OPPENHEIMER

July 21 - August 3

The summer’s most anticipated film (for people over 15) can now be experienced in the most-loved cinema in Hartford and beyond! Film fanatic Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight Trilogy, Dunkirk, Inception) has made what may be his magnum opus: shot on 70mm film, using little CGI for its incredible visual effects, and with an ensemble cast of exceptional actors. Leading the cast is Cillian Murphy (Inception, The Wind That Shakes the Barley, BBC’s Peaky Blinders) as the brilliant physicist known as the “father of the nuclear bomb.” Once recruited by the government, Oppenheimer’s genius and determination to defeat Germany and Japan is shot through with ambivalence, knowing that the fearsome weapon could result in limitless destruction. “I think it is a stunning artistic achievement, and I have hopes it will stimulate a global conversation on how to live in the atomic age, what it means to be a patriot, and what is the role for a scientist to speak out.” - Kai Bird, co-author of American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer

Indiana Jones and the

Dial of Destiny

August 4 - August 9

The fifth – and final – installment of the series is the quintessential summer movie, with thrills, stunning locations, and nefarious NASA scientists just asking to be seen in a real cinema with a big screen and fantastic sound! It’s 1969, and a melancholy Jones lives alone in NYC. Showing up out of the blue, Jones’ goddaughter Helena (Phoebe Waller-Smith, writer/star of Fleabag) asks to see the remaining half of Archimedes' Dial, an ancient artifact with time-travel powers. But she’s not the only one, as our “brilliant nerd and badass archeologist” travels the globe chasing Helena, the CIA, and Nazi/NASA scientist Jürgen Voller (Mads Mikkelsen) who wants to time travel back to change the outcome of World War II. From eclectic director James Mangold, whose films include Girl, Interrupted, Ford v. Ferrari, and Academy Award-nominated Logan. “Harrison Ford—80 and still working deep and true—makes sure that Indy goes out in a blaze of glory. One word: Respect.” -Film critic Peter Travers.
