Resistance PREMIERE!! Based on the novel by Anita Shreve. Screenplay by Todd K0marnicki. Directed by Todd Komarnicki. The epic tale of an American fighter pilot (Bill Paxton) downed in occupied Belgium at the height of World War II. Hidden by resistance fighters, the pilot falls in love with the wife of the man who will save him (Julia Ormond). When their affair is exposed, an act of betrayal threatens their lives and the entire resistance movement, forcing the pilot to make a powerful choice that could change the course of the war. "Best dramatic work by Bill Paxton since Apollo 13 and A Simple Plan, and Julia Ormond's best since her role in Legends of the Fall. Engrossing. The young Belgian actor portraying a disenchanted child of a Nazi collaborator and a shallow mother almost "steals" the movie, as an emotional soundboard of this edgy drama." Writer/Director
Todd Komarnicki will speak following the screening.
