Cinema Classics – “Midnight Cowboy”
Convinced of his irresistible appeal to women, Texas dishwasher Joe Buck (Jon Voight) quits his job and heads for New York City, thinking he’ll latch on to some rich dowager. New York, however, is not as hospitable as he imagined, and Joe soon finds himself living in an abandoned building with a Dickensian layabout named Enrico “Ratso” Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman). The two form a rough alliance, and together they kick-start Joe’s hustling career just as Ratso’s health begins to deteriorate. Incredibly controversial upon its release, it was rated X and the filmmakers refused to make edits to change its rating – it went on to win Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Writing (by Waldo Salt). Not as shocking today but still as poetic and powerful.
Also see the new documentary about the film and its times, playing at The Beverly: Desperate Souls, Dark City and the Legend of Midnight Cowboy.

New Titles Make a Run at The Beverly Theater
The movie that started it all when it was screened during the grand opening of The Beverly Theater, “Past Lives” is a Korean romance film created by writer-director Celine Song, starring Greta Lee and Teo Yoo. Widely lauded as one of the best films of the year, the indie film is produced by Killer Films and A24 Films and centers on Nora and Hae Sung, two deeply connected childhood friends, who are wrested apart after Nora’s family emigrated from South Korea. Two decades later, they are reunited in New York for one fateful week as they confront notions of destiny, love, and the choices that make a life.
July 14-20 “Past Lives”
Directed by Vadim Perelman, “Persian Lessons” is set in occupied France, 1942. Gilles (Nahuel Pérez Biscayart) is arrested by SS soldiers alongside other Jews and sent to a camp in Germany. En route to the camp, he narrowly avoids sudden execution by swearing to the guards that he is not Jewish, but Persian. This lie temporarily saves him, as one of the soldiers’ superior officers is “looking for a Persian,” and has promised additional rations to the soldier who delivers.
July 21-24 “Persian Lessons”
