A film in three parts, Barry Jenkins Moonlight follows a young man into adulthood as he struggles with his identity and sexuality. It’s a thoughtful, engrossing, and visually hypnotic film. To date, Moonlight marks the only Best Picture Oscar for A24.
Thursday (6/16) - 7:30
Headlining the week is A24’s newest release. Written and Directed by Alex Garland (Ex Machina, 28 Days Later), Men tells the story of a woman who travels to the country to heal, only to find herself in an escalating nightmare, menaced by past and present.
Friday (6/10) - 7:00
Sat-Thu (6/11-16) - 5:15
The Lighthouse tells the tale of two lighthouse keepers struggling to maintain their sanity. Unsettling, blackly comic, and shot in full frame black-and-white, The Lighthouse is a singular film from Robert Eggers.
Wednesday (6/15) - 7:30
Before they made Everything Everywhere All at Once, Daniels created the deeply strange Swiss Army Man, which tells the story of a stranded man who befriends a very useful corpse. Despite its bleak set-up, it’s a uniquely heartfelt and optimistic film.
Tuesday (6/14) - 7:30
For a lot of people, Ari Aster’s Hereditary put A24 on the map, and there’s good reason for that. It’s a menacing slow burn that escalates into visceral horror, with great performances all around.
Monday (6/13) - 7:30
Uncut Gems introduced the Safdies to a much wider audience, and re-introduced us to Adam Sandler, who can turn in one hell of a performance when he wants to. If you’ve got the movie-going stamina, we’re running Uncut Gems right after Good Time, so you can make it a tension fueled double-feature.
Saturday (6/11) - 9:30
The first solo outing from writer/director Greta Gerwig, Lady Bird tells a seemingly familiar coming-of-age story, but does so with an insight and empathy that lifts it far above it’s like.
Sunday (6/12) - 3:15
Green Room is a relentless horror thriller from Jeremy Saulnier. It features Patrick Stewert in a terrifying turn, and a typically great performance from the late Anton Yelchin.
Sunday (6/12) - 7:30
The Safdie brothers meticulously craft chaos into something mesmerizing. Good Time is a whirlwind tour of New Yorks underbelly, anchored by a great performance from Robert Pattinson.
Saturday (6/11) - 7:30
On Friday, we’ll follow up Men with Alex Garlands first outing as writer/director. Ex Machina is an unnerving exploration of artificial life and the limits of humanity.
