Hello Maplephiles,

I used to think I was a movie theater snob, and then I realized I married one worse than me. I can't get my wife to watch movies at home. The other day she finally told me that she just hates movies when she does not watch them in a movie theater. I did convince her to watch the two-part Tiger Woods documentary, Tiger, on HBO. As far as sports docs, it was not as good as the Andre The Giant documentary, but very interesting.


Ruth's Ramblings...
So, you may have seen our special newsletter this week announcing our new restaurant partner, Como's Pop-Up. Many people have reacted favorably to this well-known brand opening a Bloomfield Hills location at The Maple.

This morning the Governor announced that movie theatres could start serving food and drink again beginning February 1, 2021. In response to this, The Maple Theater will re-open on February 5th, the same day as Como's Pop-Up is scheduled to open.

We are looking at many films right now for our opening weeks including Minari, an intimate and heart-wrenching portrait of family and assimilation in 1980's America and The Mauritanian, a British-American legal thriller with a cast led by Jodie Foster and Benedict Cumberbatch. Other possibilities are French Exit, a drama/comedy starring Michele Pfeiffer and The World to Come, a romance drama with Vanessa Kirby and Casey Affleck.

For Secret Cinema fans, we are planning a New Hollywood edition for February 18th with host Kevin Maher of www.top10filmlists.com. Kevin is a huge movie fan who has worked with several major studios for over 20 years in their Home Entertainment divisions. This will be the first Secret Cinema that he is hosting and I'm sure it will be a treat. Mark your calendars.
