Subject: 🎥 Cinemapolis Recommends - Virtual Cinema Listings for Mar 17, 2021 🎥

Greetings, Cinemapolitans,


Great news! We'll be taking April reservations for PRIVATE MOVIE PARTIES starting THIS FRIDAY. Book yours quickly - they fill up fast!


And some more good news for fans of National Theatre Live - we're partnering with ByExperience to bring you a whole new slate of virtual EVENT cinema offerings that start TODAY with the "Great Art On Screen" presentation of Frida: Viva la Vida. These new offerings are available on a "by appointment" basis - you screen them as if you were attending here at the cinema (no fast-forward, pause, rewind, or multi-watch option) in a “virtual communal experience.”


As always, the full listing of all current and upcoming virtual films, including those titles ending tomorrow, can be found on our Virtual Cinema page.

NEW ON VIRTUAL CINEMA

VIRTUAL CINEMA
FRIDA: VIVA LA VIDA

APPOINTMENT SCREENINGS 3/17 - 3/23


Choose a showtime at

1 pm, 4 pm, 7 pm, or 10 pm daily

Frida: Viva La Vida is a cinematic documentary event film that highlights the two sides of Frida Kahlo’s spirit: a revolutionary pioneering artist of contemporary feminism, and on the other, a human being tormented by agony and love.


With Asia Argento as narrator, the two faces of the artist will be revealed, by pursuing a common thread consisting of Frida’s own words: letters, diaries and private confessions. The documentary film event will alternate interviews with historical documents, captivating reconstructions and Frida Kahlo’s own paintings, kept in some of the most amazing museums in Mexico.


DIRECTOR: Giovanni Troilo

SCREENWRITERS: Jacopo Magri (story by), Jacopo Magri

VIRTUAL CINEMA
WOJNAROWICZ

“A stirring requiem of rage and resistance.”

Wojnarowicz: F**k You F*ggot F**ker is a fiery and urgent documentary portrait of downtown New York City artist, writer, photographer, and activist David Wojnarowicz. As New York City became the epicenter of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s, Wojnarowicz weaponized his work and waged war against the establishment’s indifference to the plague until his death from it in 1992 at the age of 37. Exclusive access to his breathtaking body of work – including paintings, journals, and films – reveals how Wojnarowicz emptied his life into his art and activism.


Rediscovered answering machine tape recordings and intimate recollections from Fran Lebowitz, Gracie Mansion, Peter Hujar, and other friends and family help present a stirring portrait of this fiercely political, unapologetically queer artist.


DIRECTOR: Chris McKim

CONTINUING ON VIRTUAL CINEMA

For the first month of our new Private Movie Party program, party hosts must provide their own Blu-ray or DVD to screen.


Negotiations are underway to add a rotating selection of newly released films as an option in future months.
