxes. TV14-:25.
YOUTH KNOWS NO PAIN
Between anti-aging treatments, lotions and surgery, Americans spend over $60 billion a year trying to stay young. In this documentary, Mitch McCabe—the daughter of a plastic surgeon—seeks an explanation for this obsession as she hits the road to meet doctors, reconstructive surgery experts, and real folks who have gone to great lengths to hold off the aging process. (AC,AL,N) TVMA/S,L-1:28.

The horror and heroism of September 11, 2001, is seen from the perspective of the hijacked airplane that did not reach its intended target, thanks to a selfless group of passengers. Described by Variety as “taut, visceral and predictably gut-wrenching,” United 93 chronicles the flight as the four hijackers take control and steer a course of terror. While air-traffic controllers and military personnel scramble in the wake of planes slamming into the Twin Towers, the passengers of Flight 93 realize they are part of another suicide mission—and that they are the only hope to stop it. Written and directed by Paul Greengrass. United 93 has been seen on various HBO channels: HBO, HBO SIGNATURE, HBO LATINO and HBO HighDef. All 3000 names (AL,V) R-1:51.
