Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Hereโ€™s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this yearโ€™s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it โ€œa sure-fired crowd-pleaserโ€ that โ€œjust might be the feel-good hit of the year!โ€ Others say, โ€œPaul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmerโ€ thatโ€™s both โ€œhilarious and deeply moving!โ€ SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
