Coolidge Corner Theater
We are in the #CoolidgeCornerTheatre main theatre. I guess this movie doesn't quite have the draw to fill this place on Shabbat!

Saw the 1999 film "Magnolia” in a packed Moviehouse 1 at the Coolidge Corner Theatre last night. I saw and loved it when it came out, and I’m not sure if I saw it subsequently - almost certainly not in a cinema. It was thrilling to see it with so many people of such a range of ages, many who weren't even born when it came out - and the audience cheered at the end. Cinema lives!

I saw Hit Man last night at the #CoolidgeCornerTheatre and highly recommend it.

Gary is a teacher who helps the police with audio on undercover stings. Then he starts playing the fake hit man in them and thrives in the roles. Then he meets Madison.

It's a fun rom com with a dark foundation, and very entertaining.

It's coming on #Netflix on Fri but it's a fun watch in a theater with a crowd.

Tonight, I get to see what are probably my two most highly anticipated movies of the year: I Saw the TV Glow and Evil Does Not Exist.

So. Freaking. Excited.

My spouse and I saw Wicked Little Letters this afternoon at #CoolidgeCornerTheatre and - given the gloriously obscene language in the film - I'm bound to say it is fucking wonderful.

Wicked Little Letters

A 1920s English seaside town bears witness to a farcical and occasionally sinister scandal in this riotous mystery comedy. Based on a stranger than fiction true story, Wicked Little Letters follows two neighbours: deeply conservative local Edith Swan (Olivia Colman) and rowdy Irish migrant Rose Gooding (Jessie Buckley). When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, foul-mouthed Rose is charged with the crime.

Saw Wim Wenders’s new film Perfect Days at Coolidge Corner Theatre this afternoon, and it was superb. In typical Wenders fashion, the plot is very slow, gradually connecting you with the characters. Kôji Yakusho as the protagonist is amazing. When the credits rolled, I found myself weeping. What a lovely, gentle, deeply moving film!

The new Bayard Rustin film is showing at Coolidge Corner Theatre and the trailer makes it look excellent:

But ... come on Coolidge:

“He challenged authority, never apologized for who he was, what he believed, or who he desired.”

Part of what he was, of course, was gay. Amazed the Coolidge minced words!

Rustin

The architect of 1963’s momentous March on Washington, Bayard Rustin was one of the greatest activists and organizers the world has ever known.

Very excited that I’m going to see the new film “Blue Jean" at #CoolidgeCornerTheatre tonight!

"In Georgia Oakley’s stunning directorial debut Blue Jean, it’s 1988 England and Margaret Thatcher’s Conservative government is about to pass a law stigmatizing gays and lesbians, forcing Jean (Rosy McEwen, in a powerhouse performance), a gym teacher, to live a double life.”

Blue Jean

In Georgia Oakley’s stunning directorial debut Blue Jean, it’s 1988 England and Margaret Thatcher’s Conservative government is about to pass a law stigmatizing gays and lesbians, forcing Jean (Rosy McEwen, in a powerhouse performance), a gym teacher, to live a double life. As pressure mounts from all sides, the arrival of a new student catalyzes a crisis that will challenge Jean to her core. The BAFTA-nominated film won the Venice Film Festival’s People’s Choice Award, as well as four British Independent Film Awards.
