An experienced assassin finds himself battling other professional killers while trying to retrieve a briefcase aboard a speeding bullet train.

This screening is to commemorate the release of Jim Ruland’s new book, Corporate Rock Sucks: The Rise and Fall of SST Records, which will be available for purchase after the movie.

A fly on the wall look at Southern California’s exploding hardcore punk scene in the early 1980’s. More like a xerox fanzine than a glossy MTV document, The Slog Movie is one of director David Markey’s early films, and is a baby brother to his film ten years later 1991 The Year Punk Broke. Like that film, The Slog Movie puts the viewer right there, in the middle of the madness, leaving them to draw their own conclusions, totally atypical of 99% of most rock docs.

Featuring Circle Jerks, Black Flag, Fear, Red Cross (before they became Redd Kross), TSOL, Sin 34 (Markey’s band), The Cheifs, Circle One, & Symbol 6.

Starring: Tamaki Miyazaki, Shinji Takeda, Kenji Sawada, Keiko Matsuzaka, Naomi Nishida

Anaïs in Love, a buoyant French comedy, follows spirited and romantic thirtysomething Anaïs in her manic search for stability. Behind on her rent, contemplating breaking up with her boyfriend, and struggling to complete her thesis, she searches for inspiration while hurtling through lovers with abandon. When an affair with an older book publisher leads to her falling for his live-in partner, a brilliant and luminescent novelist, things get especially messy. This effervescent, cliche-shattering feature debut weaves a tale of self-discovery as literate and delightful as it is unexpected, keeping both Anaïs and viewers off-balance until the very last moment.

Starring: Judy Davis, Jan Adele, Claudia Karvan, Colin Friels, John Clayton, Frankie J. Holden

When Lilli, a back-up singer for an Elvis impersonator, finds herself stranded on the coast of New South Wales, she is enchanted by a young woman who seems equally drawn to her. Soon she realizes it is her very own daughter who she left behind with her mother-in-law after her husband died over a decade before. Curious about the girl but addicted to her untethered lifestyle, Lilli lingers and spies, not knowing if she has much to give. Directed by Gillian Armstrong and starring the inimitable Judy Davis who collaborated years earlier with My Brilliant Career, High Tide is hard to categorize, with a kind of ache and nuance of a female character still rarely portrayed.

Starring: Warren Beatty, Madonna, Charlie Korsmo, Glenne Headly, Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman
