The Hero

14A

Beatriz at Dinner

14A

"Hayek turns Beatriz into her own breed of wonder woman, Lithgow’s Strutt is definitely a super villain of sorts and their head-to-head battle is clearly worth seeing even if, in real life, it has only begun." - RogerEbert.com

"Beatriz (Salma Hayek) is a deeply spiritual massage therapist and healer, and about the last person you’d expect to meet at a swanky dinner party held in a luxurious hilltop home. So she’s a bit taken aback when her client Cathy (Connie Britton) invites her to just such an affair.

"Anglophiles and history-loving filmgoers will adore 'Churchill,' an extremely well made film that is the best example of British heroic portraiture since 'The King's Speech.'" - Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune

Alone in Berlin

"The two lead actors give their finest. And Daniel Brühl makes it three, slipping in a telling cameo as a conflicted police investigator, keen to show mercy but coerced by his 'betters' to show none." - Financial Times

“Alone in Berlin’s story comes from a novel inspired by true-life events. Otto (Brendan Gleeson) and Anna (Emma Thompson) were among the majority of the German populace that never officially joined the Nazi party but toed the line, offering no resistance.

The Beguiled

14A

"A masterful study in mood and longing. A film to drink in and ponder, "The Beguiled" is artistically alive while delivering in raw, often hair-raising desperation." - Film Forum

As the Civil War rages, a terribly wounded Union soldier is rescued by the students at an all-girls boarding school deep in the South. As the soldier heals from his wounds his very presence ignites sexual tensions and rivalries among the young women, slowly and inexorably leading to violence.

The Dead Zone

14A

"Before Christopher Walken was a punchline, he was an actor...you get a great sense of how startling Walken can be as a star, of how unusual and unexpected his every choice is, from his turn in this early-career King adaptation, brilliantly directed by David Cronenberg." (Brooklyn Magazine)

“Joining the list of shock-oriented directors who have filmed novelist Stephen King’s horror and suspense yarns, David Cronenberg turned The Dead Zone into an accomplished psychological thriller in 1983.

Stalker

"A vast prose-poem on celluloid whose forms and ideas were to be borrowed by moviemakers like Lynch and Spielberg." - The Guardian

Part of the 5 by Andrei Tarkovsky series

tickets & information

Cézanne et Moi

14A

"If you love art, history, France, meticulous camera work and fine acting, Cezanne et Moi is for you." Inspired by the lifelong friendship between painter Paul Cézanne and novelist Emile Zola

“Cézanne et Moi is the story of the lifelong friendship between Paul Cézanne and Émile Zola; and nothing about it was easy. Zola enjoyed fairly early success as a novelist, but not until he’d spent long years almost freezing and starving to death.

Lady Sings the Blues

FREE screening presented by the Uptown Waterloo Jazz Festival

“Based on Billie Holiday's autobiography, Lady Sings the Blues begins in the early 1930s in Baltimore, where the teenaged Billie (Diana Ross) is raped and then sent to New York to stay with a friend of her mother's. In Harlem she works first as a maid, and later in a brothel. With the encouragement of the brothel's piano man (Richard Pryor), she begins singing professionally and eventually becomes the lover of gambler Louis McKay (Billy Dee Williams)--actually Holiday's third husband but the sole romantic interest in the film.
