Editor's Note.

A new year with new challenges and prospects awaits us. Welcome back to Klerksdorp, hope you had a great holiday and a peaceful festive season.

For those of you who had to stay behind at work, to ensure that the wheels of the economy keeps turning, I’m sure that you will have your time off, when the rest of us are working later in the year.

I feel I need to brag a bit, hope you don’t mind. I would like to bring it under the attention of our readers and users of our website that we have reached a total of 100 000 hits on our website over this holiday, may I add that it was a very nice Christmas present to all of us. We would like to thank you for your support and assure you that this year is going to be the year that you will see a lot of changes and new ideas being launched on our site.

We have plans for some major community projects this year, so keep an eye on the local media and on our site to ensure that you are informed and up to date on what is happening in Klerksdorp.

Enjoy your week.

Harry Potter II

Die Another Day 

Blue Crush

Lord of the Rings II

Sweet Home Alabama

Bourne Identity (only the 8 o'clock show)

 

Sweet Home Alabama

Sometimes What You're Looking For
Is Right Where You Left It.

In this romantic comedy, America's sweetheart, Reese Witherspoon, stars as New York fashion designer Melanie Carmichael. Melanie suddenly finds herself engaged to the city's most eligible bachelor, but her past holds many secrets, including Jake (Josh Lucas), the redneck husband she married in high school, who refuses to divorce her. Bound and determined to end their contentious relationship once and for all, Melanie sneaks back home to Alabama to confront her past, only to discover that you can take the girl out of the South, but you can never take the South out of the girl.


The Bourne Identity

He was the perfect weapon.
Until he became the target.

One of the most popular and durable of motion picture genres, the espionage thriller gets a fresh and altogether contemporary approach in Universal Pictures' The Bourne Identity. Director Doug Liman, acclaimed for his edgy signature films, Swingers and Go, infuses Robert Ludlum's 1980 espionage yarn with an unconventional sensibility, and presents Academy Award winner Matt Damon as a new breed of spy movie hero.
Filmed entirely overseas, in locations including Prague, Paris and Italy, the story opens as an amnesiac (Damon) is rescued at sea by the crew of an Italian fishing boat. Nearly dead, he carries nothing but the bullets in his back and the Swiss bank account number embedded in his hip. Although completely without identity or background, he possesses an array of extraordinary talents in fighting, linguistics and self-defense that speak of a dangerous past. In the present, he is disoriented and wary as he is propelled into an urgent search to discover who he is and why his life has taken this perilous turn.
