Celebrate sapphic season with one of the best-programmed double features from Paramount’s Summer Classic Film Series. The Watermelon Woman, a wry, cerebral romp from pioneering Black lesbian filmmaker Cheryl Dunye, follows Dunye as an indie filmmaker on a quest to biographize a Black actress from the 1930s and Forties who made a career playing “mammy” characters. Outside of that arc, Dunye dates an insufferable white lady she meets at her video store day job; racial politics and funny hijinks abound. Next up is Irma Vep, Olivier Assayas’ ode to the magnetism of Maggie Cheung, who plays a Hong Kong action star on a melodramatic movie set. If you’re into “blasts of silent cinema, martial arts flicks, and the music of Sonic Youth and Ali Farka Touré” – or Nineties Maggie Cheung – treat yourself to a “hallucinatory swirl of postmodern cool,” as the Paramount puts it. All in all, a crazysexycool time at the mooovies. – Lina Fisher
