SUMMARY:Legendary fantasy-adventure extravaganza JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS (1963)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Everyone loves it. It belongs on a short list of movies that are almost guaranteed to please everyone in any given audience\, no matter how old or young they are or what culture they were raised in.” – Matt Zoller-Seitz\, RogerEbert.com \n\n\n\nOne of the greatest\, most thrilling adventure movies of all time\, Jason and the Argonauts is pure cinematic joy. Based on the epic poem from Ancient Greece\, The Argonautica\, the film tells the tale of Jason (Todd Armstrong)\, son of a murdered King\, who is diverted from ascending the throne by his search for the Golden Fleece\, which can bring peace to his kingdom. A rip-roaring\, sea-faring fantasy-adventure\, Jason and the Argonauts is best known (and will forever be loved) for containing some of animator Ray Harryhausen’s most legendary effects: the multi-headed hydra\, the giant bronze statue come to life\, the bird-monster Harpies\, and of course\, the sword-wielding skeleton warriors. For fans of stop-motion\, this film is basically uncut heroin. Or\, as Tom Hanks perhaps more elegantly put it\, “Some say Casablanca or Citizen Kane – I say that Jason and the Argonauts is the greatest film ever made.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person. However\, we encourage researching titles to determine if a screening may contain content that could be upsetting to you. Please feel free to contact us for guidance on specific films. Information about content can also be found on Common Sense Media\, IMDB and DoesTheDogDie.com\, as well as through general internet searches. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nAll ages are welcome at Arkadin except for Drinkolas Cage events\, which are restricted to 21+. We follow the MPAA rating guidelines for all other films.\n\n\n\nTickets can be purchased using the BUY TICKETS link above. Upon ordering\, you will receive a confirmation email from Square. Tickets may also be purchased on the day of the show at the concession counter.\n\n\n\nIf you’ve purchased advance tickets\, when you arrive\, please give your name at the concession counter to check in. \n\n\n\nTickets are returnable by sending a request through the contact form located on our About Us page prior to showtime.\n\n\n\nWhen an event is sold out\, we reserve the right to release open seats to customers on the waitlist. If you have a pre-purchased ticket and arrive late and there is no seat for you\, your ticket will be refunded.\n\n\n\nAll screenings are held in our indoor theater unless indicated otherwise in the event description above.\n\n\n\nPlease respect your fellow movie-goers by remaining quiet and refraining from using your cell phone throughout the screening.

SUMMARY:THE LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU (2004) w/ Jacques Cousteau pre-show
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Still one of Wes Anderson’s funniest and most poignant movies\, as well as a love letter to his favorite muse: Bill Murray… The Life Aquatic is Wes Anderson’s most underrated movie.” – Den of Geek \n\n\n\nA wildly original adventure-comedy\, The Life Aquatic was the film that definitively proved that Wes Anderson exclusively makes Wes Anderson movies\, and if you don’t like it…that’s your problem. Bill Murray heads a typically eclectic ensemble cast as internationally famous oceanographer Steve Zissou\, who sets sail aboard the R.V. Belafonte on an expedition to hunt down the mysterious\, elusive\, possibly nonexistent Jaguar Shark that killed Zissou’s partner. The motley crew includes Owen Wilson as a sweet-natured airline pilot\, Cate Blanchett as a pregnant journalist\, Anjelica Huston as Zissou’s estranged wife\, Jeff Goldblum as her new lover\, and (our favorite) Willem Dafoe as Zissou’s obsequious German first mate. Shot in eye-popping Cinemascope\, The Life Aquatic is packed with stop-motion sea life\, brilliant “dollhouse” cutaways of the Belafonte\, hilarious gags\, and interstitial samba covers of Bowie classics courtesy of Brazilian musician Seu Jorge\, but underneath it all is a gorgeously poignant sense of yearning and loss. Hey\, this is a Wes Anderson movie\, after all. \n\n\n\nBefore the film\, we’ll pay tribute to the core inspiration for The Life Aquatic\, oceanographer-cum-filmmaker Jacques Cousteau with a pre-show beginning at 6:30 pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:Karel Zeman's eye-popping INVENTION FOR DESTRUCTION (1958) w/ Georges Méliès' "The Impossible Voyage"
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The spectacular blend of animation\, artful sets\, mattes and live action… makes this whimsical and funny fairy-tale so enjoyable.” – Scifist \n\n\n\nBrilliant Czech animator Karel Zeman’s eye-popping spectacle is like a Victorian illustration come to life. Inspired by the romantic fantasy novels Jules Verne\, Invention for Destruction faithfully recreates the line engraving style of the pictures in the original editions of Verne’s work. Combining live actors with drawn animation\, cutouts\, matte paintings\, miniatures\, stop-motion\, and meticulously detailed horizontal line filters\, Zeman produced one of the most astoundingly original works in cinema. Original released in the US as The Fabulous World of Jules Verne\, Invention for Destruction not only went on to become the most successful Czech film in history\, it also basically invented steampunk. \n\n\n\nBut that’s not all! We’ve got some more Verne-inspired fantasia for you in the form of silent maestro Georges Méliès’ brilliant 1904 short The Impossible Voyage\, playing immediately before the feature. Based on Verne’s 1882 play Journey Through the Impossible\, this short is a fantastic showcase for Méliès’ wildly imaginative visual bravado. \n\n\n\nOTHER WORLDS brings you to strange new realms through science fiction and fantasy. Featuring classics\, hidden gems\, and cult favorites\, this series offers a mind-bending retreat from our mundane reality. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nAll ages are welcome at Arkadin except for Drinkolas Cage events\, which are restricted to 21+.

