‘Sometimes Always Never’ and Other New Films

June 12, 2020 by Gabriel Laemmle

[JUMP TO FILMS]

Dear Laemmle Fans,

As you may have seen in the news, the state of California will be allowing cinemas to reopen. We are starting to plan for the reopening of several venues, but to be clear, we will not be open this weekend.

Please continue to monitor these emails for timeline updates, or follow us on Facebook and Instagram. You can also help us by filling out this anonymous online survey about the issues most important to you, as you consider whether or not to return to public moviegoing.

In the meantime, we continue our virtual programming this week with Bill Nighy’s Sometimes Always Never, a Scrabble-themed drama that’s sure to impress and entertain. There’s also the most recent film from prolific Israeli filmmaker Boaz Yakin, an animated festival-favorite from Europe, and newly released documentaries on existentialism and aging, as well as growing up indigenous in Australia.

All the best,

Greg Laemmle

Can I use my Laemmle Premiere card to rent one of the videos? Or is it just Credit Cards?
Paypal would also be a wonderful option.

Hey Christine! Unfortunately no Laemmle card… the films are offered by the distributors, so payment isn’t integrated with our internal systems. PayPal may an option, depending on which film! Some platforms won’t work, but other distributors use Vimeo, which does accept PayPal.

#LoveHotel
A tale of two broken souls. A call-girl named Yumi, “night-blooming flower,” and Tetsuro, a married man with a debt to the yakuza, have a violent rendezvous in a cheap love hotel. Years later, haunted by the memory of that night, they reconnect and begin a strange love affair. "[Somai's] exquisite visual compositions (of lonely bedrooms, concrete piers, and nocturnal courtyards) infuse even the film’s racy images with a somber sense of longing and introspection, finding beauty and humanity in the midst of the macabre." ~ New York Times #LoveHotel #ShinjiSomai #JapaneseCinema

In the middle of the staggering, surreal, and endangered Sumapaz Paramo ecosystem; F, a solitary explorer and guardian of the mountains, strives to protect the mystical and fragile land he inhabits. Facing the imminent return of violence, F has been preparing his escape, but before pursuing a new dimension he will have to endure a heartrending farewell. "Unfailingly provocative...colorful, expansive and rangy...this represents Sandino’s determined bid for auteur status." ~ Screen Daily  @hoperunshigh @esaugustosandino
