You can read, but you can't move forward until...dum-dum-dum-dum, chssh-chssh-chssh-chssh...the page turner says so! Cower in fear of the hand that rocks the novel. No? Not scared? We didn't think so. But...

Cue the scary, ominous echoing music. Dum-dum-dum-dum. Chssh-chssh-chssh-chssh. Nowhere is safe. No one is protected from...the page turner! You can read, but you can't move forward until...dum-dum-dum-dum, chssh-chssh-chssh-chssh...the page turner says so! Cower in fear of the hand that rocks the novel. No? Not scared? We didn't think so. But that doesn't mean you should pass up the a chance to see a thrilling film called The Page Turner, an "impeccably made psychological melodrama," according to the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth's Web site. The museum, located at 3200 Darnell St. in Fort Worth, is showing the French film (only the French would be afraid of a little paper cut) this weekend. Shows are at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. Friday, 5 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $5.50 to $7.50. Mon Dieu! Visit themodern.org.
