Film Schedule
YOUTH WITHOUT YOUTH
In Francis Ford Coppola’s love story wrapped in a mystery, a timid professor is changed by a cataclysmic event and explores the mysteries of life.
JIMMY CARTER MAN FROM PLAINS
Academy Award winning director, Jonathan Demme, chronicles the former president’s recent tour for his book Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.
STARTING OUT IN THE EVENING (ROADHOUSE ATTRACTIONS)
“This is what great screen acting is about. It’s not a flamboyant performance. Langella is never more expressive than when he’s immobile, unsmiling, staring out from a body that has become too lumbering a vessel for his churning brain.” (David Edelstein, New York Magazine.) Frank Langella gives a tour-de-force performance as an aging writer who allows an ambitious graduate student to convince him that her thesis can resurrect his career.
STEEP
Stunning photography makes for real thrills in this exciting documentary, which traces the legacy of extreme skiing from its early pioneers to the daredevils of today.
PERSEPOLIS
“You’d have to be blind not to see the excellence of Persepolis, an affecting, amusing, visually arresting adaptation of Marjane Satrapi’s graphic-novel memoir.” (Nathan Lee, The Village Voice.) Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2006 Cannes Film festival, this film employs stunning black-and-white animation to tell a poignant coming-of-age story about a precocious and outspoken young Iranian girl.