SUMMARY:DELIVERANCE (1972)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“A haunting\, nightmarish vision.” – Time Out \n\n\n\n“This is the weekend they didn’t play golf\,” reads the ominously jocular tagline for director John Boorman’s legendarily unsettling 1972 film\, which stands as one of the most inspired combinations of filmmaker and source material in cinematic history. Based on James Dickey’s novel\, Deliverance follows a group of Atlanta businessmen who take a canoe trip through the remote backwoods of North Georgia. What happens next has lost little of its power to shock\, despite years of imitations and parodies. Boorman is in full command of his material here\, attaching a haunting\, mythic quality to the starkness of Dickey’s story. Combined with Vilmos Zsigmond’s moody camerawork and the sparse banjo-driven score\, the director gives his locations a heightened\, haunting quality. As gripping as the work behind the camera is though\, the film wouldn’t have nearly the kick it does without the central performances by Jon Voight\, Burt Reynolds\, Ronny Cox\, and especially Ned Beatty\, who skews the already slippery moral compass further by not playing his character as particularly sympathetic\, even in the wake of the movie’s most infamous scene. A surprise box office smash\, Deliverance was nominated for three Academy Awards\, including Best Picture\, losing out to The Godfather. The film still hits a primal nerve early on and then masterfully keeps on digging\, transforming its story of horror into something primal\, grasping\, and timeless. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND (1996) -- 30th anniversary screening w/ Muppet pre-show
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“A pleasure from start to finish\, Muppet Treasure Island orchestrates people\, puppets\, shameless gags and sublimely ridiculous production numbers to wryly rework Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic kids’ tale.” – LA Weekly \n\n\n\nNo one adapts literary classics like the Muppets!

Based on Robert Louis Stevenson’s swashbuckling tale of salty dogs and pirate’s gold\, this musical-comedy-action-adventure is packed with catchy sea shanties\, raucous comedy\, and Mr. Bimbo\, the man who lives inside Fozzie Bear’s finger. Come celebrate 30 years of high-seas hilarity with this anniversary screening! \n\n\n\nPlus\, come out early for a Muppet pre-show starting at 1:30 pm\, featuring funny moments from your favorite felt friends. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nAll ages are welcome at Arkadin except for Drinkolas Cage events\, which are restricted to 21+.

SUMMARY:Homer's Odyssey as you've never seen it before... NOSTOS: THE RETURN (1989) presented by Lost in the Arthouse
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLOST IN THE ARTHOUSE is a monthly series hosted by Arkadin co-owner Keith Watson that takes you to hidden corners of filmdom far from Hollywood. From must-see classics to obscurities waiting to be discovered\, these films stand at cinema’s bleeding edge. \n\n\n\n“A poetry of lived quotidian experience that gradually becomes an epic… [Nostos] is simply beautiful. A masterpiece.” – L’Unità \n\n\n\nWhile Christopher Nolan has given us the bombastic big-budget version of The Odyssey\, Italian filmmaker Franco Piavoli’s Nostos: The Return sits at the opposite end of the cinematic spectrum\, a gorgeous\, lyrical meditation on humankind’s relationship to nature and its thirst for exploration that boils Homer’s epic down to a raw\, timeless essence. Filmed in the Mediterranean and told in an imaginary proto-language drawn from Ancient Greek\, Latin\, and Sanskrit\, Nostos transports the viewer back to the dawn of civilization\, reimagining Odysseus’s journey not as an action-adventure yarn but as a journey of the soul. Told with images of haunting power in a style Piavoli described as “symphonic” rather than the “theatrical” mode favored by conventional narrative cinema\, Nostos is\, in its transcendent beauty and cosmic scope\, just as epic as Nolan’s blockbuster version. Rarely screened in the U.S.\, this largely unknown masterpiece of world cinema is crying out for discovery. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.
