  COMING ATTRACTIONS - SEPT 7 - ONCE UPON A TIME IN A CINEMA & LATE FAME + SPECIALS

Dress appropriately for maximum involvement. DANNY & THE FIGGATONES jam on OCT 3, Tix o/s this week. DANA LYONS , THESE SONGS OF FREEDOM, Rescheduled to SAT OCT 10 @ NOON EVE, an animated story by Jesse Kogita, screens OCT 11 @ 1pm. I SHALL NOT HATE , film and talk by DR. ABUELAISH, SUN, OCT 25 @ 11AM THE COMMENTARY COYOTE VS ACME. The last hurrah of Wile E. Coyote’s ( fasts hellus ) animated run had to be last night with the screening/talk with NED THORNE. Of course, not to be outdone by the evil AMAZON, er, ACME corporation, we officially wrapped the run with the three screenings today, in celebration of Labor Day. If there is a single admirable trait that I can take from this mixed-media marvel of modern movie magic, it is this: NEVER GIVE UP. Thanks to everyone for their support of this film, currently number three last week at the Domestic National Box Office behind only THE ODYSSEY AND SPIDERMAN. Some pretty decent company. ONCE UPON A TIME IN A CINEMA. PG, 1:33. Jumping genres faster than a roadrunner in high gear, OUATIAC, is a small story with a huge Irish heart. A theatre owner is the center of the universe in Limerick, 1984. It’s a Friday night with a packed house for the latest Richard Gere film and the potential buyer of the theatre is about to make a purchase offer. And then……… it’s a heartfelt comedy-drama written and directed by David Gleeson that serves as a nostalgic love letter to the magic of independent local movie theaters. Sound familiar? LATE FAME. EP MARTIN SCORSE knows his way around a script, and this one, starring the great WILLEM DAFOE as a one-time star poet turned USPS lifer, looks at the power and peril of the celebrity limelight. Character driven, intense, gripping, moody and painfully honest, the late night 9pm screenings over the weekend were particularly apropos. Felt like 3am Hells Kitchen in the late seventies, sad sax and steam rising. THE UPRISING. As Marty above, Director JOHN GREENGRASS knows a thing or two about filming high drama. (BOURNE, FLIGHT 93 & CAPTAIN PHILLIPS). Based on the true story of the uprising that inspired the legend of Robin Hood, Andrew Garfield stars as the leader of a rebellion against the tyranny of King Richard II in a bloody battle for freedom and justice. Kick ass Robin. All for today folks. I will leave you today with what I am now calling The Eleven. They are 11 words, action words, that we are working to add into our mission statement. I think you will quickly see why. They are (and we do): DISCOVER DEVELOP SUPPORT CHAMPION NUTURE AMPLIFY INCLUDE CONNECT EDUCATE CELEBRATE EXHIBIT. Every day and in every way. Put just one of these social zingers into play and you have added to the peace, joy and harmony that should be paramount in our global community, but sadly is considered weak by those who fall under the ACME metaphorical badge. Peace out friends. Keep the faith and hang in there, the light at the end of the tunnel shines brighter than any sun. Thanks to Jackson and David for the rockin' bumpers.

