You’ll have to wait for ‘1917’ and ‘Just Mercy’

Updating the week's movie releases: It looks as if two of the films listed on the national schedule will NOT open this week in this part of the Inland Northwest.

Neither "1917" nor "Just Mercy" is showing up on any of the local theaters menus.

"1917" is Sam Mendes' look at World War I, specifically at the mission of two young soldiers to warn some 1,600 of their compatriots that they are heading into a trap.

"Just Mercy" tells the true-life story of civil-rights attorney Bryan Stevenson, founder of the Equal Rights Initiative, and one of his first big cases. It stars Michael B. Jordan, Jamie Foxx and Brie Larson.

Look for both to show up either next week or soon after. At the moment, the schedules are still too full of "Star Wars" fans.
