As many of you may remember, the sweet motion picture Charly was a wonderful love story that touched the hearts of so many people. We love this movie and feel a special connection to it as one of our restaurants, The Roof Restaurant, had the privilege of being featured in one of the sweet scenes of this movie.  Now, 10 years later, Charly is back! On August 10, 2012, prepare to be swept away for a second time with all new scenes and a whole lot more Charly fun!

Charly, Ten Years Later

In the pantheon of motion picture releases, occasionally comes a movie that just won’t let go of you. These films resonate with their audiences on different levels and in different ways, but resonate they do to the point where they become part of the tapestry of the lives of those who have seen them. Charly is one such film.

Originally released in 2002, it is now poised for an encore celebration. With legions of fans worldwide, Charly was not only wildly popular at the box office during its initial release, it continues to be one of the all time best selling home video releases in its genre. From book to screen to video, Charly has stood the test of time and amassed a faithful fan base that will now have the opportunity to see it again on the big screen.

The filmmakers teamed up to make Charly with the clear intent to create the best film possible. They were relentless in being true to Jack Weyland’s story and to the fans who loved it so much. The result was a film that not only satisfied the original author, it was an immediate hit with the public and they showed their support by going back to see it time and time again.

Ten Years On

Through the ensuing years after Charly’s release, and after many requests from the audience to bring it back to the big screen, the decision was made to rerelease the film on its tenth anniversary. Upon revisiting the movie in anticipation of the encore presentation, it was decided that besides digitally remastering the film, new material would be created that the filmmakers didn’t have the budget, the opportunity or the creative insight (at the time) to achieve.

West Ridge Academy, a non profit organization that helps troubled youth, joined the reissue effort as the above the title sponsor to bring its considerable reputation to bear on getting the word out to the community. For its support, a percentage of the revenue generated through the rerelease of Charly will go back to West Ridge Academy.

The 10th Anniversary Encore release will feature many new “moments” that will surely entertain the audience. The film that audiences will see beginning in August will not just be the original work dusted off and reshown. It will be an updated and enhanced version without loosing a single nuance of the original. Moviegoers are in for a special experience when the lights go down and the curtain goes up on Charly, ten years later.
