Upcoming Films in this Series
THE SWORD OF DOOM
(1966, 35mm, 120m, Japanese w/English subtitles) dir Kihachi Okamoto w/Tatsuya Nakadai, Michiyo Aratama, Yûzô Kayama. Ryunosuke (Nakadai) is a brutal assassin samurai. When his past comes to haunt him, the bodies and his own madness pile up. Okamoto’s masterful film is a hallmark of the genre. These screenings are presented in partnership with the Cult Film Collective. FRI/SAT 7:00 9:30 SUN 3:00 5:30 7:45 MON/TUE 7:00
FARGO
(1996, DCP, 98m) w/Frances McDormand, William H. Macy, Steve Buscemi. An outrageous story of a kidnapping gone wrong, an intensely violent look at loneliness and greed, and a hilarious sendup of Minnesota nice. McDormand won an Oscar as Marge Gunderson, the very pregnant Brainerd policewoman whose persistence and wisdom win the day. The brand new book, A Lot Can Happen in the Middle of Nowhere: The Untold Story of the Making of Fargo by author (and Trylon volunteer!) Todd Melby…
DAMNATION
(1988, DCP, 120m, Hungarian w/English subtitles) dir Béla Tarr w/Miklós Székely B., Vali Kerekes. Bela Tarr’s first triumph follows Karrer (Szekely), as he broods and attempts to win over the lounge singer (Kerekes) at the Titanik Bar. Impeccable, bleak, and deliberate, Damnation is pure cinema. FRI/SAT 7:00 9:30 SUN 3:00 5:30 7:45 MON/TUE 7:00
