Cinemapolis - Ithaca's Member Supported Independent Movie Theater

Greetings, Cinemapolitans,

Our sixth week of virtual cinema offerings kicks off with FOUR great new titles this Friday.

All these new movies arriving does mean that we need to make some room, however. If you haven't yet checked out The Cordillera of Dreams, Deerskin, and Slay the Dragon hop to it! All three are only available through the end of the day tomorrow, May 14th.

The Southern Tier region has been given the green light to enter phase one of Governor Cuomo's plan to re-open the state. Cinemas are part of phase four, and we're hard at work developing a plan to make sure we can return to a movie-going experience that is as safe as possible sometime later this summer.

In the meantime, the full listing of all current and upcoming virtual films can be found on our Virtual Cinema page.

NEW VIRTUAL CINEMA TITLES

VIRTUAL CINEMA:
CAPITAL IN THE 21ST CENTURY

“An almost overwhelming alarm bell, a call to action and a fact, chart, animated illustration-and-quote-stuffed history of “how we got here” in the first place.”

-Roger Moore, Movie Nation

Based on the international bestseller by rock-star economist Thomas Piketty, this captivating documentary is an eye-opening journey through wealth and power, a film that breaks the popular assumption that the accumulation of capital runs hand in hand with social progress, and shines a new light on today’s growing inequalities.

Director: Justin Pemberton

Writers: Thomas Piketty (based on the book by), Matthew Metcalfe (adapted by)

Stars: Gillian Tett, Ian Bremmer, Kate Williams

VIRTUAL CINEMA:
A GOOD WOMAN IS HARD TO FIND

"a lean, mean, painfully real crime thriller that will make you cheer for Sarah and her ability to overcome the worst of humanity and come out the other end kicking all sorts of ass.”

-Rafael Motamayor, SlashFilm

A recently widowed young mother will go to any lengths to protect her children as she seeks the truth behind her husband’s murder.

Director: Abner Pastoll

Writer: Ronan Blaney

Stars: Sarah Bolger, Edward Hogg, Andrew Simpson

Presented in collaboration with Ithaca Fantastik

SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE

"ENTERTAINING slow-burn Parisian romance”

-Cath Clarke, The Guardian

For Rémy, a young Parisian with an unskilled job. Mélanie, a young she-Parisian who works in scientific research. Two depressive moods living in close proximity but strange to each other. Shall the two ever meet?

Director: Cédric Klapisch

Writers: Santiago Amigorena, Cédric Klapisch

Stars: François Civil, Ana Girardot, Camille Cottin

Subtitled in English

VIRTUAL CINEMA:

UP FROM THE STREETS

"Through Mr. Murphy’s delightful film structure and employing the powerful of the film’s music director and host, Terence Blanchard, viewers experienced, through thoughtful interviews, dotted with virtuoso performances both current and vintage, a lens of New Orleans Jazz’s, ranging from African Drums of Congo Square to present- day, traditional jazz to Hip- Hop and BOUNCE"

-E.L. Johnson, Smooth Jazz Magazine

A film looking at the culture of New Orleans thru the lens of music. Hosted by Oscar nominee and 6-time Grammy Winner Terence Blanchard, the film tells the story of how music and culture intersected to create a distinct form of expression.
