 In the early 00's an exciting new group of filmmakers arrived from Mexico that harnessed the unpredictability of genre with elements of surrealism and gritty neo-noir. AMORES PERROS showed up in the cool rental stores around the country and quickly announced the new voice of ALEJANDRO IÑÀRRITU. The career since has continued the promise set forward by this smashing feature debut, shown here on a few 4K restoration!  This week we do a special double feature booking of a couple SPECTREVISION films including a new doc WELCOME SPACE BROTHERS about the VERY bizarre and fantastic movie making world of UNARIUS and URIEL. There is no way to easily describe the fascinating beauty of this film so for those who love esoteric culture this is HIGHLY recommended and is followed by a screening of MANDY and a BTS show to boot! That's a-lotta entertainment! It's with a heavy heart we show PERSEPOLIS this week in honor of the unfortunate passing of director MARJANE SATRAPI, honored with a 35MM PRINT of the awarded film. Plenty more below! See you soon--- JR
