Bozeman Film Society continues its latest season with dark horror comedy Together on Friday, September 5th. The event will be held at Downtown Bozeman’s Ellen Theatre at 7:30pm.
Years into their relationship, Tim and Millie (Dave Franco and Alison Brie) find themselves at a crossroads as they move to the country, abandoning all that is familiar in their lives except each other. With tensions already flaring, a nightmarish encounter with a mysterious, unnatural force threatens to corrupt their lives, their love and their flesh. Written and directed by Michael Shanks, the film is Rated R with a runtime of 102 minutes.
“That the two stars are married in real life is part of the movie’s genius and certainly key to why Together is as outrageously funny as it is scary.” – The Washington Post
Following on Saturday, Sept. 13th, catch an Ellen screening of indie standout Eddington. The film begins at 7:30pm.
In May of 2020, a standoff between a small-town sheriff (Joaquin Phoenix) and mayor (Pedro Pascal) sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico. Backed by an unanimously phenomenal cast, Eddington captures pandemic-era trauma with mixed results, delivering an unmistakably Ari Aster film: idiosyncratic, enigmatic, and polarizing.
Also starring Emma Stone, Austin Butler and Luke Grimes. Rated R, the film runs 144 minutes.
And late this month, enjoy music documentary It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley at the Ellen. The film screens on Wednesday, Sept. 24th, at 7:30pm.
Oscar-nominated filmmaker Amy Berg’s moving documentary covers the life Jeff Buckley, the rising young star with an otherworldly voice and boundary-pushing artistry, who left the ’90s music world reeling when he died suddenly, at age 30, after the release of his critically acclaimed debut album Grace.
Told through never-before-seen footage from Buckley’s archives and intimate accounts from his mother, Mary Guibert, former partners Rebecca Moore and Joan Wasser, former bandmates, and luminaries like Ben Harper and Aimee Mann, It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley illuminates one of modern music’s most influential and enigmatic figures. Not Rated, the film runs 108 minutes.
“Most artist documentaries attempt but rarely get to a true and palpable essence of their subjects, but it’s this sense of his earnestly tender nature, pieced together from loved ones and old archive interviews of Buckley, that leaves an impression.” – New York Times
Together, Eddington and Jeff Buckley screen on Sept. 5th, 13th and 24th, respectively, at the Ellen. Wine, beer and concessions will be available prior to the screenings. Find ticketing access and learn more about the current season at www.bozemanfilmsociety.org – and Keep ‘Em Flickering! •
