DESCRIPTION:The Yes Men are anti-corporate pranksters who create phony Web sites to get 
 themselves invited to high-level corporate conferences and media events - 
 where they give hilarious, Swiftian analyses that unmask global injustice 
 and satirize human rights abuses. They are the 21st century's answer to 
 Timothy Leary's proselytizing for acid and Ken Kesey's busload of hipsters. 
 The big difference is that they care less about changing minds than 
 changing policy. But announcing, as spokespeople for Dow Chemical, that 
 they will at last take full financial responsibility for the victims of 
 Bhopal, they create a media sensation that embarrasses the real powers that 
 be. And, outfitted in their wacky "survival ball" getups, the Yes Men 
 address a room full of straight-laced suits who don't think there's 
 anything funny about going to insane lengths to assure one's personal 
 safety in the event of any and all calamities. The Yes Men don't exactly 
 speak truth to power. But their hearts are in the right place -- right next 
 to their funny bones. Written, directed and produced by Andy Bichlbaum and 
 Mike Bonnano. Co-directed by Kurt Engfehr. Running time: 87 mins. 
 Showtimes: Nightly at 7:00 & 8:45. Addtional Saturday and Sunday matinees 
 at (3:00) & 5:00\n
