SUMMARY:CECIL B. DEMENTED (2000) w/ John Waters pre-show
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Proves how a dose of smart bad taste can be jolly good fun!” – Time \n\n\n\nOur summer-long John Waters retrospective kicks off with one of his most underrated features: a mocking self-tribute to weirdos\, outlaws\, and the transgressive power of making movies with your freaky friends! Starring Stephen Dorff as lunatic director Sinclair Stevens and a never-better Melanie Griffith as movie goddess Honey Whitlock\, CECIL B. DEMENTED is a cult movie for cinephiles about a movie cult populated by cinephiles! Sinclair leads a devoted band of cinema terrorists who kidnap Honey and force her to star in their underground movie. The twist? She kinda likes it! Inspired by the real-life kidnapping of Patty Hearst (who has a cameo)\, CECIL is a hilarious attack on commercial cinema\, a film that brought Waters back to the underground after a string of more mainstream projects. With jabs at awards\, talking in the movies\, and endless sequelization\, CECIL B. DEMENTED is a kalashnikov aimed at the film business\, mowing down delusional executives and middlebrow respectability-mongers with gleeful malice. \n\n\n\nCome out early for a pre-show dedicated to the Pope of Trash\, starting at 6 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. 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.

SUMMARY:FEMALE TROUBLE (1974) -- Friday Night WTF!
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Sex offences that would shock the Marquis de Sade!” – Rex Reed \n\n\n\nGlamour has never been more grotesque than in FEMALE TROUBLE\, which injects the Hollywood melodrama with anarchic decadence. Divine\, director John Waters’ larger-than-life muse\, engulfs the screen with charisma as Dawn Davenport\, the living embodiment of the film’s lurid mantra\, “Crime is beauty\,” who progresses from a teenage nightmare hell-bent on getting cha-cha heels for Christmas to a fame monster whose egomaniacal impulses land her in the electric chair. Shot in Waters’ native Baltimore on 16 mm\, with a cast drawn from his beloved troupe of regulars\, the Dreamlanders (including Mink Stole\, David Lochary\, Mary Vivian Pearce\, Edith Massey\, and Cookie Mueller)\, this film­—the director’s favorite of his work with Divine—comes to life through the tinsel-toned vision of production designer Vincent Peranio and costume designer/makeup artist Van Smith. An endlessly quotable fan favorite\, FEMALE TROUBLE offers up perverse pleasures that never fail to satisfy. \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:John Waters' CRY-BABY (1990) w/ rockabilly pre-show
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“It’s sleazy! It’s trashy! It’s surprisingly charming!” – The Hungry Creatures \n\n\n\nEisenhower is President. Rock ‘n’ roll is king. And Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker is the baddest hood in his high school. Johnny Depp heads up a supercool cast as the irresistible bad boy whose amazing ability to shed one single tear drives all the girls wild—especially Allison Vernon Williams (Amy Locane)\, a rich\, beautiful “square” who finds herself uncontrollably drawn to the dreamy juvenile delinquent and his forbidden world of rockabilly music\, fast cars and faster women. One of John Waters’ most beloved cult favorites—the film somewhat ironically developed a rabid teen girl fandom that mirrored the one in the film—CRY-BABY is an outrageous comedy that pays loving tribute to early rock ‘n’ roll. (Need some more ironically rockin’ comedy in your life? Check out The Girl Can’t Help It on June 14\, one of Waters’ all-time favorite films!) \n\n\n\nCome out early for a Rockabilly Pre-Show\, starting at 6 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.
