Belfast
2021 UK 1hr 37minutes
Drama PG-13 (Strong Language|Some Violence)
In English
New York Times Critic's Pick
Focus Features presents Kenneth Branagh’s BELFAST. Written and directed by Academy Award® nominee Branagh, BELFAST is the humorous, tender and intensely personal story of one boy’s childhood during the tumult of the late 1960s in the city of Branagh’s birth.
BELFAST is a movie straight from Branagh’s own experience. A nine-year-old boy must chart a path towards adulthood through a world that has suddenly turned upside down. His stable and loving community and everything he thought he understood about life is changed forever but joy, laughter, music and the formative magic of the movies remain.
Film Sponsor: Dr. Roz Warner and Dr. Michael Hogan

"Kenneth Branagh makes a masterful memoir of his tumultuous Irish boyhood....set during the Protestant-Catholic conflicts of the late 1960s, the film is both specific and universal, grand and intimate, sweetly romantic and shockingly violent."
- Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times "[Belfast] is a major change of pace for the man who was once dubbed "the next Laurence Olivier," and easily the best thing he's done as a writer-director in decades." - David Fear, Rolling Stone |

Drama/Biography Rated R (Language)

The marriage of Princess Diana and Prince Charles has long since grown cold. Though rumors of affairs and a divorce abound, peace is ordained for the Christmas festivities at the Queen’s Sandringham Estate. There's eating and drinking, shooting and hunting. Diana knows the game. But this year, things will be profoundly different. SPENCER is an imagining of what might have happened during those few fateful days.

Parallel Mothers
2021 Spain 2hr 3minutes
Drama Rated R (Some Sexuality)
In Spanish with English Subtitles
New York Times Critic's Pick
Two women, Janis and Ana, coincide in a hospital room where they are going to give birth. Both are single and became pregnant by accident. Janis, middle-aged, doesn’t regret it and she is exultant. The other, Ana, an adolescent, is scared, repentant and traumatized. Janis tries to encourage her while they move like sleepwalkers along the hospital corridors. The few words they exchange in these hours will create a very close link between the two, which by chance develops and complicates, and changes their lives in a decisive way.

"Everything here is connected and the story flows and flows, achieving a breathless momentum that reveals its intricate design only in retrospect." - Justin Chang Los Angeles Times
"This wonderful, often sunny drama also evokes pain, betrayal, inconsolable loss followed by rebirth and -- far from what you might expect at this point in Mr. Almodóvar's dazzling career -- haunting echoes of his nation's anguished past." - Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal |
