Three movies open tomorrow on Oahu:
CHILL FACTOR
Rated R
The peace and quiet of a tiny tropical atoll in the South Pacific is shattered when a covert scientific-research operation goes terribly wrong. Eighteen servicemen are killed, leaving alive only the scientist behind the formula that caused the destruction and the now disgraced officer in charge. Stars Cuba Gooding, Jr. Skeet Ulrich and David Paymer.
OUTSIDE PROVIDENCE
Rated R
The film is set "outside Providence," in Pawtucket, R.I., and is based on Peter Farrelly's autobiographical novel.
THE WINSLOW BOY
Rated G
Set in 1910 and based on a true incident, it's the story of recently retired London banker named Arthur Winslow (Nigel Hawthorne) and his affluent, close-knit family, who get a nasty surprise when his 12-year-old son is expelled from the Osbourne Naval College -- accused of stealing a five-shilling postal order. Six months later, the case of "The Winslow Boy" is an Edwardian media event. At great personal sacrifice, the family has rallied around the accused, fought his expulsion and gathered supporters who see the case as a symbol of an injustice at the heart of the British legal system.