Whew, that was a rough couple of days. But, we're back and ready to go with added shows and extended runs. Please check our website for details on advance ticket sales and showtimes. EVERYONE WHO PURCHASED ADVANCE TICKETS FOR ANY SHOW CANCELLED BY OUR SHUTDOWN MAY PRESENT PROOF OF PURCHASE (QR CODE, HARD COPY OR PHYSICAL TICKET) FOR ADMISSION TO ANY SHOW THIS WEEK AND NEXT. TONY. Rated R, 1:46, from A-24. Heading into it’s second week as part of our two-show stack along with CVA, there are a couple of items of note that have captured my attention; 1) This is a compelling and blatantly honest focus on the arc of AB as he learns some of life’s more important lessons - and not just those found in the fast lane back end, and 2) If you are still wondering how on-screen chemistry works, please see the how DOMINIC SESSA and ANTONIO BANDERAS compliment each other like lobster and butter. OSCAR ALERT: You will recall the closing scene from CODA that earned a Best Picture award waaaaaaay back in 2021 and the BOTH SIDES NOW closing number by EMILIA JONES. She is back as AB’s (fictitious) GF here sharing screen time with BANDERAS who might - should - get a Best Supporting nod for his role as Chef. People are already talkin’ about it. A must see. Additionally, climbing out further on the limb, both THE INVITE and now, TONY are more compelling all-around films than the most recent pair of summer blockbusters, the one about the Greek Sailor and the one about ET’s Uncle. Bigger isn’t always better and sometimes small takes all. Don’t ya know. COYOTE VS ACME. Rated PG, 1:41. Opens on 8.28, but NOW RESCHEDULED to Sunday Sept 6 @ 7, local NED THORNE, will join us on-stage for a Q&A after the screening for a under-the-hood look at how this incredible live-action animation was produced, with a emphasis on editing. Ned worked on the project as a post-production artist and I am sure he will enjoy your questions on exactly how it was done as well as, perhaps, why WB sat on it for several years prior to selling distribution rights to V10 and Ketchup Entertainment earlier this year. December of 2020 - WB announces release date of 7.21.23. April of 2023 - Filming begins with release date delayed to make room for BARBIE. November of 2023, WB shelves the release for tax write-off. March of 2025 - WB sells distribution rights to Ketchup Entertainment. July of 2025 - KE announces release at Comic Con in SD. July of 2026 - KE premieres at Comic Con August of 2026 - National release (including HLT) Sept 6, 2026 - Reschedule date for CVA with NED THORNE (@7) ONCE UPON A TIME IN A CINEMA. Set in a down-at-heel Limerick cinema in 1984, it’s a big Friday night open for a Richard Gere film. Whatever could possibly go wrong has a 50/50 chance of manifesting chaos, impacting profits and ruining the night as a major suitor makes another visit in the hope of becoming landlord. I do have a soft spot for movies about movies, especially those about movie theaters and their neurotic owner/operators. LATE FAME. Is a deliciously acidic examination of the thin line between creative aspiration and pretentious poseurdom. Stars the great Willem Dafoe as a retired poet who returns to 1978 New York prominence as the result of a gaggle of young student fans egging him back. 92% at RT is nothing to thumb a Ginsberg nose at. STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER II. By popular demand we have added a second screening to the history of the Indipinos of Bainbridge Island on Sunday, Sept 13 at Noon. Tickets here. BAINBRIDGE ISLAND COMEDY GROUP, returns on Sat night, Sept 26 at 7. We have a 7pm Prime-Tome start this round. Tix, on-sale very soon. DANNY & THE FIGGATONES return on Oct 3. THE PLASTIC DETOX. Sponsored by Sustainable Bainbridge with a raffle from T&C, and including a pair of expert toxicologists as guest speakers. Tickets are free by RSVP here . Sunday, Sept 20 at Noon. The DANA LYONS performance, rescheduled from May 16 is on for Sat Oct 10 Jesse Kogita presents her work EVE on Sunday, Sept 11 at Noon The Charter for Compassion presents I SHALL NOT HATE on Sunday, October 25 from 11-2. RSVP here. All for today friends, should you be interested in hosting a public or private cinematic, musical, stage or political event, the number here is 206.451.4336. Again, we are putting together cast and crew for our very own movie. All I can say at this point is that it is a movie about saving a 90 year old Historic one-screen theatre. Maybe THE FULL MONTE meets ED WOOD on (near) SUNSET BOULEVARD. If only we could find such a location to shoot. If you would like to invest (without joining the Producers Guild of America) that number, again, is 206.451.4336. And yes, tickets will go on-sale soon. Should you be an actor, director, cinematographer, gaffer, composer, musician, caterer, editor, animator, sound designer, driver, make-up artist, set designer, painter, or eccentric philanthropist, that number again Rikki, is…..

Rated R, 1:46, from A-24. The formative years of ANTHONY BOURDAIN, as an adapted screenplay from the hit memoir KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL, starring DOMINIC SESSA (The Holdovers) and ANTONIO BANDERAS. Directed by MATT JOHNSON (NIRVANA MOVIE). I have been recommending everyone who has liked TONY (everyone) to watch THE HOLDOVERS . In December. Right now, as the summer of 2026 recedes into the past like a spent wave back into the sea, anyone who has ever worked in a restaurant, cafe, bistro, bar or chow hall will appreciate this look at a snobbish brat coming of age on Cape Cod in 1975. Deliciously Orwellian with a dash of Kerouac. And please take note of Director Johnson’s use of foreshadowing symbolism. COYOTE VS ACME. Rated PG, 1:41. Opens on 8.28, but on Sunday, Aug 30, local NED THORNE, will join us on-stage for a Q&A after the screening for a under-the-hood look at how this incredible live-action animation was produced, with a emphasis on editing.

Stars the great Willem Dafoe as a retired poet who returns to 1978 New York prominence as the result of a gaggle of young student fans egging him back. 92% at RT is nothing to thumb a Ginsberg nose at. Now that we are on the cusp of being in post Labor Day doldrums, the blockbusters in rear-view mirror, back to school, after vacation, tourists gone, normality, it might be worth looking at what we have on-tap down the line. Mostly due to a pair of ever present realities. One, as we segue into NPO status it is a time of no man’s land budgetary belt-tightening, where all maintenance, repairs and emergency stop-gap, whatever it takes triage, keeps the lights on and the movies playin. There is no staff to ask for a little extra effort and no surplus slush funds screaming for use. Our cash flow is you, one ticket and one bag of popcorn at a time. Making two, or course, the power of advance ticket sales. With that bit of bell-weather melodrama, here are a few of the special events currently lined up and (almost) ready to roll: STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER II. By popular demand we have added a second screening to the history of the Indipinos of Bainbridge Island on Sunday, Sept 13 at Noon. Tickets here . BAINBRIDGE ISLAND COMEDY GROUP, returns on Sat night, Sept 26 at 7. We have a 7pm Prime-Tome start this round. Tix, on-sale very soon. DANNY & THE FIGGATONES return on Oct 3. THE PLASTIC DETOX.

