    Sedona AZ (August 12, 2015) – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premieres of “After Words” (starring Academy Award-winner Marcia Gay Harden) and “Cop Car” (starring Kevin Bacon) showing Aug. 21-26 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    AFTER WORDS

    Everyone deserves a love story.

    20150812_After-Words-1“After Words” is a romantic adventure. Academy Award-winner Marcia Gay Harden stars as Jane, a bookish introvert, who loses her job as a librarian and spirals downward into depression. The library and all of its books gave her life a meaning. Jane contemplates suicide and decides to see something beautiful before she dies, traveling to tropical, picturesque Costa Rica. Once there she meets a younger man named Juan (Óscar Jaenada), a charming, charismatic tour guide who makes his living off the many single female tourists who come to town. Together, they embark on an adventure into the heart of Costa Rica.

    The awkward pair experience a transformational journey where Juan reads his first book and Jane comes to appreciate what “Pura Vida” (Pure Life) has to offer in a way that may change her plans to “end it all” in paradise.  

    Together, they experience an unexpected journey filled with adventure and romance.

    “After Words” was produced and directed by Juan Feldman and written by Joel Silverman.

    “After Words” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre Aug. 21-26. Showtimes will be 4 p.m. on Friday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Aug. 21, 25 and 26; and 7 p.m. on Sunday and Monday, Aug. 23 and 24.

    COP CAR

    A small town Sheriff (Kevin Bacon) sets out to find the boys who have taken his car on a dangerous joyride in “Cop Car”, directed by Jon Watts.

    Two good-natured but rebellious young boys (James Freedson-Jackson and Hays Wellford) have claimed their independence and — unbeknownst to their families — ran away from home. Equipped with some beef jerky, they stroll through golden fields making their way towards a secluded glade where they find an abandoned cop car. Curious and excited, they explore the car, find the keys and take the car for a joyride.

    Their bad decision unleashes the ire of the car’s owner, a county sheriff (Kevin Bacon), who has left something of great value in the car and is desperate to get it back. A fast-paced game of cat-and-mouse ensues and the boys quickly discover that the fun is over and they are in way over their heads — and the only way out is to go as fast as their cop car can take them.

    “Cop Car” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre Aug. 22-26. Showtimes will be 4 p.m. on Saturday and Monday, Aug. 22 and 24; and 7 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday, Aug. 25 and 26. 

    Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
