Swoon-inducing opera, coming your way: LA BOHEME. The Royal Opera recently posted some fantastic interviews and making-of videos to YouTube. We’ll be screening the production in all six Laemmle venues on Monday, July 6 and 7:30 PM and Tuesday, July 7 at 1 PM.
7 MINUTES Filmmaker at the NoHo Opening Night
7 MINUTES, which premiered at the 2014 Austin Film Festival, follows three desperate young men who are forced by circumstance to commit a brazen robbery. As each minute of the event unfolds, true motives are revealed and stakes intensify. What begins as a simple plan – ‘in and out in seven minutes’ – quickly becomes a dangerous game of life and death.
7 MINUTES writer-director Jay Martin will participate in a Q&A after the 7:30 screening at the NoHo on Friday, June 26. The Q&A will be moderated by Marc Webb (The Amazing Spider-Man 1 and 2, (500) Days of Summer).
Animated Palestinian Documentary THE WANTED 18 Opens this Weekend at the NoHo; Q&A’s Scheduled.
Through a clever mix of stop motion animation and interviews, THE WANTED 18 recreates an astonishing true story: the Israeli army’s pursuit of 18 cows, whose independent milk production on a Palestinian collective farm was declared “a threat to the national security of the state of Israel.”
We’ll be hosting Q&A’s after the 7:40 PM screenings of THE WANTED 18 at the NoHo this Friday and Saturday, June 19 and 20 and after the 5:30 show on Sunday, June 21:
June 19: Ina Fichman, Producer of THE WANTED 18; Salam Al-Marayati, President of Muslim Public Affairs Council; Suhad Babaa, Executive Director of Just Vision;
June 20: Ina Fichman, Producer of THE WANTED 18; Suhad Babaa, Executive Director of Just Vision;
June 21: Suhad Babaa, Executive Director of Just Vision.
REVENGE OF THE MEKONS Filmmaker and Rico Bell of the Mekons in Person at the Playhouse, Royal and NoHo.
The acclaimed new documentary Revenge of the Mekons charts the unlikely career of the genre-defying collective notorious for being—as rock critic Greil Marcus notes—“the band that took punk ideology most seriously.” Born out of the 1977 British punk scene, the Mekons progressed from a group of socialist art students with no musical skills to the prolific, raucous progeny of Hank Williams. Joe Angio’s exuberant documentary follows their improbable history and reveals how punk’s reigning contrarians continue to make bold, unpredictable music.
Revenge of the Mekons filmmaker Joe Angio will participate in Q&A’s after the 9:55 PM screenings at the Playhouse on Friday, June 19 as well as the 7:30 PM screenings at the NoHo 7 on Monday, June 22 and at the Royal on Tuesday, June 23. Rico Bell of the Mekons will join him for the NoHo and Royal screenings.
TOMMY WISEAU in Person with THE ROOM and THE NEIGHBORS; + free football

THE ROOM is an electrifyingly funny cult black comedy audience participation / international cult phenomenon about love, passion, betrayal and lies. Writer/director Tommy Wiseau stars as Johnny, a successful banker who feels so badly wronged by those nearest and dearest to him that he finds himself asking, can you ever really trust anyone?

Laemmle Theatres & EAT|SEE|HEAR Join Forces for THROWBACK THURSDAY Film Series
New #TBT Throwback Thursday Series Kicks Off with “Swimming With Sharks” on Thursday, June 4 at Laemmle’s Playhouse 7 Theatre in Pasadena. Get your tickets now!
Opening Night, Every Attendee Will Have a Chance to Win a Pair of Tickets to any upcoming Laemmle film plus a free large popcorn and drink.
Eat|See|Hear, L.A.’s premier outdoor movie, food truck and live music event series, and Laemmle Theaters today announced the first eight movies of their 2015 Throwback Thursday (#TBT) schedule featuring an offbeat mix of older nostalgic and cult films. #TBT runs every single Thursday night beginning June 4th through 2016 at rotating Laemmle Theaters across Los Angeles.
Each night will feature a themed FOOD TRUCK for patrons to grab dinner and a movie! For instance, a truck serving French cuisine (frog legs) may accompany a screening of The Triplets of Belleville. All movie-goers (not just those attending Throwback Thursday) will be allowed to bring food truck items inside the venue.
With respect to the “Hear” aspect, patrons will relax inside the auditorium to playlists specifically curated for each event as they wait for the program to start. What’s more, on certain occasions, celebrities connected to the film will be on hand to make a special presentation or stay afterward for a Q&A.
Tickets are available at http://www.laemmle.com/tbt
Sharon Sperber, Executive Producer at Eat|See|Hear says, “We have partnered with Laemmle Theatres on a variety of events over the last number of years so it was a natural fit for us to join forces to create a regular weekly series designed to show movies we want to see again on the big screen and think everyone else should check out the experience in a theater environment, too.”
Greg Laemmle, President of Laemmle Theatres, concurs: “Working with Eat|See|Hear on Throwback Thursdays allows us to create innovative, event-style programming for our various communities. In addition, it gives movie buffs a chance to experience theatrically a great selection of eclectic titles that don’t typically get shown on the repertory circuit. And there’s going to be great food – so what’s not to love?”
Plans for the series include films that have connections to upcoming major releases, such as WESTWORLD in honor of the upcoming Jurassic World and the cult movie SHOWGIRLS timed with the release of Magic Mike XXL. There will also be monthly themes such as “Summer/Beach Movies,” “Back to School,” “Music Films” (not to be confused with Musicals) and a Gangster series featuring such movies as GOODFELLAS and MARRIED TO THE MOB.
Tickets are $12 and may be purchased online at http://www.laemmle.com or at the theater. As with regular screenings, discounts are available for children, seniors, and Laemmle Premiere Card holders.

THE NIGHTMARE Filmmaker Rodney Ascher in Person for a Q&A at the NoHo 7
From the director of Room 237, THE NIGHTMARE is a documentary-horror film exploring the phenomenon of sleep paralysis. People who suffer this condition find themselves trapped between the sleeping and waking worlds, unable to move but aware of their surroundings, while subject to disturbing sights and sounds, including ghostly ‘shadow men.’ This is one of many reasons many people insist this is more than just a sleep disorder.
We open THE NIGHTMARE on Friday, June 5 at the NoHo 7, Music Hall and Playhouse 7. Director Rodney Ascher will participate in a Q&A after the 7:40 PM screening at the NoHo on Saturday, June 6.
