Ever Dance to ABBA in the Pale Moonlight?

     This week we take great pride in presenting three films about people who dream of starting their own businesses.

     In the summer of 1963, Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar develop a relationship. Jack, a wannabe rodeo cowboy, dreams of fixing up his parent's ranch and turning it into a success with Ennis. Ennis, a ranch hand haunted by a memory from his childhood, is desperate to not break the facade of domestic normalcy he has built with his wife, Alma, and their two daughters. Ang Lee's masterful examinations of the yearning to belong, societal expectations of normalcy, and the consequences of denying one's true self- Brokeback Mountain.
     On the first day of summer in Rome, Alba, a Spanish engineer, picks up Natasha, a Russian bride-to-be, and takes her back to her hotel on both their last night in The Eternal City. Over the next few hours, the women tease and draw each other into the open between rounds of passion. Julio Medem's beautifully shot arthouse romantic comedy about how impactful a single night can be- Room in Rome.
     After a youth with a drug-induced smile plastered on, an aspiring comedic performer gets their chance to fulfill their dream and join the cast of UCB Live. Being unable to afford the required training fee, they join with a new friend to start their own underground comedy troupe. A DIY coming of age story, one of the best superhero films ever made, a joyfully screaming satire covering an emotional story of self-acceptance- The People's Joker.
     All that and Dave keeps forgetting things, Tyler stays consistent, and Kevin makes a desperate move for his own sanity. Join us, won't you?

Emerald Emotions

     This week green men of various sizes and the ladies who love them.

     When Bruce Banner is accidentally exposed to massive amounts of gamma radiation and exploding medical nanobots, it awakens a secret buried deep inside of him by his mad scientist father, David. Now whenever Bruce gets angry he becomes a green rage monster. Meanwhile, two estranged fathers try to use this as a way to reconnect with their children. Chaos ensues. Ang Lee's ambitious comic book adaption- Hulk.
     It's been 50 years since an accident involving lime soda and Seabrook's mysterious energy source created a zombie outbreak. In the decades that followed, the town has become stringently uniform, everyone dresses the same, the only ice cream flavor is vanilla, and cheerleading is the local obsession (because the football team has been dire since the outbreak). Now, thanks to the invention of the Z-band, zombies to live fairly normal lives in their quarantined section of the town. But change is coming, the first class of zombies are being integrated into the local high school and the cheer squad isn't happy with this development. Disney's West Undead Story- Zombies.
     All that and Kevin sees things no one should ever witness, Tyler tries to become a TV exec, and Dave slept the week away. Join us, won't we?
