The Northman

The Minamata Mural

A rich depiction of art-making and a mature meditation on the limits of art, featuring a wrenching strings-and-shakuhachi score from Toru Takemitsu.

Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors

The great Armenian filmmaker Parajanov had been laboring in obscurity for a decade or more by the time he made his breakout film, a visionary folk romance.

Recurring

Home for the Holidays

On November 19 and 25, join us for Jodie Foster's rollicking yet immensely moving comic drama, one of the most perceptive of all American films about the often unbearable dynamics of family.

Recurring

The Shiranui Sea

On November 26, scholar Aaron Gerow will introduce the film, widely regarded as Tsuchimoto’s supreme masterpiece.

Recurring

The Act of Killing (Director’s Cut)

In this landmark, deeply unsettling film, director Joshua Oppenheimer exposes a contemporary Indonesian society formed from a brutal, harrowing, and still unexamined civil war. November 26 & December 17.

Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead

Lloyd Kaufman will appear in person on November 26 to introduce his underrated underground gem, a perfect blend of trademark Troma madness and Kaufman’s cynical, crude black humor.

Recurring

Ishtar (Director’s Cut)

Wildly underrated at the time of its release, Elaine May’s deceptively screwball comedy is a cross between a Hope and Crosby road movie and a trenchant satire about the Middle East that feels as relevant as it ever was. November 27 & December 4.
