Following the devastation of WWII, Wajda emerged from the rubble as a commanding force in film, launching a career that continually envisioned, and reenvisioned, a Polish national cinema and identity. An educator, aesthete, dissident, community builder, and cinematic experimenter, Wajda remains an influential and monumental figure in world cinema.\n\nFor Wajda at 100, we’re diving into the range and restless energy of a filmmaker who never stopped reinventing himself: the claustrophobic wartime nightmare of Kanal, the cool postwar disillusionment of Ashes and Diamonds, the sharp comedy of Hunting Flies and Roly Poly, the self-questioning Everything for Sale, the feverish ambition of The Promised Land, and the political charge of Man of Marble.

Following the devastation of WWII, Wajda emerged from the rubble as a commanding force in film, launching a career that continually envisioned, and reenvisioned, a Polish national cinema and identity.

Trained as an industrial designer, Mead brought a rare sense of plausibility to science fiction, creating cities, vehicles, machines, and entire environments that felt not just futuristic, but already lived in.

Presenting Mead’s original artwork beyond his cinematic contributions, the exhibition offers another way into the extraordinary imagination behind these films. As curators William Corman and Elon Solo write, Mead created “meticulously rendered visions of the future that balance the extraordinary with the familiar,” imagining lived-in futures that felt tantalizingly within reach.\n\nOur selections move from the neon architecture of Blade Runner and the sleek digital world of TRON to the industrial hardware of Aliens and the cyberpunk world of Johnny Mnemonic.

Chasing shadows. You're played out.\"\n\nBREATHLESS. TOKYO DRIFTER. POINT BLANK. The 1960s saw a shift in crime films, where the grit and grime of American Noir began to blend with the artistic flourishes of New Wave filmmakers. Style became paramount, narratives shifted in psychedelic directions, and for American directors, the Hays Code's restrictions became somewhat more permeable.\n\nSometimes considered the first American neo-noir, POINT BLANK is a truly strange and thorny piece of cinema. Directed by John Boorman (DELIVERANCE, THE EXORCIST II, EXCALIBUR) and based on the Parker crime novels of Donald E. Westlake, POINT BLANK tells the sensitive story of professional criminal and all-around tough guy, Walker (Lee Marvin), who embarks on a revenge-fueled rampage after being double-crossed and left for dead by his “partner,” Mal (John Vernon). Walker is uniquely fixated on Mal, and not unlike previous Queer Film Theory 101 entry BRANDED TO KILL, the macho man, manly, so-masculine-it-can’t-possibly-be-gay antics that ensue are loaded to the gills with subtext. Bizarre, fractured, and gorgeously rendered, POINT BLANK is a mythic tale of American disillusionment and brutality. A crime film born in a dreamlike liminal reality, a beautiful, emptying world of distrust and loneliness. (Does it sound weird yet?) Deeply influential, POINT BLANK is a must-see film for anyone who loves movies. It’s that important. But enough about its influence; is Angie Dickinson in it being cunty as all hell? You bet she is! Wait, is Archie Bunker (Carroll O’Connor) from All In The Family in this movie? YES! Put on your tailored suit and bring your clandestine briefcase full of secret documents and/or money to our special Noirvember screening of this classic film.\n\nBritish director John Boorman brought a European sensibility to a Los Angeles neo-noir: POINT BLANK is Antonioni plus violence, Francesco Rosi without politics. The title reverberates like a pun-point: blank. Lee Marvin is Walker, left for dead in an Alcatraz heist and now out to find the $93,000 he has coming. No more, no less, unless you count revenge. The trail leads to the City of Angels and the syndicate that runs it out of car lots and Santa Monica penthouses, the kind of places you know exist only with a little larceny. Picking up on the modern surface of his locale, Boorman takes a champagne-blonde color scheme to a hallucinatory degree, blonde on blond, like Angie Dickinson's bouffant and Marvin's silvery pate (here, we have the bad, the brunette, and the bald). Los Angeles is inherently horizontal. The payoff, visually and narratively, occurs in that storm drain affectionately known as the L.A. River, viewed from a bridge over imagined waters.

Now, director David Alvarado reveals the fuel behind his legendary career.\n\nAlvarado brings us close to Valdez, charting his career milestones and enduring cultural influence. He employs vibrant stylistic choices, using split screens, remarkable archival footage rescued from decay, and a pachuco narrator who tells it like it is by interjecting candid commentary throughout. Alvarado ensures Luis Valdez’s contributions are unmistakable and that his message — “America is Chicano” — resonates proudly, which feels especially vital for today.", "auditorium": "Little Roxie", "formats": [], "quirks": [], "source_url": "https://roxie.com/film/american-pachuco-the-legend-of-luis-valdez/", "region": { "sacid": "san-francisco", "name": "San Francisco", "url": "https://www.stuffsac.com/san-francisco/" }, "theater": { "sacid": "san-francisco/roxie", "name": "Roxie Theater", "short_name": "Roxie", "color": "#1d4ed8", "source_url": "https://roxie.com/", "url": "https://www.stuffsac.com/san-francisco/roxie/" }, "series": { "sacid": "san-francisco/roxie:roxcine", "name": "RoxCine", "description": "RoxCine is the Roxie’s year-round program of Spanish-language and US Latinx film.

