The Last Mistress

ROGER EBERT: OPENING FRIDAY AT THE GRAND >>>

Thelastmistress Set in Paris in 1835, The Last Mistress is the story of a notorious libertine (Fu'ad Ait Aattou) who attempts to be a faithful husband to a rich young lady, despite his helpless enslavement to his mistress of 10 years (Asia Argento). He is devoured by the mistress; their mutual obsession is more potent than any love. Directed by Catherine Breillat, famous for her explicit films, now bringing the same passionate power to an elegant period piece.

Ed. Note: Full review will run here Thursday. It opens at The Grand Cinema Friday, Aug. 1 at 6 p.m.

The Grand celebrates United Artists 90th anniversary with a film series opening with Midnight Cowboy, Raging Bull and The Great Escape Friday, too.

Rummage Sale Saturday

MATT DRISCOLL: SELL YOUR STUFF >>>

Like it or not, in this capitalist Mecca we call America, money is almost a necessity. Sure, you can sow your own seeds, raise your own chickens, and drop out of society for the simple life â€" but most people would rather just figure out a way to earn a few bucks to get by. You’re not forced to do so, but, then again, you pretty much are.

Club Impact at Brick City is just like everyone else. Just because they put on Jesus-approved rock shows every weekend with an almost entirely volunteer staff doesn’t mean the club doesn’t need some cash from time to time.

To help raise said cash, Club Impact at Brick City is hosting their first annual “Club Impact Rummage Sale” Saturday, July 26. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the rummage will be selling like hotcakes â€" or at least that’s the hope of the powers that be at Club Impact. According to Derek Smith, Club Impact’s main man, people can rent a table for $15 and sell their own stuff â€" keeping the profits for themselves or donating it to Impact â€" or the club will gladly sell your stuff for you (naturally, keeping the money earned for Impact’s work).
