PRETTY IN PINK

The beloved classic written and produced by John Hughes and starring Molly Ringwald comes to Cinespia this holiday weekend.

Andie is from the wrong side of the tracks, Blane is a handsome and rich boy who asks her out. Can they find love amidst so many differences? And what about Duckie? Packed with 80s fashion, colorful characters and genuine teen angst, Pretty in Pink is perhaps the best of the trilogy masterpieces Hughes began with Sixteen Candles and The Breakfast Club.

Dress up for our 80s Prom Photobooth with DJs Soko and Allie Teilz spinning before and after the screening.

The Matrix

The Matrix is the ultimate psychedelic, balletic, hyperkinetic masterpiece of 90s science fiction. The Wachowskis became instant cinema legends with this startling depiction of a world resembling our own with a secret… If you haven’t experienced The Matrix on the big screen, it’s time to jack in and take the red pill. One of the most satisfying action movies ever made… Enter The Matrix!

ROSEMARY’S BABY

Our Last Screening of the summer season!
Polanski’s haunting masterpiece lies at the intersection of the art film and the horror movie. Rosemary’s Baby is at once supremely intelligent and totally scary. Steeped in dream-like montages, colorful characters and pitch perfect paranoia, it is without a doubt one of the greatest horror films ever made. A young couple moves into a spooky building with an infamous past. Is a coven of witches after Rosemary’s unborn child, or is it madness? Mia Farrow’s performance is superb: she is at once vulnerable and resolute as she fends off a terrifying evil. Ruth Gordon won an Oscar for her role.

DJ Mahssa (Mt Analog, Finders/keepers) spins before and after the movie.

Purple Rain

Celebrating its 30th Anniversary, the film debut of the Purple One still has the power to awe. His searing concert performances, replete with stage humping, lacy outfits and prolific guitar shredding are undeniable. His idiosyncratic music drips with both virtuosity and eroticism. The movie has a plot, too. As Prince struggles for success and the amorous attentions of the ravishing Appollonia, we get a fun glimpse into the 80s Minneapolis scene that Prince single-handedly defined… But it is the music that has made Purple Rain a powerful classic.

DJ Questlove spins records (and more) before and after the film.

PULP: The Film

JARVIS COCKER in person!

“Moving, funny, sweet, eccentric — Two people who I spoke with were moved to tears. How many rock docs can you say that about?” — Richard Metzger, Dangerous Minds

Pulp, best known for their deliriously infectious anthem “Common People”, are one of the most quintessential Britpop bands. Director Florian Habicht teams up with highly charismatic Pulp frontman – Jarvis Cocker – to produce both a concert film of the band’s 2012 farewell Sheffield show, and a “family album” of hometown locals: the Common People. The show becomes an irresistible party, a celebration of hometown heroes.

Join us for this special evening with the director and Jarvis Cocker in conversation. Presented with FYF, Cinefamily, DKTR and Ace Hotel.
