[QUOTE="boblovesmusic:1259711"]New update! Great stuff this weekend! [B]From the Back of the Room[/B] Opens Friday, December 9 plus Friday at Midnite [YOUTUBE=R0o3Tsh0qyI] 1hr 45mins // directed by:Amy Oden Midnite show (12/9) featuring a live performance by Troubled Sleep (NYC)(ex-Zombie Dogs) and with director Amy Oden in person to discuss the film. Co-presented by Ladyfest Boston. Although it is often credited with spurring the "third wave" of feminism, Riot Grrrl seemed to many to be a blip in the media. Riot Grrrl paved the way for the more mainstream "girl power" phenomenon, but was ultimately forgotten until recently. Books and films have now been released on the subject, but in the scramble for commemoration, many women who were predecessors or contemporaries of Riot Grrrl have been ignored. This film tackles the past thirty years of female involvement in Do It Yourself music, and aims to give a more complete picture of how women have participated in the D.I.Y. community, and how it affects their daily lives. Interviews with... Kathleen Hanna from Bikini Kill, Le Tigre Slade from Tribe 8 Chris Boarts-Larson of Slug and Lettuce Cynthia Connolly, Author of Banned in D.C. Cristy Road, Graphic Artist Allison Wolfe from Bratmobile, Partyline Anna from Blatz Kirsten from Naked Aggression Jen from Submission Hold Witch Hunt Condenada Bruise Violet ...and many, many more! (this looks really good) [B]Melancholia[/B] Now Playing [YOUTUBE=wzD0U841LRM] 2hr 16mins // directed by:Lars von Trier // featuring:Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, John Hurt Melancholia is a psychological disaster film from director Lars von Trier (Breaking the Waves, Antichrist). In this beautiful movie about the end of the world, Justine (Kirsten Dunst) and Michael (Alexander Skarsgård) are celebrating their marriage at a sumptuous party in the home of her sister Claire (Charlotte Gainsbourg), and brother-in-law John (Kiefer Sutherland). Despite Claire’s best efforts, the wedding is a fiasco, with family tensions mounting and relationships fraying. Meanwhile, a planet called Melancholia is heading directly towards Earth. [B]The Wolf Man[/B] Fri & Sat, Dec 9 & 10, Midnite [YOUTUBE=w-IuwvjW39Y] 1hr 10mins // directed by:George Waggner // featuring:Claude Rains, Warren William and Lon Chaney Jr. A practical man returns to his homeland, is attacked by a creature of folklore, and infected with a horrific disease his disciplined mind tells him can not possibly exist. [B]The Room[/B] Saturday, December 10, Midnite [IMG]http://www.coolidge.org/sites/default/files/images/banners/theroom_banner.jpg?1290629874[/IMG] 1hr 30mins // directed by:Tommy Wiseau // featuring:Tommy Wiseau Midnite crowds have flocked to attend this show due to its "so amazingly bad it's 'effing great" charms. In recent years, some of Hollywood's most talented have counted themselves being in the cult of The Room. Paul Rudd, David Cross and Jonah Hill catch the film whenever they can. The Room's director, producer and leading man is the mysterious Tommy Wiseau. In the film, Tommy portrays "Johnny", a man who becomes involved in a love triangle when the woman he loves begins sleeping with another man. Johnny is also the mentor of a drug dealing man child, a dog aficionado and possesses an alarmingly unnerving giggle. Kept as an L.A. secret for half of a decade, The Room has now found its way to the east coast and we here at the Coolidge are proud to present it in all its baffling glory. (yeah I already posted it, but I'll post it again!) [B]12 Monkeys[/B] Monday, December 12, 7PM [YOUTUBE=KxLqZAH-JWM] 2hr 09mins // directed by:Terry Gilliam // featuring:Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, Madeleine Stowe In a future world devastated by disease, convicted criminal James Cole (Bruce Willis) is given the chance to erase his record by traveling back to the past to investigate the origins of a virus that wiped out nearly all of the earth’s population decades earlier. But when Cole is mistakenly sent to the wrong year, he is arrested and hospitalized in a mental institution, where he meets a psychiatrist (Madeline Stowe) who is initially convinced he’s insane and a patient (Brad Pitt) with links to a radical group that may have unleashed the deadly virus. Part psychological thriller, part apocalyptic drama, Terry Gilliam’s riveting drama combines intricate storytelling, visual ingenuity, and stellar performances. Virus outbreaks have long been portrayed in cinema, from The Andromeda Strain to Outbreak to Contagion. Is it pure fantasy to imagine an epidemic wiping out humanity? Or is it something we need to prepare for? Popular science writer Carl Zimmer will attempt to answer by