OCTOBER 6: GET OUT, Vanity Fair – “A Film for the Ages,” and a Best Original Screenplay Oscar and Critics Choice winner. We follow photographer Chris Washington as he visits his girlfriend’s family estate, where polite smiles give way to mounting unease and a disturbing hidden truth. It blends psychological suspense and sharp social satire into a tense, unsettling narrative. Acclaimed for its originality, performances, and commentary, it’s widely regarded as a must-watch.
November 10: Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar-winning and AFI-winning tour-de-force from Spike Lee. Based on a true story, the first Black police officer in Colorado Springs teams up with a white colleague to infiltrate the Ku Klux Klan in the 1970s. It’s a “switcheroo” where you shake your head saying, “WOW.” It blends biting humor with tense undercover drama. Acclaimed for its performances and direction, it’s engaging, thought-provoking, entertaining and impactful.
