JAMESTOWN – The Oscar-winning film, Still Alice will show at Reg Lenna Center for The Arts on Saturday, April 11 at 8 p.m. and Wednesday, April 15 at 7 p.m. It will be shown for free courtesy of sponsor Heritage Ministries and its Connections program.

Julianne Moore won the Best Actress statuette for her performance as the lead character at this year’s Academy Awards. In the film, Alice Howland (Moore), happily married with three grown children, is a renowned linguistics professor who starts to forget words. When she receives a diagnosis of Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease, Alice and her family find their bonds thoroughly tested. Her struggle to stay connected to who she once was is frightening, heartbreaking, and inspiring. Still Alice is rated PG-13 and is 101 minutes long.