All that, for starters. If you would like to host a party, sponsor an event, curate a film, or, with this news being introduced for the first time, get involved with the making of our movie (you read that right - OUR film), call me day or night 24/7 at 206.451.4336. Especially if you are an Executive Producer type looking to make your mark upon the cultural sophistication of the arts and humanities community film scene on our loverly polished rock in the South Salish Sea. You can even call me if you need to vent about movies, movie theaters closing, scores, soundtracks, music, musicians or guitars, drums and the noises they produce. Please be advised that I prefer these cultural exchanges over those related to the present day Nazi criminals currently, and however temporarily, in power. But I will if pressed. Guaranteed.

I am becoming a fan of open-caption formatting. Not so much because I am now accustomed to ‘watching’ every Tuesday as part of our Senior Tuesday promotion, but due more to its value. Even with Christopher Nolan’s propensity to jack the volume, a cachaphonic mashup of atmospherics, effects, dialogue and score, to often painful levels, there remain key passages where I wonder, sometimes aloud, what did he/she say? And let’s face the facts, in former lifetimes toiling as a heavy construction carpenter (on the largest concrete structure attempted by man), a rock ’n roll drummer (Dead covers) and a Department of Defense remote & isolated G-10 (Indian Ocean base on 9.11), my hearing currently operates at a less-than-perfect level of tinnitus overdrive, a muted and muddy soundscape, most often causing my first repose to ask, ‘what?’ I should be wearing aids, but decent ones cost more than my last truck. All leading to the present day reality that, subtitles help. They actually dialed up my appreciation of THE ODYSSEY about 88 decibels as I became acutely aware of the sub-story behind all the action and adventure in CN’s epic narrative retelling of Homer’s mythical morality play. Bang the staff upon the floor, and show the words forevermore, tell me of the man of many wiles, the man who wandered paths of exile. But, Dear Mr Nolan, had I of been on your film crew and saw the opacity with which you chose to display the closing credits, my despair would have been of tragic proportions. GHOST IN THE MACHINE. BIHS class of 2003, VALERIE VEATCH, now living in London, will be back to intro and host a Q&A tonight, August 17 @ 7, after the screening of her latest doc on the dangers of AI, THE GHOST IN THE MACHINE. Val and I sat down for a chat at the Baby Grand last week, talking through an hour to produce this podcast gem, listen here. TONIGHT @ 7, walk-ups always welcome. TONY. Rated R, 1:46, from A-24. The formative years of ANTHONY BOURDAIN, as an adapted screenplay from the hit memoir KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL, starring DOMINIC SESSA (The Holdovers) and ANTONIO BANDERAS. Getting solid, if not superlative, directed by MATT JOHNSON (NIRVANA MOVIE). COYOTE VS ACME. Rated PG, 1:41. Opens on 8.28, but on Sunday, Aug 30, local NED THORNE, will join us on-stage for a Q&A after the screening for a under-the-hood look at how this incredible live-action animation was produced, with a emphasis on editing. Ned worked on the project as a post-production artist and I am sure he will enjoy your questions on exactly how it was done as well as, perhaps, why WB sat on it for several years prior to selling distribution rights to V10 and Ketchup Entertainment earlier this year. Ned will be here on Aug 30 @ 7, to tell of his work on the film. Tix on-sale aqui . It was another wild weekend with special events dominating the stage, screen and marquee. Big HLT thanks to filmmakers, artists, authors, musicians and our participating community who came out for inspiration, entertainment and the sharing of the performative community experience. We witnessed Island author JOHN PERKINS and his film crew present his doc, Seattle filmmaker COLTON VAN TIL presented his latest film, MELTDOWN, JULIA BENZINGER orchestrated a mash-up of artistry and issues with THE PRICE OF PLACE, and tonight is VALERIE VEATCH’s cautionary documentary tale, GHOST IN THE MACHINE. I cannot begin to tell you how important these storytellers are to our community, without this robust and fearless content, we would be like any other one-screen theater in America, living -and mostly dying - on whatever juvenile slop Hollywood (MCU and Disney) sends our way under obsolete terms and untenable conditions. In other words, YOU make it happen. Need to chat? Have an idea? Want to host a screening, throw a party or book your Band? The number is 206.451.4336. Let’ make it happen.
