The Marion Palace Theatre will show the family adventure film “Oz the Great and Powerful” starring Mila Kunis, James Franco and Michelle Williams on May 3 and May 5.
Walt Disney Studio Motion Pictures provided the following movie synopsis.
Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz. At first he thinks he’s hit the jackpot-fame and fortune are his for the taking. That all changes, however, when he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz), and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity-and even a bit of wizardry-Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well.
“Oz the Great and Powerful” is rated PG for sequences of action and scary images, and brief mild language and runs 2 hours, 7 minutes.
The film will play at the Marion Palace Theatre Friday, May 3 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, May 5 at 2:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $4/Adults, $3/Seniors (62 & over), $2/Children (12 and under).
