    Do the Right Thing (1989)

    As someone who only recently saw Spike Lee’s first studio film, I’m here to say: GO SEE THIS MOVIE. It’s essential American viewing, a slice-of-Brooklyn-life with a stacked cast trying to get by on the hottest day of the year. Join Lee himself, Giancarlo Esposito, John Turturro, and Martin Lawrence and Rosie Perez in their film debuts in vignettes that prove the more things change, the more they stay the same. Bonus Danny Aiello for you Moonstruck heads out there. Watch him earn that Oscar nomination, and cry against fate that Lee didn’t get the same. – Cat McCarrey

      Killer Kaya (album release), Los Alcos, Temple of Love

      Austin-via-Santa Barbara ensemble Killer Kaya describes their music as “foggy prog with a psychedelic rim.” Indeed, this trippy quintet recalls the sounds of Sixties psychedelia and Seventies funk: Apoorva Chiplunkar’s got the witchy vocals of Grace Slick, and guitarists Zach Rengert and Eric Engel anchor 2017 instrumental track “29 Lives” with the rhythmic strums of Nile Rodgers. The band debuts new LP Live at Wall of Fog alongside Latin fusion act Los Alcos and “Southern goth” post-punks Temple of Love, opening the night with a sonic curveball. – Carys Anderson

      Sherlock Holmes: Mare of the Night (2024)

      While his partner John Watson enters the new year as a sexy Morris Chestnut type doctor on CBS, this upcoming Texan-led production imagines a less glamorous journey for ol’ detective Sherlock Holmes. Taking particular dark details from Arthur Cohen Doyle’s original short fictions – re: drugs and drinking – the CJ Goodwyn-directed, -written, and -starring feature “pays homage to the gritty, human vulnerabilities often glossed over in traditional adaptations.” The locally made movie screens twice this Tuesday, once at 7 and a half-hour later, with a cast & crew meet-up as well as post-screening Q&A planned. – James Scott

      SXSW EDU

      If you’re looking to ease into the forward-thinking schmoozefest that is SXSW, the citywide conference’s little sibling focuses on innovation in the education space. (Yeah, I said “space.” I know the lingo.) Panel discussions, breakout sessions, films, keynotes, and more help you get inspired for another year of teaching. Until we can implant book learnin’ directly into the brain (is that a thing yet?), let’s find out the best ways to make sure future generations are no dummies. – James Renovitch

      Titane (2021)

      French horror rules the roost lately, with Coralie Fargeat’s big-budget B picture The Substance not only earning its star Demi Moore a Best Actress nom but the film itself landing among the Best Picture hopefuls. Before the Academy deemed the franco freak feature award material, though, there was Julia Ducournau’s revv’d up riot. Previously a purveyor of the organic scare – see: vicious veterinary school shocker Raw – Ducournau took the wheel on this tale of vehicular lust. As much as the car sex scene clouds the first-time viewer’s mind, what truly turns this movie from automobile-erotic boondoggle to certified cinema-freak classic is its second-act turn to a stolen-identity family drama. – James Scott
