All in Double Features
This double feature is about desperation beyond comprehension; these aren’t films about the about the possibility of a disaster but the fruition of one.
It’s commonplace now for people to assume some massive conspiracy is going on behind the scenes. They Live and They Look Like People cover similar ground but with two very different tones.
Society supports and also confines us, so naturally this is very fertile ground for all variety of art; be it satirical, comedic, or body horror.
In this double feature, we follow a whole variety of stories about trapped women, and get to see just how universal the feeling of “where do I go from here?” really is across genders.
A double feature of two movies, both of which have recently been restored and re-released, that tackle the maddening maze of bureaucracy – Orson Welles’ The Trial and Shakhnazarov’s Zerograd.
Jenna double features two adaptations of beloved YA novels with Catherine Called Birdy and I Capture The Castle – the first about the actual 13th-century and the second about a girl in the 1930s living in a crumbling 13th century Castle.
Veronica double features two teens experimenting with broadening their horizons in two turbulent decades – Diary of a Teenage Girl and Acid Test.
For someone looking for a community of their own, music scenes become a home where the lack of one is being felt. Documentaries Poly Styrene: I Am A Cliche and Box of Rain dive into the worlds of punk and deadheads with a focus on finding a sense of belonging.
Veronica serves up an anxiety-riddled double feature for you to watch with your romantic partners with Audition (1999) and Possession (1981). Enjoy the pain!
Our latest double feature centers on the idea of movie making, performance and the blurred line between art and real life – featuring two new releases Quentin Dupieux's Keep an Eye Out and Eric Silvera & Sean Kenealy's In Action.
