It's still not listing an official, final running time, but Baz Luhrmann's Australia will be done in time for its November 26 theatrical release... and even a little bit earlier, since it seems like the writer-director's sweeping new romantic adventure drama, set in the continent down under on the explosive brink of World War II, will screen at the Aero Theatre in Santa Monica on Saturday, November 22 at 7:30 p.m., followed by a moderated discussion with the filmmaker. The following evening, Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet and Moulin Rouge will also screen, as a double-feature.

The Aero Theatre is located at 1328 Montana Avenue in Santa Monica. Pending availability, tickets for these movies, as well as other special events, are available through Fandango, but for 24-hour recorded information on directions and the Aero's upcoming schedule, phone (323) 466-FILM.
