This weekend at Theatre N:

Certified Copy, starring Juliet Binoche as a Tuscan gallery owner who strikes up a brief romance with a British author.  In French, with subtitles.  Binoche won the Best Actress prize at Cannes for her role in this film, which should also please those who like films set in Italy. 
Showing Friday at 2pm, Saturday at 2pm & 8pm, and Sunday at 6:30pm.

3 Backyards, starring Edie Falco.  Three dark tales from a Long Island suburb, premiered at Sundance. 
Showing Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 5pm, and Sunday at noon.

Shakespeare's As You Like It, filmed live at the Globe Theatre in London.  148 minutes with 1 intermission.  1 showing, Sunday at 2:30, $15, or $12 for students.  The opera and play broadcasts are really the only showings at Theatre N that are not cheap.

Tickets for Theatre N range from $5 to $7, usually.  If you can't find street parking (free after 6pm in Wilmington), park in the Community parking garage across 11th street for $1 validated parking.  Ask them about their frequent viewer stamp incentive.  Cheap snacks, drinks, and even beers and wines (yes, beers and wines in a movie theater - not seen in Delaware since the old Chestnut Hill theater in Newark closed) are available in the theater.

Area restaurants within walking distance of Theatre N include Cafe Mezzanotte, Deep Blue, Mikimotos (if you see a Friday 2pm showing, you can hit their sushi happy hour on the way out), Washington Street Ale House, Domaine Hudson, Vinoteca 902, The Green Room, Public House, and Chelsea Tavern.
