CHERI: Michelle Pfeiffer is lovely and subtle as a 50ish courtesan who makes the mistake of falling sincerely in love with a friend’s son (Rupert Friend), who is 24 years younger.  Based on two novels by Colette, who tells us their tragedy is that they were destined to be the only perfect love in each other’s lives, yet were not born on the same day.  A story of nuance and insinuation, concealed feelings and hidden fears. (R) Three and a half stars – Roger Ebert

HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE: This sixth chapter is a darker, more ominous Harry Potter film, with a conclusion that suggests more alarmingly the deep dangers Harry and his friends have gotten themselves into.  There was always a disconnect between Harry’s enchanting school days at Hogwart’s and the looming threat of Voldemort.  Presumably it would take more than skills at Quidditch to defeat the dreaded Dark Lord. (PG). Three stars — RE
