Our weekly look at new releases starring Lower Hudson Valley celebs.
• “The Secret Life of Words” stars Bedford resident Tim Robbins as a burn victim who has gone temporarily gone blind due to corneal damage. Sarah Polley, playing a factory worker on holiday, volunteers to be his nurse because—well, Susan Sarandon was too busy. (Metacritic score: 62)
• “Once in a Lifetime: The Extraordinary Story of the New York Cosmos,” narrated by Mamaroneck native Matt Dillon, is a documentary about Pele’s soccer team, the Cosmos—or, as their competitors called them, the Lucky Punks. (No Metacritic score)
• “Charlotte’s Web,” the classic children’s book by E.B. White, is being released as a feature film with Dakota Fanning and animal voice-overs from about half of Hollywood. Yet somehow, not a single celeb from Westchester, Rockland, or Putnam was asked to participate. Luckily, we still have the E.B. White connection—he used to summer in Sneden’s Landing—so we’re still happy to include it on our list. (Metacritic score: 68)
