For most of us, September means just one thing: back to school! Even those of us who’ve been out of school for years still sometimes think of early fall as a time of new beginnings. Your little ones might not feel the same way, though, as they head back to the classroom! If they need a little cheering up on a Saturday morning, look no further than your local Cineplex theatre. Every month there are classic family-friendly features playing on Saturday mornings at 11am. Admission is only $2.99 and a portion of the proceeds goes towards Free the Children. Why not treat the family by introducing the next generation to an old favourite, or discover a new family favourite together, on the big screen!

With the fantasy adventure Labyrinth (now out on Blu-ray), the late Jim Henson (who died in 1990) ushered in a new phase in his career. “We’re talking about another Muppet film, which would be fun to do,” Henson said back in 1986 when this interview was conducted. “And we’ll probably do occasional specials—but I doubt if we’ll ever go back into full-time production with those characters.
“Mostly, Frank [Oz, who puppets Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Animal and others] is such a mainstay of that group of characters, and I certainly don’t see him wanting to return to weekly television. He really enjoys working in films, and from all reports, he’s doing a wonderful job [directing] on Little Shop Of Horrors. At the same time, Frank says he always wants to continue doing the Muppets, too, and so we’ll do that as it fits.”

Julia Roberts and Carrie-Anne Moss have signed on to star in the ensemble drama "Fireflies in the Garden" for Senator Entertainment, marking the German company's first U.S. production. Emily Watson and Ryan Reynolds are in negotiations to join the cast.
Written by Dennis Lee, who will make his directorial debut on the project, the story is loosely based on Lee's life and explores the complexities of love and commitment in a family torn apart when faced with an unexpected tragedy.
Shooting is scheduled to begin in March in Austin.
Senator's Marco Weber, Vanessa Coifman and Sukee Chew are producing, while Jere Hausfater and Milton Liu are executive producing.
Weber lauded Lee's screenplay as "a gripping and entertaining story that encompasses the true meaning of family." He added, "This ensemble of actors is a testament to the strength of the material, and we are extremely fortunate to bring all of these people together."
Senator, which produces, finances and distributes film, is in preproduction on "The Informers", based on Bret Easton Ellis' novel.
