Dogma (1999)
The advantage of a film being lost is that you never have to decide if it’s good or not. It’s basically been 25 years since new audiences got to form an opinion about Kevin Smith’s “missing” film, buried because of a bad deal with the Weinsteins. (As Smith said, “My movie about angels is owned by the devil himself.”) Newly liberated in 4K, his wild comedy of angels, devils, Catholic angst and commercialized faith, and Alanis Morissette as God finally gets screen time. – Richard Whittaker Read a full review of Dogma.June 5 - 11 -

Shall We Dance? (1996)
Before Koji Yakusho was an enlightened toilet cleaner in Wim Wenders’ Perfect Days, he was Shohei, a depressed accountant and family man who risks it all for a new passion for ballroom dancing. Hiding his new hobby from his family and friends, Shohei nonetheless reignites his lust for life through the power of self-expression in this heartwarming comedy that is available for the first time in North America in its uncut form. An English star-vehicle remake with Richard Gere and Jennifer Lopez came out in 2004, but the original Japanese box office hit is more worth seeing in theatres for a feel-good kickoff to summer movie season. – Lina Fisher Read a full review of Shall We Dance?.June 6-8 -

I Saw the TV Glow (2024)
Early into I Saw the TV Glow, Maddy (Jack Haven) sets a boundary with new friend Owen (Justice Smith): She likes girls, not boys. “What about you, do you like girls?” she asks. He stutters. “I don’t know. I think that I like TV shows.” Thus, the two escape into The Pink Opaque, a Buffy-esque program where suburban life – and the identities they’ve yet to get a handle on – can’t hurt them. Of course, nonbinary director Jane Schoenbrun knows, you can’t run away from yourself forever. This trans allegory is disorienting, distressing, and empathetic all at once, a visceral reminder that there’s still time to become who you are. – Carys Anderson Read a full review of I Saw the TV Glow.Fri., June 6 -