Presenting Mead’s original artwork beyond his cinematic contributions, the exhibition offers another way into the extraordinary imagination behind these films. As curators William Corman and Elon Solo write, Mead created “meticulously rendered visions of the future that balance the extraordinary with the familiar,” imagining lived-in futures that felt tantalizingly within reach.\n\nOur selections move from the neon architecture of Blade Runner and the sleek digital world of TRON to the industrial hardware of Aliens and the cyberpunk world of Johnny Mnemonic.

Trained as an industrial designer, Mead brought a rare sense of plausibility to science fiction, creating cities, vehicles, machines, and entire environments that felt not just futuristic, but already lived in. His work on films including Blade Runner, TRON, and Aliens helped define the visual language of cinematic futurism for generations.\n\nTHE FUTURE ACCORDING TO SYD MEAD celebrates the cinematic legacy of a true futurist visionary, timed to Syd Mead: Future Pastime, a major exhibition of his graphic work on view October 8 through December 17, 2026 at San Francisco’s Transamerica Pyramid Annex Gallery. Presenting Mead’s original artwork beyond his cinematic contributions, the exhibition offers another way into the extraordinary imagination behind these films. As curators William Corman and Elon Solo write, Mead created “meticulously rendered visions of the future that balance the extraordinary with the familiar,” imagining lived-in futures that felt tantalizingly within reach.\n\nOur selections move from the neon architecture of Blade Runner and the sleek digital world of TRON to the industrial hardware of Aliens and the cyberpunk world of Johnny Mnemonic. The program also reaches beyond the films Mead directly designed, with THX 1138 and Welcome II the Terrordome expanding the conversation around the futures he helped us imagine and the filmmakers who pushed those visions in radically different directions.", "source_url": "https://roxie.com/series/the-future-according-to-syd-mead/", "url": "https://www.stuffsac.com/san-francisco/roxie/series/the-future-according-to-syd-mead/", "film_description": null }, "showtimes": [ { "start_on": "2026-12-11", "start_at": "2026-12-11T20:40:00", "formats": [], "quirks": [], "first_seen_at": "2026-10-30T18:28:55" } ], "first_seen_at": "2026-10-30T18:28:55", "last_seen_at": "2026-10-31T02:18:32" } ] }, { "name": "Floating Features: National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation", "description": "The Griswolds have planned all year for a great summer vacation.

Starring an A-list cast that includes Saoirse Ronan (reunited from LADY BIRD), Florence Pugh (MIDSOMMAR), Emma Watson (HARRY POTTER series), Eliza Scanlen (Sharp Objects), and Timothée Chalamet (CALL ME BY YOUR NAME), Gerwig creates a beautiful story of sisterhood that touches on themes of grief, first loves, and female independence.\n\nThe film follows four sisters growing up in Massachusetts during the Civil War, each of them ambitious in their own ways. Saoirse Ronan plays the lead of the film, Jo March, a cunning young woman who dreams of telling stories for a living when she is older. She is often befuddled by her sister Meg (Watson), who desires to one day be a wife; is annoyed by Amy (Pugh), who trails after her like a little puppy; and is enamored with Beth (Scanlen), who is perhaps the kindest of them all.\n\nGerwig’s LITTLE WOMEN is like a cozy hug on a brisk winter day. A lovely story that brilliantly balances tears with laughs, it’s no wonder it became an instant holiday classic when it was released in theaters seven years ago.\n\nHaving already once revolutionized the coming-of-age story with her debut LADY BIRD, Greta Gerwig has somehow outdone herself with this gorgeous and thoroughly original rendition of the beloved Louisa May Alcott classic. Bringing her effusive humor, authenticity, and irresistible warmth to the otherwise mannered Civil War-era New England, Gerwig's adaptation of LITTLE WOMEN breathes visceral new life into the March sisters – portraying them as unique, complicated, flawed, and astonishingly human. So human that you will leave the theater wanting to text Jo March and, for several reasons, this will not be a possibility.\n\nYou may also find it physically impossible not to chef's kiss at the cast, which is as close to pitch-perfect as it gets. Starring Saoirse Ronan as Jo, Emma Watson as Meg, Florence Pugh as Amy, and Eliza Scanlen as Beth, LITTLE WOMEN also features Laura Dern (!), Meryl Streep (!), Bob Odenkirk (!), and Timothée Chalamet as the dashing but lovelorn Laurie (!!!).\n\nSave for a fireworks show, sky-written ode, or Mount Rushmore-type situation, we cannot recommend this rich, heartrending wonder of a film anymore.

