(Nighly received an Oscar nomination for his LIVING performance, as did Ishiguro for his adaptation.)

βNo movie that Iβve seen this year has moved me as deeply, made me feel as optimistic about cinema or engaged me with such intellectual vigor as EO, whose octogenarian genius auteur and all the donkeys who play EO β Hola, Tako, Marietta, Ettore, Rocco and Mela β deserve all the love and the carrots, too.β β@manohladargis @nytimes
Opening this Fri, Jan 20, ##JerzySkolimowskiβs EO β shot in Poland and Italy, whose hero is a donkey, that is forced to leave the circus. (Tickets at link in bio, or bit.ly/Belcourt-EO)

βSKINAMARINK is like spooky church. It is solemn, isolating, structured and constantly unfolding on the precipice of a chasm that stretches so far that you lose all sense of time and self. This is a psychological minefield, made with an incredible amount of care.β βJason Shawhan @nashvillescene
SKINAMARINK opens this Fri, Jan 13 at the Belcourt, and Jason Shawhan introduces Friβs 9:15pm screening (tickets at link in bio, or bit.ly/SKINAMARINK).

βCORSAGE is the Austrian writer-director Marie Kreutzerβs bold, visually striking and ingeniously anachronistic portrait of an empress in complicated rebellionβ¦. [Vicky] Krieps is wonderful to watch in motion, whether sheβs in the saddle, crossing swords or just leaving a dinner. But sheβs a virtuoso of stillness, and at times she brings to mind old Hollywood sphinxes like Garbo and Dietrichβ¦.β β@manohladargis @nytimes
CORSAGE opens this Fri, Jan 13 at the Belcourt (tickets at link in bio, or at bit.ly/Belcourt-CORSAGE).
