PRESSURE
7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 24, 2024
Horace Ové (1976, 35mm, 126 mins)
New print! The UK’s first Black feature-length drama stars Herbert Norville as a young Brit navigating life in Ladbroke Grove, not quite at home with either his Windrush-generation Trinidadian family or an unaccepting English establishment. Pressure “has the punchy quality of a 21st-century graphic novel, eagerly tackling Black Power and social realism, mixing comedy, tragedy, and irony” (Peter Bradshaw).
BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN
Location: 53 Wall Street Auditorium
7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 31, 2024
James Whale (1935, 35mm, 75 mins)
New print! She’s alive! Elsa Lanchester is one of cinema’s most shockingly unforgettable icons as the potential partner (produced from purloined parts) for Boris Karloff’s Monster. Whale’s masterpiece is both chilling and campy, mixing sci-fi, sacrilege, and social satire to create “the finest of all gothic horror movies” (Philip French). See this Universal classic with us this Halloween…if you dare!
THE CONVERSATION, 50th Anniversary Screening
7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 1, 2024
Francis Ford Coppola (1974, 35mm, 113 mins)
New print! Gene Hackman gives one of his greatest performances as Harry Caul, a San Francisco surveillance expert who may have listened in on a murder. This “bleak and devastatingly brilliant film” (Time Out) boasts an ensemble that includes John Cazale, Allen Garfield, Cindy Williams, Frederic Forrest, Harrison Ford, Teri Garr, and Robert Duvall.
MADAME SATÃ
7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 14, 2024
Karim Aïnouz (2002, 35mm, 105 mins)
Based on the true story of a drag queen, folk hero, and small-time gangster who rose to cabaret stardom in 1930s Brazil, this gritty drama “doesn't glorify dos Santos but examines the hot, reckless fever of his life in all its thorny complexity” (Edward Guthmann). “It's a vivid, emotionally charged snapshot that makes no apologies or excuses” (Chris Vognar). In Portuguese with English subtitles.
BLACK NARCISSUS
7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 5, 2024
Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger (1947, 35mm, 101 mins)
New print! Anglican nuns attempt to create a convent school high in the Himalayas, but chilling winds and emerging obsessions threaten to throw their plans—and vows, and sanity—off a cliff. Deborah Kerr, David Farrar, Sabu, and a spellbinding Kathleen Byron star in this “rapturous, near-indescribable work of cinematic art” (Noel Murray). Technicolor at its most emotionally expressive.
BREATHLESS
7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 13, 2024
Jean-Luc Godard (1960, 35mm, 90 mins)
New print! A defining film of the French New Wave, Godard’s debut is “a thoroughgoing assault on the accepted grammar of filmmaking” (Sam Wigley) and is marked by “a cavalier insouciance that feels like liberation” (A.O. Scott). Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg deliver career-defining performances as a thief and his American girlfriend, with a supporting cast that includes Rivette, Melville, and Godard himself. In French with English subtitles.
