All three Lord of the Rings films on the big screen — today through Monday only. One does not simply walk into Mordor, but walking into the Grand is easy. We recommend it.

The poet for people who love poetry, and the poet for people who don't.

Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World opens Friday at the Grand. A documentary portrait of America's unlikely contemporary mystic, Pulitzer Prize winner, lover of dogs and long walks, openly q***r and intensely private, who stalked the ponds and forests of Cape Cod for nearly fifty years. With interviews from John Waters, and recitations by Stephen Colbert, Steve Buscemi, Lucy Dacus, and Oprah Winfrey.

Her poetry about the natural world feels made for the Pacific Northwest. Come see why she matters so much to so many people.

Carla Simón's autobiographical Cannes-nominated drama, with a glorious debut performance from Llúcia Garcia. A lyrical, moving coming-of-age film about how family stories shape who we become.
