Friday’s openings II: In and out of emotion

This just in from the Magic Lantern: Along with "Best of Enemies," Spokane's arthouse movie theater will be picking up a couple of second runs. One will be "Inside Out," the clever animated feature from Disney-Pixar, and "most likely" (manager Jonathan Abramson provided that qualifier) the metaphor-as-life study "Learning to Drive."

The one sure thing at this point about "Learning to Drive," a movie that is based on a 17-page essay written by Katha Pollitt, is that Thursday is its last day at AMC River Park Square. The one thing I can say about "Learning to Drive" is that it is better — or at least better directed — than the mainstream-oriented trailer below would indicate.
