Dear Laemmle Fans,
Moviegoing in Los Angeles County has returned! We’re hard at work getting Laemmle Theatres ready to open again, and we hope to publicize an official date soon – make sure to check our website often and stay tuned for further emails, so you don’t miss the big announcement.
In the meantime, we’ve updated our Awards Season collection to reflect the recent Oscar nominations, so there’s no shortage of excellent virtual options to choose from. Of special note is a surprise Best International Feature nod for last week’s new release Quo Vadis, Aida? (from Serbia). Other nominees from the same category also available on Laemmle Virtual Cinema include the Danish entry Another Round, and the Romanian entry Collective (also nominated for Best Feature Documentary). We expect to add The Mole Agent, another Best Documentary Feature nominee, beginning next Friday, March 26.
New releases this week are no less exciting, leading off with the critically acclaimed French comedy Perfumes. Other foreign offerings include the thrilling Brazilian drama The Fever, and the finely-crafted British drama Rose Plays Julie (I said foreign, not foreign language).
From this side of the pond, there’s the genre-bending festival favorite The Five Rules of Success, as well as the thoughtfully-produced (albeit controversially-titled) documentary Wojnarowicz: F*ck You F*ggot F*cker. Lastly, four more titles from our previously advertised Culture Vulture collection are now available as well.
All the best,
Greg Laemmle
