NR

"Lanthimos' renegade deviltry turns a period piece into a bawdy, brilliant triumph. Expect Oscar to bow down to Emma Stone, Rachel Weisz and the mighty Olivia Colman as Queen Anne for bringing a #MeToo punch to 18th-century British politics." - Rolling Stone

Oscar Winner: Best Actress, Olivia Colman. "The Favourite is a bawdy, brilliant triumph, directed by Greek auteur Yorgos Lanthimos with all the artistic reach and renegade deviltry he's known for.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"Hedges is as excellent as he was in 'Manchester By the Sea,' but it's fair to say the movie belongs to Roberts. It's a career peak, and a performance that deserves to be seen no matter how crowded your holiday moviegoing schedule." - Associated Press

"Suburban mother Holly Burns (Julia Roberts) cautiously welcomes her 19-year-son Ben (Lucas Hedges) home for the holidays. Why the hesitation? The young man has gone AWOL from rehab. Mom may be mollified by her son’s vow to return to treatment the day after Christmas. But will he keep his promise? And even with 77 days of treatment behind him, can he stay clean until then?

"Alive in a way that few movies are, 'Roma' is a sumptuous piece of filmmaking, a gorgeous look at life on a grand scale told through the prism of one family." - Detroit News

Nominated for 10 Oscars, incl.

No screenings currently scheduled.

STC

"Merits comparison to works of similar relevance and poetic ambitions, like 'Shoplifters' and 'Roma,' masterworks that share its inquiries about familial ties, parental insecurities, and the inescapable pull of the past." - TheWrap

Golden Globe Nominee! Best Animated Feature “Japanese animation master Mamoru Hosoda delivers a story of such intimate, unpretentious simplicity. Mirai — which inventively depicts the way a young boy’s world is turned upside down by the arrival of a baby sister — could not have been made by anyone else.

No screenings currently scheduled.

Winner of 3 Oscars! Best Picture; Best Supporting Actor (Mahershala Ali); Best Original Screenplay. Winner of 3 Golden Globes: Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay. "Green Book is a road movie, a buddy comedy and a prestige studio release all at once.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"This movie has everything: a swept-off-your-feet romantic fantasy, an underdog-makes-good journey, a wrenching substance abuse drama, and an industry cautionary tale combined." - Buzzfeed News

Nominated for 8 Oscars, incl. Best Picture; Actress; Actor; Supporting Actor... Golden Globe Winner: Best Song. “Actor-turned-filmmaker Cooper and his co-star, Lady Gaga, make for inspired collaborators, doing much more than play the star-crossed lead couple.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"Dafoe's elegiac quality hints at why the artist was ahead of his time: because he saw more than anyone else could. It's a towering performance in a movie that casts a magnetic spell." - Minneapolis Star Tribune

“That dude could paint! There are biopics of artists that don’t ask more of an audience than that simple reaction. Not so with Julian Schnabel’s extraordinary At Eternity’s Gate, which features a monumental, career-best performance from Willem Dafoe as Vincent Van Gogh.

No screenings currently scheduled.

"To make a movie so bad it's good you need vision, drive, luck and obsessive vanity. Fortuitously Tommy Wiseau appears to possess all of these qualities, combined with a total lack of acting talent." - The Guardian

Celebrate 20 years of The Room! 

“Tommy Wiseau’s The Room may be the first true successor to the Rocky Horror throne.  Wiseau's Johnny is the noblest of boyfriends and most capable of lovers. But none of that satisfies his fiancée Lisa, a wicked Jezebel whose boredom with Johnny manifests in a brazen affair with his best friend.

"A conversational feast with four acting Dames-Maggie Smith, Judi Dench, Eileen Atkins and Joan Plowright-who are not above profane fun and confessions that make them human. Don't miss the chance to bask in the pleasure of their company. " - Rolling Stone

“Nothing Like a Dame is a real tonic. If you have any love for the art of acting, this filmed conversation among four eminent women veterans of Britain’s film and stage scene will banish the blues.

No screenings currently scheduled.

PG

"Director Christian Petzold has created a Second World War adventure that is not a sentimental costume drama and a contemporary political parable that is not a didactic sermon... a highly entertaining film. 4/4 stars" - Kate Taylor, Globe & Mail

“German auteur Christian Petzold’s latest film, Transit, takes the story of the eponymous Anna Seghers novel written and set in 1942 zone libre Marseille but telling it against the backdrop of the city’s contemporary counterpart. It’s an intellectual gamble that underlines how little has changed for refugees in the last 75 years.
