WAYNESBORO – Three movies are in store for theater-goers Wednesday, Aug. 14, and Saturday, Aug. 17, at Waynesboro Theatre, 75 W. Main St.

Wednesday,10 a.m. “The Lego Movie” (PG 1:40) Emmet (Chris Pratt), an ordinary LEGO figurine who always follows the rules, is mistakenly identified as the Special — an extraordinary being and the key to saving the world. He finds himself drafted into a fellowship of strangers who are on a mission to stop an evil tyrant’s (Will Ferrell) plans to conquer the world. Unfortunately for Emmet, he is hopelessly — and hilariously — unprepared for such a task, but he’ll give it his all nonetheless.

Saturday, 4 p.m. “Breakdown” (R 1:30) On their cross-country drive, a married couple, Jeff (Kurt Russell) and Amy Taylor (Kathleen Quinlan), experience car trouble after an accident. Stranded in the New Mexico desert, the two catch a break when a passing truck driver, Red Barr (J.T. Walsh), offers to drive Amy to a nearby café to call for help. Meanwhile, Jeff is able to fix the car and make his way to the café, only to find his wife missing and Barr claiming ignorance. Jeff then begins a frenzied search for Amy.

Saturday, 7 p.m. “Duel” (PG 1:30) Duel is a 1971 American road action-thriller television film directed by Steven Spielberg. It centers on a traveling salesman driving his car through rural California to meet a client. However, he finds himself chased and terrorized by the mostly unseen driver of a semi-truck.
