Westhampton Beach - As part of its "Finest in World Cinema" series, the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center will screen director Azazel Jacobs' moving and often funny film "Terri" on Tuesday, August 23, Wednesday, August 24 and Thursday, August 25 at 8 p.m.

Andrew Botsford, former associate editor of The Southampton Press and editor of its Arts and Living section, will introduce the summer films each Tuesday night, and lead an informal discussion, with a special guest, following the film, as part of the "Tuesday Night at the Movies with Andrew and Friends" series.

A hit at the Sundance Film Festival, "Terri," is about the relationship between Terri (Jacob Wysocki), an oversized teen misfit and the loquacious but well-meaning vice principal (John C. Reilly) who reaches out to him.

Terri is mercilessly teased by his peers and garners even more unwanted attention from school authorities by coming to school still wearing pajamas. Resigned to his outsider status, Terri is surprised when his tough-talking vice principal, Mr. Fitzgerald, takes an interest in him. Although his efforts are sometimes clumsy and occasionally dubiously professional, he genuinely wants to help him through this tough time. Under Fitzgerald's tutelage, Terri befriends a pair of fellow misfits, Chad (Bridger Zadina), an edgy loner whose rebellion masks his own insecurities, and Heather (Olivia Crocicchia), a sexually precocious girl whose beauty proves to be a trap of its own. The three teenagers, so different on the surface, but all outcasts in the unforgiving high school hierarchy, find an unexpected, imperfect bond that reflects the tenuousness, poignance and pathos of the adolescent experience. "Terri" is in English, Rated R, and 105 minutes.
