Cradled by the woods and water of Green Lake, Michigan, SUNFISH (& OTHER STORIES ON GREEN LAKE) unfolds over the course of a summer where the intertwined stories of locals and visitors linger at the edge of personal transformation.

Sierra Falconer’s assured directorial debut casts a steady, sun-dappled gaze on the interconnected summers of a fourteen year-old girl at her grandparents’ lake house, a young virtuoso at music camp, a listless bartender, and two sisters running a bed and breakfast; fleeting moments imbued with humanity and introspection. Like the birds and the trees quietly observing life around the lake, Falconer’s sensitivity as a director allows the characters to be studied in all their restlessness and yearning for connection.

Starring: Raul Julia, Anjelica Huston, Christopher Lloyd, Christina Ricci

When long-lost Uncle Fester (Christopher Lloyd) reappears after twenty-five years in the Bermuda Triangle, Gomez (Raul Julia) and Morticia (Anjelica Huston) plan a celebration to wake the dead.

Could this Fester be a fake, part of an evil scheme to raid the Addams fortune? Querida Mia.

THE ADDAMS FAMILY was co-written by Caroline Thompson (screenwriter of EDWARD SCISSORHANDS, CORPSE BRIDE and director of BLACK BEAUTY) and co-edited by the great Dede Allen whose “split-second sharp” editing helped define the film’s distinctive style and snappy pacing.

Warning: Images are not from the movies we’re showing. Trust us, you can’t imagine what we’re showing!

Politics served with a side of whupass, Hong Kong’s greatest living action director delivers a period wu xia movie that leans hard on style. An attempt to show Wong Kar-wai that you could make a movie utilizing slo mo, step printing, fast forward, and all his favorite stylistic tricks while still delivering blood-boiling, limb-shearing, neck-severing action, this tale of political loyalties being stressed and tested by razor sharp steel feels like an old school Shaw Brothers flick getting an injection of bone-cracking, modern day action. Rarely seen, and never screened, we managed to unearth an unsubtitled print and will be doing live subtitles so you won’t get a chance to see this one in all its gory glory again.

Starring: Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal
