	Web site lists theaters
	for limited run of Luther

	For a list of theaters where the new motion picture Luther is
showing during its limited run, go to the movies Web site,
lutherthemovie.com <http://lutherthemovie.com>	, click on Enter the
official Web site and then on Find a theater.

	I encourage everyone to check the Web site and theater listings
in their local papers as soon as possible, since Luther is only
available at theaters for a limited time, said Rev. Tom Lapacka,
executive director of the LMCS Board for Communication Services.

	The film opened in several hundred theaters on Sept. 26, and
will be leaving those theaters soon, Lapacka said. It will be in
other theaters only for a short time.

	Luther stars Joseph Fiennes ("Shakespeare in Love,"
"Elizabeth," "Enemy at the Gate") as Martin Luther, Alfred Molina
("Frida," "Chocolat"), and two-time Academy Award winner Sir Peter
Ustinov ("Spartacus," "Topkapi").

	The movies director is Eric Till, who also directed
"Bonhoeffer: Agent of Grace."

	"This film offers an entertaining, up-close look at Luther and
his passion for truth," said Dennis Clauss, co-executive producer of the
film and church and community project leader for Thrivent Financial for
Lutherans, which partially funded the film. "The movie captures with
historical integrity the magnitude of Martin Luthers life, Clauss
said, helping viewers understand his significance to the Lutheran faith
and to world history."
