OCTOBER
POSTPONED - Sunday, October 4 | October Sky (1999)

A Kon Ichikawa Film

An Imperial Japanese Army regiment surrenders to British forces in Burma at the close of World War II and finds harmony through song.  A private, thought to be dead, disguises himself as a Buddhist monk and stumbles upon spiritual enlightenment.  The film is regarded as an elegant meditation on beauty coexisting with death and remains one of Japanese cinema’s most overwhelming antiwar sentiments, both tender and brutal in its grappling with Japan’s wartime legacy.  B&W.  In Japanese and Burmese with English Subtitles

Sunday, October 11, 2026 | The Man In The White Suit (1951)

Directed by Alexander Mackendrick

Considered by many to be the definitive Ealing/Guiness comedy. Sir Alec Guinness plays Sidney Stratton, an eccentric chemist who one day invents a fiber that never wrinkles, wears out, or gets dirty. But when the mill owners and workers both realize that this miracle fabric will destroy their industry, Sidney suddenly becomes the most hunted man in the nation. Can a young idealist trapped between big business and mad unions find safety in science or will the future of Britain become unraveled by one extraordinary white suit?

 

Friday, October 16 | October Sky (1999)

Sunday, October 18, 2026 | Undercover Brother (2002)

A Malcom Lee film, starring Eddie Griffin, Chris Katan, Denise Richards, Dave Chappelle.

A funny spoof. He’s badder than Bond. He’s cooler than any international man of . . . secrets. He’s Undercover Brother, a globe-trotting, funkadelic dude of intrigue with more cool spy gadgets up his sleeve than you can shake a rocket-launching cigar at!
