SPECIAL ONE TIME SCREENING • Wednesday June 17 @ 7:00 PM {Tickets in Bio} • This soaring music documentary traces Gregg Allman’s journey from a childhood scarred by his father’s murder to the heights of Southern rock and late-life sobriety, exploring grief, addiction, love, and the racially charged American South through his transcendent music. Tender and unsparing, featuring electrifying performances and archival recordings, the film reveals how Gregg’s unforgettable blend of rock, country and blues mirrored the music and struggles of his soul.

COMING SOON ~ Stop! That! Train! ~ June 12

STOP! THAT! TRAIN! follows best friends Tess (Ginger Minj) and DeeDee (Jujubee), train stewardesses who trade their dreary shifts on the Stank Rail for the glitzy Glamazonian Express. When a catastrophic “Stormaganza” threatens to derail the high-speed train and crash it into Los Angeles, the duo in coach must join forces with the snobby first class attendants (Symone, Brooke Lynn Hytes, Marcia Marcia Marcia) and President Gagwell (RuPaul) to save the day in this wild ride of camp and comedy.

Frederick Wiseman’s influence on and importance within the world of documentary filmmaking cannot be overstated. That said, he hated the term “documentary”. He preferred to call his films “nonfictions”. Critics often describe his films as “direct cinema” or “cinema vérité”, but Wiseman himself would say his films are “highly constructed, ‘dramatic, narrative films’ built from observational material.”

NEW RELEASE NOW PLAYING ~ Power Ballad ~ (John Carney, 2026, 98min, Ireland/United States, R)

When Rick (Paul Rudd), a past-his-prime wedding singer, meets fading boy-band star Danny (Nick Jonas) during a gig, the two bond over music and a late-night jam session. But when Danny turns one of Rick’s songs into the hit that reignites his career, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves - even if it means risking everything he cares about. From writer-director John Carney (Sing Street, Once), POWER BALLAD is a feel-good story about music, self-respect, friendship, and the price of ambition. ~

I wonder if these two knew what they were doing to our heartstrings… Chelsea Classics starting Pride Month with this cultural moment. From our Q***r Cinema Anniversaries series:

~ MY PRIVATE IDAHO ~

SUNDAY, 6/7 @ 4:30PM
+
THURSDAY, 6/11 @ 7PM

River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves star in this haunting tale from Gus Van Sant about two young street hustlers: Mike Waters, a sensitive narcoleptic who dreams of the mother who abandoned him, and Scott Favor, the wayward son of the mayor of Portland and the object of Mike’s desire. Navigating a volatile world of junkies, thieves, and johns, Mike takes Scott on a quest along the grungy streets and open highways of the Pacific Northwest, in search of an elusive place called home. Visually dazzling and thematically groundbreaking, My Own Private Idaho is a deeply moving look at unrequited love and life on society’s margins.
