  Bay of Angels (1963)

  Close your eyes to conjure a Jacques Demy film and you probably see color, like the Technicolor wows of The Umbrellas of Cherbourg and The Young Girls of Rochefort. But the French film legend started out in black & white – first Lola in 1961, then 1963’s Bay of Angels, starring Jeanne Moreau as a peroxide-blond gambling addict working the casinos in Nice. The screening kicks off a new AFS Essential Cinema summer series dubbed Club Med; other Mediterranean-set features include Taylor & Burton curiosity Boom!, Lina Wertmüller’s original Swept Away, and Godard’s Contempt. Bonnes vacances! – Kimberley Jones

  Polite Society & The Assassin

  The Austin Asian American Film Festival presents this double feature of only very tangentially related films about, well, ladies kicking ass. They’re both recommended, if a study in tonal contrasts: We Are Lady Parts creator Nida Manzoor helmed 2023 action-comedy Polite Society, about a British-Pakistani teen and wannabe movie stunt performer who must save her sister from an extremely bad marriage match, while Hou Hsiao-Hsien’s 2015 wuxia epic – wherein the titular assassin’s resolve is tested when she’s sent to kill her childhood sweetheart – is deadly serious, and a stunning piece of artistry. – Kimberley Jones
