| | Greetings Cinemapolitans!
Two new films arrive on our screens as Summer begins to wind down in Ithaca: - Ithaca-born novelist David Foster Wallace is outwardly the subject of James Ponsoldt's (Spectacular Now) latest film, The End of the Tour, but it's really a story of two Davids—Wallace, the famed author, and Lipsky, the not-so-famed author and Rolling Stone writer sent to interview him. According the A.O. Scott of the NY Times, the pairing of the two results in a remarkably written two-hander that's "a movie — one of the most rigorous and thoughtful I’ve seen — about the ethical and existential traps our fame-crazed culture sets for the talented and the mediocre alike." In other words, you won't have had to read all 1,000+ pages of The Infinite Jest to love this one.
- Also this weekend comes The Look of Silence, Joshua Oppenheimer's follow-up to his award-winning The Act of Killing. Made in tandem with his first doc, this one returns us to Indonesia for another perspective on the brutal and genocidal leaders that ravaged the country in 1965. It follows Adi, an optician whose older brother was among those killed, as he examines the eyes of the still-feared warlords and quietly interviews them about their atrocities and, specifically, their role in his own family's tragedy. The result is what Joshua Rothkopf of Time Out New York calls "a superior work of confrontational boldness." Don't miss this gripping documentary.

| | | And on Sunday, we're very excited to welcome our friends from The Civic Ensemble into the theater for two days of staged play readings. At the 10 Year Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, they present a series of staged readings in response to the storm: "The Storm Trilogy" by Jason Maghanoy on Sunday, August 23, and "When the Sky Falls" by Yvette "Jamuna" Sirker on Tuesday, August 25. |
