THE HOLDOVERS | FOCUS FEATURES


In New England in the early 1970s, a disliked teacher at a prep school is put in charge of supervising students with nowhere to go for the Christmas holidays. In the process, Paul Hunham (Paul Giamatti) is forced to deal with a brainy but damaged troublemaker and forms an unlikely bond with the school's head cook, a woman who just lost a son in the Vietnam War.


Q&A immediately following the screening with director Alexander Payne

SOCIETY OF THE SNOW | NETFLIX


Spain’s entry in the 96th Academy Awards is a faithful retelling of the 1972 crash in the snow-covered Andes of an airplane carrying a rugby team and their family members and friends. Based on the book of the same name, the Spanish-language film (with English subtitles) gives voice to those who perished as well as those who survived.

actor Enzo Vogrincic, composer Michael Giacchino, and actual survivor Roberto Canessa


December 5

AMERICAN FICTION | ORION PICTURES/ AMAZON MGM STUDIOS


In this comedy, a novelist gets fed up with the establishment profiting from entertainment that relies on outrageous ethnic stereotypes. To prove his point, Thelonious Ellison (Jeffrey Wright) uses a pen name to write an outlandish "Black" book of his own, a book that propels him to the madness he claims to disdain. Also stars Skyler Wright, John Ales, Issa Rae, Tracee Ellis Ross, Leslie Uggams and Sterling K. Brown.


Q&A immediately following screening with director/writer Cord Jefferson, and actors Jeffrey Wright, Sterling K. Brown, Tracee Ellis Ross, John Ortiz, and Erika Alexander

Stars Fantasia Barrino in her film debut, with Taraji P. Henson, Danielle Brooks, Colman Domingo, Corey Hawkins, H.E.R., Halle Bailey, and Phylicia Pearl Mpasi.