looking at the history of real virus outbreaks and at cutting-edge research on previously unknown viruses that could potentially attack our species in the future. About the Speaker The New York Times Book Review calls Carl Zimmer "as fine a science essayist as we have." In his books, essays, articles, and blog posts, Zimmer reports from the frontiers of biology, where scientists are expanding our understanding of life. He is the author of 11 books about science, including A Planet of Viruses, Parasite Rex, and Evolution: The Triumph of an Idea. He writes regularly for The New York Times, National Geographic, Scientific American, and Discover, where he is also a contributing editor. Zimmer received the National Academies Communication Award and has won the American Association for the Advancement of Science Journalism Award twice. He is a lecturer at Yale University, where he teaches science writing. To his knowledge, he is the only writer after whom a species of tapeworm has been named. [B]Battleship Potemkin[/B] Monday, December 19, 7PM [IMG]http://www.coolidge.org/sites/default/files/images/banners/banner_22.jpg?1312566925[/IMG] 1hr 15mins // directed by:Sergei M. Eisenstein Sergei Eisenstein, having already made a splash in the Soviet Union for his first film, Strike, was quickly requisitioned by the Russian revolutionary leadership to make a new film that was to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the famous Potemkin uprising. V.I. Lenin had hailed this revolt as the first proof that Russian troops could be counted on to join the proletariat in overthrowing the old czarist regime - and thus a high water mark in the October Revolution. The crew Potemkin, coming home from a war with Japan, become mutinous due to the poor quality of rations. The ship's officers - hoping to avoid a full mutiny - order the rebellious crew shot. One crew, Vakulinchuk, cries out, "Brothers! Who are you shooting at?'' The firing squad lowers its guns, but when an officer unwisely tries to enforce his command, a full-blown mutiny explodes. Onshore, news of the uprising reaches citizens who have long suffered under czarist repression. They send food and water out to the battleship in a flotilla of skiffs. The ruling regime catches wind of this and orders its army to suppress the citizens. In one of the most famous sequences ever put on film, czarist troops march down a long flight of steps, firing on the citizens who flee before them in a terrified - and terrifying - tide. Countless innocents are killed. The massacre is ultimately encapsulated in the image of a woman shot dead trying to protect her baby in a carriage - which then bounces down the steps, out of control. News of the uprising reaches the Potemkin, which speeds toward Odessa to put an end to the massacre. Battleship Potemkin has become one of the touchstones in film history and one of the landmarks of silent cinema. The Coolidge has once again joined forces with the composers and musicians of the Berklee College of Music's Department of Film Scoring to present an original score for the fully restored version of Eienstein's most famous film. (doubt anyone will go to this, but hell why not? hehe) [B]Macbeth[/B] Saturday, December 10, 10AM [IMG]http://www.coolidge.org/sites/default/files/images/banners/macbeth-banner.jpg?1311606647[/IMG] 2hr 45mins Verdi’s most evocative music brings Shakespeare’s drama to life on the stage of London's Royal Opera House. Macbeth stars British baritone Simon Keenlyside as the titular tormented ruler of Scotland. Don’t miss this thrilling tale of power and corruption, captured LIVE from London. Verdi’s lifelong love affair with Shakespeare first took wing with Macbeth in 1847. The composer thought the play "one of the greatest creations of man" and, along with his librettist Piave, set out to make of it, "something out of the ordinary" on the operatic stage. Musically, Verdi’s masterstrokes were the macabre choruses for the witches, the evocative orchestral colours and the increased role for the "ugly and evil" Lady Macbeth. Although Verdi later revised the opera in 1865 for Paris, his earlier, more unified version of the opera is used here for this revival of Phyllida Lloyd’s striking staging. Simon Keenlyside and Martina Serafin play the Scottish nobleman and his villainously ambitious wife, who spurs her husband to murder for the sake of his career, and American bass-baritone Raymond Aceto takes the role of Banquo, murder victim and symbol of conscience. Cast Macbeth: Simon Keenlyside Banquo: Raymond Aceto Lady Macbeth: Liudmyla Monastyrska Malcolm: Steven Ebel Lady: Elisabeth Meister Macduff: Dmitri Pittas Director Phyllida Lloyd Conductor Antonio Pappano[/QUOTE]
