Tropic Thunder
Hollywood self-parodies are a dime a dozen, but Ben Stiller’s pleasingly tasteless takedown of the industry—from egomaniacal actors to grotesque producers to the clichéd big-budget products themselves—is a riotous pleasure throughout.

Honey Don’t!
Director-writer Ethan Coen and writer-producer-editor Tricia Cooke’s latest collaboration, Honey Don't! is a dark comedy about a small-town private investigator named Honey O’Donahue (Margaret Qualley), who delves into a series of strange deaths tied to a mysterious church. Followed by a Q&A with Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke.
The Long Goodbye
With the playfully unlikely casting of anti-heartthrob Gould as private eye Philip Marlowe, The Long Goodbye is both a satire of and an homage to the world of Raymond Chandler, a neo-noir classic that transplants the novelist’s languid vision of Los Angeles to the 1970s. Introduced by Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke.
North by Northwest (70mm)
Hitchcock's breathless, almost improbably entertaining suspense thriller is his ultimate “wrong man” movie, with Cary Grant as Roger Thornhill, an unassuming advertising executive on the run from a dastardly group of spies who have mistaken him for a government agent.
