Another Cruise Ship First: Movie Premieres

Passengers on Princess ships the week of Feb. 11 are in for a treat: The movie premiere of Bonneville, starring Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates and Joan Allen.

The SenArt flick's debut on the line's 16 ships will come two weeks before its official Feb. 29 launch in theaters across the USA. It's the first time a movie has premiered on a cruise ship.

Princess will show the movie in ship theaters and on the giant outdoor LED screens that it has installed on some vessels in recent years, a signature feature at the line. Princess shows films on the screens nightly, a popular program called Movies Under the Stars (see the photo at left to see what the screens are like; it's a shot from the Caribbean Princess).

Bonneville, for those who are wondering, is a dramatic comedy about a woman driving cross country with her longtime friends (in a Pontiac Bonneville convertible) to deliver her husband's ashes for burial. You can see a trailer at bonnevillethemovie.com.
