THEATR Mwldan film society presents The Pace Beyond the Pines(15), on September 8, 6pm.

Ryan Gosling and Bradley Cooper occupy the two halves of an operatically ambitious film that tells the intimate story of smalltown folk played in the soaring major key of epic multi-generational melodrama.

Gosling plays Luke, a stunt-bike rider, while Cooper plays

an ambitiousyoung police officer, Avery. It's a blue-collar drama-thriller of cops and robbers, fathers and sons; a tale of class, fate, biology and destiny. This is an enormously satisfying film: carefully observed and consistently compelling; it feels like an instant American classic.
