SUMMARY:Thelma & Louise
DESCRIPTION:Date: February 14 + 15 at 1:30pm \nRuntime: 2 hours 10 minutes \nMPA Rating: R \nOrganization: Maine Film Center \nVenue: Maine Film Center\, 93 Main Street\, Waterville\, Maine \nThis film is eligible for the Youth Arts Access Fund. \n\n\n\nTwo women\, a turquoise Thunderbird\, the ride of a lifetime. \nMeek housewife Thelma (Geena Davis) joins her friend Louise (Susan Sarandon)\, an independent waitress\, on a short fishing trip. When a chance encounter at a roadside bar goes horribly wrong\, their weekend getaway becomes a high-speed flight from the law as the two women attempt to flee to Mexico\, meeting a host of characters along the way that include the dashing-but-dangerous J.D. (Brad Pitt's star-making role) and a sympathetic police officer (Harvey Keitel). There's no trip like a girls' trip! \nWinning an Oscar for Callie Khoury's screenplay and nominated for five others\, including two Best Actresses and Best Director\, Ridley Scott's legendary feminist ride-or-die road trip is an utterly irresistible reimagining of the previously male-dominated road odyssey genre that reminds us of the resources\, capabilities\, and freedoms we may not know we possess. "Thelma and Louise celebrates the myth of two carefree souls piling into a 1956 T-Bird and driving out of town to have some fun and raise some hell. We know the road better than that\, however\, and we know the toll it exacts: Before their journey is done\, these characters will have undergone a rite of passage\, and will have discovered themselves."—Roger Ebert.

SUMMARY:Cool Runnings

The only problem is\, how do you train a bobsled team that's never even seen snow before? \nBased on the real story of Jamaica's inaugural bobsled team and featuring John Candy in one of his best roles\, Cool Runnings is "a sweet-natured\, high-spirited comedy\, that rare movie that plays effectively to all ages. Even rarer\, it celebrates genuine sportsmanship\, placing the emphasis back on how the game is played in the face of the winning-is-everything philosophy that permeates every aspect of contemporary life."—Kevin Thomas\, Los Angeles Times. \n(PG-13\, 108 min.\, 1993) \ntickets + trailer

SUMMARY:Cinema Explorations: Familiar Touch
DESCRIPTION:Date: January 31 + February 1 at 10am \nRuntime: 1 hour 30 minutes \nMPA Rating: Not Rated \nOrganization: Maine Film Center \nVenue: Maine Film Center\, 93 Main Street\, Waterville\, Maine \nFree and open to all\, ticket reservations encouraged. \nPart of Cinema Explorations\, a wintertime community-curated film series. \nMany films show us experiences we have never had nor do we ever expect to have. Ruth (Kathleen Chalfant) and her family are experiencing something we will find familiar. It is also likely that we have pondered whether Ruth’s fate could be our own. When her son (H. Jon Benjamin) arrives\, she mistakes him for a suitor. Their “date” takes them to an assisted living facility Ruth does not remember she had previously selected for herself. Among her fellow memory care residents\, Ruth feels certain she is somewhere she does not belong. As she slowly begins to accept the warmth and support of care workers Vanessa (Carolyn Michelle) and Brian (Andy McQueen)\, she finds new ways to ground herself in her body even as her mind embarks on a journey all its own. \nThis coming-of-old-age feature from writer-director Sarah Friedland (the 2025 Independent Spirit Someone to Watch Award-winner) compassionately follows the winding path of octogenarian Ruth’s shifting memories and desires while remaining rooted in her sage perspective. "Friedland’s film\, as sharp as it is soft\, conveys both the terror of losing the life you recognize\, and the intermittent\, fragmented joy of finding it again."—Guy Lodge\, Variety. \ntickets

Riccardo Frizza takes the podium for one of opera’s most ravishing works. \nAdmission: $16-19. Eligible for the Youth Arts Access Fund. \ntickets