One of the great European directors of the 20th century, whose work and political engagement played a decisive role in bringing Polish film to international audiences, Wajda’s films have long been unavailable and difficult to view in the United States.\n\nScreenings of Andrzej Wajda’s films in the USA in 2026 are part of the ‘Wajda 100 Tour – North America’ project, organized by DI Factory with the financial support of the Polish Film Institute.\n\nBorn in 1926 into a home that honored fine art (with a literary schoolteacher mother and his aide-de-camp father an amateur painter), Andrzej Wajda studied sculpture and oil painting before enlisting in the anti-fascist, and anti-communist, Home Army at the age of sixteen. Following the devastation of WWII, Wajda emerged from the rubble as a commanding force in film, launching a career that continually envisioned, and reenvisioned, a Polish national cinema and identity. An educator, aesthete, dissident, community builder, and cinematic experimenter, Wajda remains an influential and monumental figure in world cinema.\n\nFor Wajda at 100, we’re diving into the range and restless energy of a filmmaker who never stopped reinventing himself: the claustrophobic wartime nightmare of Kanal, the cool postwar disillusionment of Ashes and Diamonds, the sharp comedy of Hunting Flies and Roly Poly, the self-questioning Everything for Sale, the feverish ambition of The Promised Land, and the political charge of Man of Marble.

Winter is upon us; it’s theoretically supposed to be getting colder, and cuffing season is well underway. It’s the perfect time to watch EYES WIDE SHUT, Stanley Kubrick’s erotic holiday mystery film about how heterosexual marriage is one big spooky lie! That’s right, “cineaphiles,” we’re closing out our 2026 syllabus applying the Queer Film Theory 101 lens to one of the GOATs. The straights are gonna be mad at us!\n\nDr. Bill Harford (Tom Cruise) and his wife, Alice (Nicole Kidman), seem to have it all: a thriving medical practice, a healthy young daughter, and a fancy-ass New York apartment, but something uncomfortable simmers beneath the surface of their idyllic heterosexual bliss. When Alice reveals a sexy little secret desire, Bill is sent into a tailspin, leading to an odyssey of sexual tourism through the seedy underbelly of New York’s upper crust. For whatever reason, Tom Cruise is exceptionally gifted at portraying a man crumbling under the weight of a masculinity in crisis, and Nicole Kidman shines as a woman who's had it with the trophy wife lifestyle. Featuring an incredible supporting cast including Sydney Pollack, Todd Field, and a cheeky cameo from bisexual icon Alan Cumming, EYES WIDE SHUT is a perfect movie to watch if you want to get in a confusing and convoluted argument with your partner just before the holidays. It will leave you apologizing profusely, but you won't be exactly sure what you’re apologizing for. “Don't you think one of the charms of marriage is that it makes deception a necessity for both parties?”\n\nIn IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE, Jimmy Stewart’s George Bailey, at the height of his suicidal despair and panic, imagines a world in which he doesn’t exist. Stanley Kubrick goes one step further in sending Tom Cruise down an odyssey of sexual confusion and paranoia to learn the true meaning of Christmas.\n\nAdapted from the Austrian short story Traumnovelle, Kubrick’s final film peeks us into the privileged world of Dr. Bill Hartford and his wife Alice (Cruise and Nicole Kidman), two well-to-do attractive socialites who, by all accounts, have it made. In a marijuana-fueled argument, Alice reveals thoughts of infidelity that send Bill into an existential panic, leading to an absurdist walkabout through New York that involves – you guessed it – a mysterious sex cult run by a shrouded aristocracy.\n\nDid Kubrick make this to break up Cruise and Kidman’s marriage? How much did he know about mysterious sex trafficking rings? Did Sydney Pollack originate the shirtless-in-suspenders look? Clearly, the film poses more questions than it answers. For certain, EYES WIDE SHUT is a brutally funny sexscapade that puts an ellipses at the end of Kubrick’s storied career – and, most importantly – stands as a crucial text for our modern world.

One of the great European directors of the 20th century, whose work and political engagement played a decisive role in bringing Polish film to international audiences, Wajda’s films have long been unavailable and difficult to view in the United States.\n\nScreenings of Andrzej Wajda’s films in the USA in 2026 are part of the ‘Wajda 100 Tour – North America’ project, organized by DI Factory with the financial support of the Polish Film Institute.\n\nBorn in 1926 into a home that honored fine art (with a literary schoolteacher mother and his aide-de-camp father an amateur painter), Andrzej Wajda studied sculpture and oil painting before enlisting in the anti-fascist, and anti-communist, Home Army at the age of sixteen. Following the devastation of WWII, Wajda emerged from the rubble as a commanding force in film, launching a career that continually envisioned, and reenvisioned, a Polish national cinema and identity. An educator, aesthete, dissident, community builder, and cinematic experimenter, Wajda remains an influential and monumental figure in world cinema.\n\nFor Wajda at 100, we’re diving into the range and restless energy of a filmmaker who never stopped reinventing himself: the claustrophobic wartime nightmare of Kanal, the cool postwar disillusionment of Ashes and Diamonds, the sharp comedy of Hunting Flies and Roly Poly, the self-questioning Everything for Sale, the feverish ambition of The Promised Land, and the political charge of Man of Marble.
