Friday Night Film Series: The Red Shoes

Not Rated (1948) 133 mins. 60th Anniversary! Art as vocation; art as a sacred calling; art as the purpose of life. Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger created an iconic classic that is a feast for the senses: cinematography, music, acting and ballet are combined to make a magnificent and unforgettable cinematic experience. A beautifully choreographed story within a story awash with vibrant color, drawing on a story from Hans Christian Andersen with echoes of Faust, Nijinsky, and Diaghilev, The Red Shoes explores the tension between the transitory nature of human relations and the timelessness of art. Says Roger Ebert, "…the film is voluptuous in its beauty and passionate in its storytelling. You don't watch it, you bathe in it! A stunning masterpiece!"

Friday Night Film Series: Hallam Foe

Rated "R" (2007) 95 mins. Northern New England premier! Director David Mackenzie's award winning adaptation of Peter Jinks novel filmed in Scotland follows Hallam Foe, a troubled young man who has a talent for spying on people that reveals his darkest fears - and his most peculiar desires. Driven to expose what he thinks to be the true cause of his mother's death, he instead finds himself searching the rooftops of Edinburgh for love. Years after his success in Billy Elliott, Jamie Bell brings tremendous depth as well as rooftop athleticism to his character in an outstanding performance as young Hallam. Hailed by The Guardian as "…quirky, disturbing, funny, interesting, brave, thought-provoking, consistently well-shot, the film features a choice collection of Scottish indie music including Franz Ferdinand, Sons and Daughters, and Orange Juice among others."

Friday Night Film Series: The Mirror

Not Rated (1975) 108 mins. Says The New Yorker, "…Andrei Tarkovsky's masterpiece is his purest and most private achievement. With its interleaved fragments of childhood and later life, switches in texture and color, and competing elemental outbursts of water and fire, the result should by rights be impenetrable; likewise, the fact that the narrator's mother and wife are played by the same actress seems at once bewildering and entirely apt. The smallest details (a stammering child, the wrinkle in the turned page of a book) stick like burrs, and we are left to wonder if any director has delved with more modesty and honesty into the heartbreak of the past. Pure visual poetry, there is no comparison between this and any other film." In Russian and Spanish with English subtitles.
