We close out our Kurt & Jodie double feature series this Saturday, July 11th, with two films about nasty people in close quarters sizing each other up.
First is Quentin Tarantino’s epic 70mm Western chamber piece, The Hateful Eight (2pm), which stars Kurt Russell and Samuel L. Jackson as bounty hunters who meet up in a snowy forest and must then hole up together in a refuge from the blizzard with a number of bad hombres.
We pair Tarantino’s 187-minute epic road show with Roman Polanski’s 80-minute adaptation of French playwright Yasmina Reza’s acclaimed stage play, Carnage in 35mm (6:15pm). In the film, two sets of parents in a tony part of Brooklyn, played by Jodie Foster and John C. Reilly and by Kate Winslet and Christoph Waltz, come together to settle a dispute. As the evening progresses, these two mature, liberal, fair-minded couples become increasingly childish, and their meeting devolves into chaos.
