The Happy Prince

“For while this may be a film about how Wilde's life -- and genius -- were cruelly curtailed by the stigma of his homosexuality, it's also about lives lived, enduring friendships and the relentless passing of time.” Matthew Bond, The Mail.

Rupert Everett, Colin Firth, and Emily Watson star in the untold story of the last days of Oscar Wilde, a man who observed his own failure with ironic distance and regarded the difficulties that beset his life with detachment and humor.

Kusama - Infinity

Kusama - Infinity explores artist Yayoi Kusama's journey from a conservative upbringing in Japan to her brush with fame in America during the 1960s (where she rivaled Andy Warhol for press attention) and concludes with the international fame she has finally achieved within the art world.

 NR; 85 minutes

Blaze

“It's a tour de force of oversized charm and verve, a living ballad of song-writer-as-ramblin'-man (and almost compulsive screw-up).” Joe Gross, Austin American-Statesman.

Ethan Hawke directs this reimagining of the life and times of Blaze Foley, the unsung songwriting legend of the Texas Outlaw music movement.
