“There are monsters in SOUTHBOUND that are among the best I’ve seen onscreen in a long time.” (Luke Thompson, The Robot’s Voice)

“This anthology of five horror tales is the rare group effort without a dud, as it cruises through variations on the genre with style and confidence.” (Nicolas Rapold, Film Comment Magazine)

Anniversary Classics: February Screenings include LA DOLCE VITA in Santa Monica, WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? with George Segal in West LA

February 8, 2016 by Lamb L.

We’re celebrating Oscar season with screenings of two Academy Award powerhouses in our continuing Anniversary Classics Series.

La Dolce VitaFirst, we offer a 55th anniversary screening of LA DOLCE VITA, one of the most influential of foreign films, and the recipient of 4 Academy Award nominations in 1961 – Best Director and Original Screenplay for Federico Fellini, Art Direction and Costume Design (an Oscar winner for Piero Gherardi). Fellini’s sardonic take on the decadence of Rome in the 1960s reverberated throughout modern film history, and heavily influenced the 2013 Oscar foreign-language winner THE GREAT BEAUTY. So cruise along the Via Veneto with Marcello Mastroianni, then take a dip in the Trevi Fountain with the voluptuous Anita Ekberg, and see it all at the sleekly elegant, newly re-opened Monica Film Center!

LA DOLCE VITA will screen on Tuesday, February 16 at 7:30 PM at the Monica Film Center in Santa Monica. Tickets on sale now at laemmle.com/ac.

Next, we look back 50 years to celebrate one of the most provocative films in cinema history – WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? (1966). The film adaptation of playwright Edward Albee’s scathing dissection of a marriage was brought to the screen with most of its graphic dialogue intact due to the relaxation of the censorious Production Code in its fading, final gasp. VIRGINIA WOOLF garnered a near-record 13 nominations including Best Picture and Best Director for tyro film director Mike Nichols, winning 5 Oscars including Elizabeth Taylor (Best Actress) and Sandy Dennis (Supporting Actress). The rest of the 4 character cast were also nominated: Richard Burton (Best Actor) and our special guest, George Segal (Supporting Actor) who will join us for a Q & A after the screening.

We are also presenting this screening as a tribute to the late Haskell Wexler who died late last year at the age of 93. Wexler won his first Oscar for filming VIRGINIA WOOLF in glorious black and white, an art form endangered by the mid-sixties.

WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? with special guest George Segal will screen on Tuesday, February 23 at 7:00 PM at the Royal Theater in West LA. Tickets are on sale now at laemmle.com/ac.

Photo Gallery: The All New Laemmle Monica Film Center

February 3, 2016 by Lamb L.

If you haven’t had a chance to visit our newly opened Monica Film Center, you’re missing out! It looks fantastic and fellow movie nerds have already said it feels like home.

But what’s a movie theater without movies, right? Well, we’re off to a great start on that front as well! The latest Coen brothers film HAIL, CAESAR! opens this Friday. TROUBLEMAKERS: THE STORY OF LAND ART also starts Friday and the film’s director will participate in a Q&A following the 7:20PM show opening night. ANOMALISA, THE LADY IN THE VAN, and THE 2016 OSCAR NOMINATED SHORT DOCS will continue through next week. Thursday is the last day to catch the Oscar-nominated foreign films, THEEB and MUSTANG.

We invite you stop by if you’re in the neighborhood, even if you don’t have time to see a movie. Need more convincing? Take a look at these photos!

Second floor mezzanine. Chandelier coming soon.

The Monica Theatre on 2nd Street has been a fixture in the Santa Monica arts scene for 44 years – first as the “Monica Twin” and since 1981 as the “Monica 4-Plex.” Now, after a complete rebuild, the venue’s storied past projects to an even brighter future.

The Monica Film Center now has six auditoriums, all with digital projection, comfy seating, and optimally proportioned, intimate viewing. Adjacent to the two auditoriums upstairs is a mezzanine lounge. In a first for us, visitors will soon be able to order beer and wine from the concession stand.

Later this year, Flower Child will open in the ground-floor restaurant space. A second restaurant, to be announced, will open on the rooftop deck.

Online tickets are available now. The films opening Friday are:

THE 2016 OSCAR-NOMINATED SHORT DOCUMENTARIES
ANOMALISA
THE LADY IN THE VAN
MUSTANG
THEEB

Thank you for your patience! We think you’ll agree that it has been worth the wait!

A rare chance to see all five Oscar-nominated foreign language films before the Academy Awards.

January 20, 2016 by Lamb L.

embraceThe Academy Awards are many things: entertaining, infuriating, moving, boring. For foreign films, our bread and butter, the Oscars can be quite effective at bringing attention to worthy movies from abroad. That done, the next challenge for cinephiles in the general public is to find a way to see them as they were meant to be seen: on a big screen with an audience in a movie theater. In a typical year, the five nominees for the Foreign Language Film Oscar include one or two that hit theaters months earlier, one or two that are currently in theaters, and one or two that may come out after the big night. This year, that night is February 28 and as luck would have it all five films have or will have Laemmle engagements between now and the Academy Awards ceremony.

The nominees are:

EMBRACE OF THE SERPENT ~ from Colombia, with its first nomination. We open the film February 26th at the Monica Film Center, Playhouse 7 and Town Center 5 and March 5 as a weekend morning show at the Claremont.

MUSTANG ~ from France, with its 37th nomination, its first since A Prophet in 2009. France hasn’t won this award since Indochine in 1992. Now showing at the Playhouse; opening Friday at the Music Hall and February 5th at the NoHo 7 and Claremont 5.

SON OF SAUL ~ from Hungary, with its ninth nomination in this category. It has won once, in 1981 for Mephisto. It’s now playing at the Playhouse and Town Center and opening January 29th at the Monica Film Center and February 12th at the Claremont 5 and NoHo 7.

THEEB ~ from Jordan, with its first nomination. Opens Friday at the Music Hall with weekend morning shows at the Playhouse and Claremont.

A WAR ~ from Denmark, with its 11th nomination. Denmark has taken this prize three times, including for Babette’s Feast in 1987. We open it February 12th at the Royal, Playhouse and Town Center.

Avail yourself of these terrific films before the Oscar ceremony!

New Year’s Resolution: See More Movies, Spend Less Money

January 13, 2016 by Lamb L.

‘Spend less money’ always ranks high on those annual lists of top resolutions for the New Year. And, no matter how many films we see here in Laemmle-land, ‘see more movies’ always sits atop our list.

Frequent Movie-Goer Tickets
Pay only $7.50 per admission when you purchase a block of 20 tickets. Our new Frequent Movie-Goer Tickets are now available at theater box offices and online.
