An angelically beautiful Catherine Deneuve was launched to stardom by this dazzling musical heart-tugger from Jacques Demy. She plays an umbrella-shop owner’s delicate daughter, glowing with first love for a handsome garage mechanic, played by Nino Castelnuovo. When the boy is shipped off to fight in Algeria, the two lovers must grow up quickly. Exquisitely designed in a kaleidoscope of colors, and told entirely through the lilting songs of the great composer Michel Legrand, THE UMBRELLAS OF CHERBOURG is one of the most revered and unorthodox movie musicals of all time. - Janus Films

New 4K Restoration!

One of the most thrilling movie epics of all time, SEVEN SAMURAI tells the story of a sixteenth-century village whose desperate inhabitants hire the eponymous warriors to protect them from invading bandits. This three-hour ride from Akira Kurosawa–featuring legendary actors Toshiro Mifune and Takashi Shimura–seamlessly weaves philosophy and entertainment, delicate human emotions and relentless action, into a rich, evocative, and unforgettable tale of courage and hope.

Allan Moyle’s Times Square stars Trini Alvarado as Pammy, the quiet and sheltered daughter of a prominent politician, and Robin Johnson as Nicky, a charismatic streetwise troublemaker. In the film’s unrealistic but somehow believable urban fantasy, the girls team up, creating a home for themselves in a warehouse on the West Side piers, and pursue various wild antics together against the gritty urban backdrop of Times Square, with Tim Curry’s radio deejay Johnny LaGuardia presiding over the entire adventure. The original script had numerous scenes and plot elements that developed a sense of proto- lesbian romance; these were all significantly cut. Despite the excision of explicit lesbian content, Nicky and Pammy are decidedly not interested in boys, and the romantic tone and tension in their interactions is undeniable. Their anarchic chemistry is also underscored by one of the greatest rock and roll soundtracks of all time, featuring Patti Smith, the Pretenders, Talking Heads, the Ramones, Roxy Music and Suzi Quatro.
