What's new and/or interesting at Philly theaters this weekend. The Departed - This film came out quite a while ago, and we talked about it then, but we wanted to mention that it's being re-released this weekend, in a shameless attempt to drum up some more box office action based on its Oscar nomination. So if you didn't catch it before, and you're curious, now's your chance. Trailer Showing at: Ritz Five Blood and Chocolate......
