    RIP our brilliant colleague David Ehrenstein, the most erudite and impassioned of critics, who enlarged our understanding of cinema, especially LGBTQ and avant-garde cinema, in the pages of Film Comment, Film Quarterly, the Village Voice, The Advocate and countless others. He will be deeply missed.

    (the Cop in the movie is Ray Simpson by the way - the shitty Cop dude who stole the Village People brand in 2017 is Victor Willis, after Morali died of AIDS and Belolo was ousted, leaving only him in control of the licenses and started saying it was straight and started using it to plug Trump)

    When they say "it takes a village" they're referring to M Night Shyamalan's 2004 film "The Village" and what "it's taking" is Joaquin Phoenix right to the top of the box office baby

    The irrationality is contagious, too: this lands like that movie The Village when it’s revealed they aren’t an 18th century Amish village, just a violent cult living in the woods in modern-day Pennsylvania. It’s deeply irresponsible boosterism, consciously so, to the point of inexplicability.

    YMCA originally was definitely a gay anthem. The Village People movie might surprise some of the right-wing fans who enjoy YMCA now, with a bit more "young man" than they were expecting. They can hang out with all the boys, including the showers, here: youtu.be/wuFQPuKV_jA?... #YMCA 🤸‍♂️ 💪 🚿

    The Village is the best movie made about modern fundamentalism in the past 40 years. Yes, the M Night Shyamalan one. Spoiler for the whole movie... Modern fundamentalists are people who grew up with lots of freedoms which they want their kids not to have.

And seats for four of them — "Blue Moon," "One Battle After Another," "Sinners" and "Bugonia" — are $5 during all screenings. (The screening times vary for these throughout the coming week.)
