Step into a rusted-out, plague-ridden future where hope is scarce, denim is eternal, and only one man can roundhouse kick the world back into shape!
Jean-Claude Van Damme is Gibson Rickenbacker, a lone gunslinger with abs of steel and a heart full of vengeance in Albert Pyun’s Cyborg, the 1989 sci-fi martial arts fever dream that mashes up Mad Max, kung fu, and robot guts. There’s a killer synth score, slow-mo spin kicks, evil pirates, cybernetic secrets, and enough shirtless brooding to power a small generator.
Starring: Daniel Day-Lewis, Gordon Warnecke, Saeed Jaffrey, Roshan Seth, Shirley Anne Field
Join us for our fifth annual Film Feast and enjoy the 40th anniversary of a queer classic paired with a thematically curated multi-course meal!
Set in the Pakistani community of London, MY BEAUTIFUL LAUNDRETTE follows the fortunes of handsome young Omar (Gordon Warnecke), who takes over a run-down laundrette given to him by his rich uncle. Together with his street-punk friend Johnny (Daniel Day-Lewis), they transform it into a popular, neon-lit palace as their emotions bubble alongside the spin cycles.
Against a backdrop of social and racial tension in Thatcher-era London, Omar and Johnny’s budding relationship blossoms into love with tenderness and passion.
Featuring an Academy Award–nominated screenplay by Hanif Kureishi and deft direction by Stephen Frears, MY BEAUTIFUL LAUNDRETTE remains both timeless and groundbreaking.

Leos Carax’s delirious saga of l’amour fou burns with an intoxicating stylistic freedom as it traces the highs and lows of the passionate relationship that develops between a homeless artist (Juliette Binoche) who is losing her sight and a troubled, alcoholic street performer (Denis Lavant) living on Paris’s famed Pont-Neuf bridge. Capturing their romantic abandon with a giddy expressionist energy—especially in a wild dance sequence set against an explosion of fireworks— this whirlwind love story is an exhilarating journey through a relationship that confirmed Carax’s status as one of the leading lights of the post–New Wave French cinema.
