Film Reviews & Previews
THE VAULT writer-director Dan Bush, lead actresses Taryn Manning and Francesca Eastwood, and actor Scott Haze will participate in a Q&A following the 7:30 PM screening at the Ahrya Fine Arts Theater on Thursday, August 31.
Starring James Franco, Taryn Manning, Francesca Eastwood and Scott Haze, THE VAULT opens at the Laemmle NoHo 7 on Friday, September 1st.
KNIGHTRIDERS star Ed Harris will attend our post screening Q&A after the August 31 screening at the NoHo! Stunt coordinator Gary Davis and actress-stuntwoman Jennifer Elizabeth will also attend.
George A. Romero’s KNIGHTRIDERS may well be the only cycle flick ever to be played out in suits of armor. A hardcase motorcycle gang led by Ed Harris has found itself a neat money-making gimmick. Dressed as the knights of the round table, the cyclists pick up a few bucks at local “renaissance” fairs, selling handicrafts made by the more talented members of the gang. Harris’ great rival is Tom Savini, who has his own band of “black knights.” Keep an eye out for a chucklesome unbilled bit by novelist Stephen King.
TALES OF AN IMMORAL COUPLE Director Manolo Caro will participate in Q&As following the 2:40pm show at the Music Hall on Saturday, August 26 and following 1:00pm screening on Sunday, August 27 at the Playhouse 7. Actor Manuel Garcia Rulfo will join him at the Music Hall. Tickets.
TALES OF AN IMMORAL COUPLE (LA VIDA INMORAL DE LA PAREJA IDEAL) centers on Lucio and Martina, two former lovers whose passionate romance began while attending a strict Catholic high school in Mexico. Twenty-five five years later, they unexpectedly run into each other in the city of San Miguel de Allende and despite still sharing an undiminished love for one another they both pretend to be in happy marriages––even if it’s all lies. As they try to maintain their facades, a comedy of errors ensues that reveals the true reasons why the couple ended up separating in the first place.
Kristen Stewart will participate in a Q&A after the 7:30pm screening of THE 2017 SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL SHORT FILM TOUR on Friday, August 25th at our Ahrya Fine Arts in Beverly Hills.
Her short film COME SWIM is one of seven short films featured in the program.
The 2017 Sundance Film Festival Short Film Tour is a 95-minute theatrical program of seven short films selected from this year’s Festival, widely considered the premier showcase for short films and the launch pad for many now-prominent independent filmmakers for more than 30 years. Including fiction, documentary and animation from around the world, the 2017 program offers new audiences a taste of what the Festival offers, from laugh-out-loud comedy to contemplative reflections of the world we live in.
