WE ADVISE ARRIVING 30 MINUTES PRIOR TO SHOWTIME.

Greetings Cinemapolitans!

Oscar night is just two weeks away - do you have your tickets for our annual "And the Winner Is..." Gala event? If you need to catch up on all of the nominated films in our current slate, there's still time. We're also adding two new nominees to the mix this Friday:

Documentarian Raoul Peck brings the powerful and timely words of James Baldwin to the screen with I Am Not Your Negro. Nominated for best documentary, the film combines text from Baldwin's unfinished novel Remember This House with archival footage of the author and strikingly relevant images from our nation's continuing struggles with race relations. A.O. Scott of the NY Times calls it a "thrilling introduction to his work, a remedial course in American history, and an advanced seminar in racial politics — a concise, roughly 90-minute movie with the scope and impact of a 10-hour mini-series or a literary doorstop. It is not an easy or a consoling movie, but it is the opposite of bitter or despairing."
Nominated for best foreign language film, Maren Ade's Toni Erdmann is a uniquely German comedy about a father and daughter attempting—and often failing—to reconnect. This one also gets the NY Times Critics' Pick seal of approval, with A.O. Scott calling it "most simply but also most elusively, a sweet and thorny tale of father-daughter bonding with a finely honed edge of generational conflict, propelled by two extraordinarily natural, utterly fearless performances."

On top of six great films, we also have some special screenings thrown in for good measure coming up in the next week:
