The Lighthouse movie poster Varda by Agnes movie poster

THE LIGHTHOUSE
DECEMBER 27 – JANUARY 2
dir. Robert Eggers, Drama / Mystery / Fantasy / Horror, Not Rated, USA, English, 2019, 109 min.

A hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two lighthouse keepers on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s.

From the eye and mind of Robert Eggers who brought us “The Witch” and whose horror films are unique in the genre.

VARDA BY AGNES
DECEMBER 27 – JANUARY 2
dir. Agnes Varda and Didier Rouger, Biography / Documentary, Not Rated, France, French, 2019, 115 min

The final film from the late, beloved Agnès Varda is a characteristically playful, profound, and personal summation of the director’s own brilliant career. At once impish and wise, she acts as our spirit guide on a free-associative tour through her six-decade artistic journey, shedding new light on her films, photography, and recent installation works while offering her one-of-a-kind reflections on everything from filmmaking to feminism to aging. Suffused with the people, places, and things she loved—Jacques Demy, cats, colors, beaches, heart-shaped potatoes—this wonderfully idiosyncratic work of imaginative autobiography is a warmly human, touchingly bittersweet parting gift from one of cinema’s most luminous talents
