TV ACADEMY SCREENING FOR FEBRUARY

"Pooh's Heffalump Movie"

Saturday, February 5, 2005 - 10:00am
Webster Place Theatres, 1471 W. Webster, Chicago

BRING THE FAMILY AND KIDS!

The Hundred Acre Wood crew is together again in POOH’S HEFFALUMP MOVIE, this time learning the life lesson of being accepting of others’ differences and the value of true friendship. Awakened by a rumbling that could only be made by the much-feared Heffalump, Pooh, Piglet, and Tigger set out to capture the creature once and for all. Disregarded as too young to partake in such a dangerous expedition, Roo opts to search on his own – with far greater success than his friends. In meeting a young, playful Heffalump named Lumpy, Roo quickly learns an important lesson: Heffalumps are nothing like what he’s been told, and he has much more to gain by befriending Lumpy than fearing him. Roo and Lumpy strike up a sweet friendship and work together to dispel the unfounded fears of their respective friends and families.

POOH’S HEFFALUMP MOVIE features four original songs by multi-award winning singer and songwriter Carly Simon with a score composed by Joel McNeely. A favorite with families since 1926, A.A. Milne’s “Winnie the Pooh” stories have continued to delight and entertain for generations. Jim Cummings reprises his roles as both Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, and two-time Oscar®-nominee Brenda Blethyn voices Mama Heffalump. We thank the advertising, publicity and promotions firm John Iltis Associates for making this screening possible.

TV ACADEMY MEMBERS WILL RECEIVE A PASS IN THE MAIL THAT WILL ADMIT YOU AND GUESTS (6 max. please).

AS SEATING IS ON A FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED BASIS, YOUR EARLY ARRIVAL IS SUGGESTED. NO ONE WILL BE ADMITTED ONCE THEATRE CAPACITY IS REACHED.

Enjoy the Show! Todd Lizak, Dan Moore, Film Club Chairs
