Our fourth film of the Winter 2019 Reel Movie Mondays season, PUZZLE screens February 25, 2019 at Carnival Cinemas! Directed by Marc Turtletaub, Rated PG USA | 103 minutes | English, Mongrel Media Tickets are on sale now! Purchase your tickets online, stop by the MAG in person, or give us a call at 403.309.8405.

Tickets can be purchased at the door on film night for $10 each starting at 6 pm (cash only; no member rate at the door), pending availability. About the Film: Producer Marc Turtletaub (Loving, Little Miss Sunshine) makes his directorial debut with Puzzle, a gently humanist story of an unassuming housewife who comes to recognize her unspoken hopes and dreams through the unlikely avenue of competitive jigsaw-puzzling. Agnes (Kelly Macdonald; Goodbye Christopher Robin, Anna Karenina) lives a quiet, monotonous life waiting hand-and-foot on her husband, Louie (David Denman, Logan Lucky; Men, Women and Children), and her two adult sons. After an evening of birthday celebrations — she cleans, cooks, and prepares the house for what turns out to be her own party — she notices a gift that strikes her interest: a jigsaw puzzle of a world map. After finishing the puzzle in remarkable time, Agnes soon answers a “partner wanted” advertisement from puzzle champion Robert (Lunchbox star, Irrfan Khan). As Agnes learns more about her gift at assembling the increasingly difficult puzzles Robert challenges her with, she also begins to give voice to her long-dormant desires. “Turtletaub goes deep on character, allowing Macdonald and Khan to reveal details of their lives, and also their dreams and fears, in a manner that’s as natural as the charming piano score.” —Peter Howell, Toronto Star With: Kelly Macdonald, Irrfan Khan, Austin Abrams All film tickets are final sale, no refunds or exchanges. Advance ticket sales available until 4:30pm on film nights: online; phone 403-309-8405; in-person at the Red Deer Museum + Art Gallery.
