Unseasonably warm weather this week means you might be looking for something to do that's not outside in the heat. Movies are a great option, with that ice-cold theater air conditioning, comfy seats and a refreshing, oversized soda to wash down a bucket of delicious, salty, buttery popcorn.

The Hollywood movie machine has been coming back to post-COVID life, with new releases "A Quiet Place Part II" and "Cruella" raking in around $100 million over Memorial Day weekend. Both feature films are now showing on AMC screens in Billings. If you're looking for other options, you have some great choices.

An urgent portrait of the last living generation of Hitler`s Third Reich in never-before-seen interviews raising vital questions about authority, conformity, national identity, and their own roles in the greatest human crimes in history.
