Main AttractionsFilm Booking. Our main films play week-to-week from Friday through Thursday. Every Monday we determine what new films will start on Friday, what current films will end on Thursday, and what current films will continue through Friday for another week.

M A I N A T T R A C T I O N S M A I N A T T R A C T I O N S

This Film is Not Yet Rated USA – 1 hr 37 min – Kirby DickTHIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED is an expose about that powerful and shadowy force in Hollywood: the Motion Picture Association of America. You know, the people who rate the movies. Including interviews with iconoclastic directors John Waters, Kevin Smith, and Darren Aronofsky, the film offers a provocative commentary on the fickle ratings system. This film, due to its subject matter, is in fact rated NC-17.

For Your Consideration USA – Christopher Guest Christopher Guest is our most beloved “mockumentarian,” and he returns here with a riotous romp through the world of independent filmmaking. When three actors in a small “art film” get caught up in the buzz of awards season, egos begin to careen out of control. The cast includes all of the usual suspects—Fred Willard, Harry Shearer, Michael McKean, and Parker Posey. If you love movies, this satire is right up your alley.

Babel USA – 2 hr 22 min – Alejandro Gonzalez InarrituIn English and with subtitlesFrom the writer/director team that made the stunning 21 Grams and Amores Perros, BABEL is an intense drama about people’s inability to communicate in the contemporary world. Interweaving three narrative threads, four countries, and multiple languages, Inarritu creates a taut and urgent film. Starring Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett, and Gael Garcia Bernal.

Infamous USA – 1 hr 55 min – Douglas McGrath Another film about Truman Capote? Yes, and this one is just as good as last year’s Capote. Adapted from the best-selling biography by George Plimpton, INFAMOUS also recounts the period of Truman Capote’s career when he researched and wrote In Cold Blood. INFAMOUS has its own unique and stylish spin on the subject and is a fascinating companion piece. The cast includes Toby Jones, Sandra Bullock, Peter Bogdanovich, and Jeff Daniels.

The Science of Sleep France – 1 hr 45 min – Michel Gondry In English & French w/subtitles Michel Gondry, the vibrantly creative filmmaker who directed Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, has returned with this whimsical and playful film. Set in Paris (and spoken in multiple languages), SLEEP is a journey into the peculiar world of an insecure young man who attempts to connect with a female neighbor while trying to separate his bizarre dreams from waking life. Starring Gael Garcia Bernal and Charlotte Gainsbourg.

The U.S. vs. John Lennon USA – 1 hr 38 min – David Leaf and John ScheinfeldTHE U.S. VS. JOHN LENNON examines the life of one of the most influential men of his time, and how his roles as both a musician and an antiwar activist influenced our view of America. Interweaving historical footage and interviews with Yoko Ono, Walter Cronkite, and G. Gordon Liddy, this film touches upon issues of war, peace, and truth, exploring the Vietnam era through the lens of today.

Volver Spain – 2 hr – Pedro AlmodovarWith subtitlesPedro Almodovar continues to explore the feminine mystique of mothers and daughters with this lush tale about a mother’s return to her home town after her death to fix the problems that she couldn’t resolve during life. The enchanting Penelope Cruz lights up the screen in yet another Almodovar triumph. Also with Carmen Maura.

The Queen UK – Stephen FrearsStephen Frears directs this fascinating British drama, which chronicles the political fallout from Princess Diana’s death as seen through the interplay between Queen Elizabeth and Prime Minister Tony Blair. Helen Mirren and Michael Sheen are superb in the leads as their characters strive to handle the tragedy both publicly and privately.

Fast Food Nation USA – 1 hr 54 min – Richard LinklaterEclectic director Richard Linklater (Before Sunrise, Dazed and Confused) always delivers different and interesting films. In FAST FOOD NATION, he has turned a best-selling nonfiction book into a fictional drama set in the fast food industry. The story focuses on an executive for Mickey’s, a fast food chain, who is forced to face the dark side of this mega business. Starring Greg Kinnear, and also with Ethan Hawke, Bruce Willis, and Patricia Arquette.

Renaissance France – 1 hr 43 min – Christian Volckman – In English This futuristic drama is an amazing visual accomplishment. Combining animation and live-action, RENAISSANCE is a step beyond what we’ve seen before. The film’s black-and-white widescreen look is closer to comic book panels than digital filmmaking. Combine Metropolis, Blade Runner, and Sin City, set them in Paris in 2054 and you’ll have a sense of what this mournful film noir is like. A must for the cinematically adventurous.

Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles China/Japan – 1 hr 48 min Zhang YimouWith subtitlesChinese director Zhang Yimou returns to the touching emotionalism of his earlier small-scale dramas. A Japanese father tries to reconcile with his grown son, and that leads him on a long journey with many adventures in China. Gorgeously shot, this film delivers a satisfying emotional punch.

Fur USA – Steven Shainberg Nicole Kidman stars in this beautifully made drama about Diane Arbus, one of the most influential and idiosyncratic photographers of the twentieth century. Seamlessly intertwining fictional and actual events, FUR, subtitled An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus, aspires to reveal artistic truth through the convergence of the real and the imagined. A captivating glimpse into the mind of a unique artist.

The Fallen Idol1948 – 1 hr 34 min – Great Britain – b&w 35 mm – d: Carol Reed – w/ Ralph RichardsonA young boy idolizes a household servant who is suspected of murdering his wife.

Reed and Greene would successfully collaborate again on The Third Man (1949) and Our Man in Havana (1959).

Since emerging from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in the 1980’s, Jim

Jarmusch’s films have shaped the American consciousness. His unique visual style, offbeat sense of humor, and diverse cast of characters have firmly established him at the

forefront of independent film. We are happy to present an in-depth look at this fascinating character, beginning with a lecture at the County Theater, followed by screenings of four Jarmusch films, all hosted by knowledgeable figures in the Philadelphia film community.

County: Nov 20 Mon 7:00

Jim Jarmusch A Film Forum with Jennifer SteinbergJim Jarmusch has alternately delighted and perplexed audiences for two decades with his one-of-a-kind vision of the American cultural landscape.

Stranger Than Paradise1984 – 1 hr 29 min – USA – b&w – 35 mm d: Jim JarmuschJarmusch’s dark comedy is one of the seminal films that launched contemporary independent filmmaking. It’s more or less about two New York hipsters who travel to Cleveland and then down to Florida. Not much happens, but its quirky irony makes American alienation extremely entertaining. Featuring splendid cinematography by Tom DiCillo and the intriguing music of John Lurie. Both screenings will be introduced and discussed by Gretjen Clausing, Program Director for Scribe Video Center.

County: Nov 27 Mon 7:00Bryn Mawr: Nov 29 Wed 7:00

The screening at the County will be introduced and discussed by filmmaker and screenwriter David Greenberg. The screening at Bryn Mawr will be hosted by Timothy Corrigan, Professor of English and Director of Cinema Studies at the University of Pennsylvania.

The screenings of DEAD MAN (except the midnight shows) will be introduced and discussed by our Program Directors.

Broken Flowers2005 – 1 hr 47 min – USA – color – 35 mm d: Jim Jarmusch Bill Murray gives a drolly amusing performance in this comedy about an aging bachelor’s hesitant hunt for a son he may have fathered years before. Jarmusch’s episodic style works perfectly here. The stellar cast includes Jeffrey Wright, Sharon Stone, Jessica Lange, Tilda Swinton, Julie Delpy, and Chloe Sevigny.
