"A deeply empathic picture, powerful in its attention to detail, and still capable of real hope." (Consequence) Will Poulter and Noah Centineo deliver pitch-perfect performances as brothers Cody and Jack Parsons, each navigating a court-mandated drug rehabilitation program in a pocket of rural Ohio hit hard by the opioid epidemic. UNION COUNTY opens Friday, September 4 at Moxie Cinema. Tickets on sale now - showtimes in the comments.
Poulter and Centineo blend seamlessly with a supporting cast composed predominantly of non-professional actors as they share their actual experiences, pain, and optimism as they, themselves, navigate the program. Ohio-born filmmaker Adam Meeks creates a film imbued with realism for an honest, compassionate portrait of a battle being fought across America and the solidarity that flowers on its front lines. (NR, 97 min.)

"An edge-of-your-seat true rescue story with a razor-edged social sting." (Screen Zealots) The breakout Sundance documentary HANGING BY A WIRE opens Friday, September 4 at Moxie Cinema. Tickets on sale now - showtimes in the comments.
A routine school commute turns terrifying when a cable car’s wire snaps, leaving eight passengers — including six schoolboys — dangling 900 feet above a ravine in the remote Himalayan foothills. With no margin for error and a cable that could fail at any moment, an unlikely alliance of rescuers must improvise under intense public scrutiny, racing against an invisible clock before disaster strikes live on television. (NR, 78 min.)

The Missouri Coalition for the Environment presents GRANITE RAPIDS MOON, One-Night-Only at Moxie Cinema, Sunday Sept. 6 @ 6pm. A portion of every ticket sold will be donated to the MCE.
Shot with only the equipment that a cast and crew of eight could carry on two 41-mile hikes (one in 20-degree December and the other in 95-degree June), this family-friendly romantic drama is the first narrative feature to shoot the majority of its footage inside the rim of the Grand Canyon. The movie contains no nudity, s*x, guns, violence, drugs, to***co, or strong profanity.
A happily married father of two, shaken by a message written in a birthday card for his daughter, abruptly leaves his family for a week-long trek through the Grand Canyon. As we follow his solo hike, we see his memories of an earlier trip through the Grand Canyon with a different woman. (NR, 93 min.)

Six divas of the silver screen - Sally Field, Dolly Parton, Shirley MacLaine, Daryl Hannah, Olympia Dukakis and Julia Roberts - come together as bosom buddies in this hilarious and heartwarming story of life, love and loss in a small Louisiana parish. STEEL MAGNOLIAS (1989) screens Wednesday, September 2 at 7pm - part of the Big Screen Classics series at Moxie Cinema. The Big Screen Classics series is sponsored by Hotel Vandivort.
A young beautician, newly arrived in a small Louisiana town, finds work at the local salon, where a small group of women share a close bond of friendship, and welcome her into the fold. (PG, 117 min.)

"Willem Dafoe gives a master class in acting as a forgotten poet who is rediscovered by Gen Z but can’t find the mind and heart balance to truly find himself." (Peter Travers) LATE FAME opens Friday, August 28 at Moxie Cinema. Tickets on sale now - showtimes in the comments.
This thoughtful, witty second feature from Kent Jones (DIANE), working from a sly and hugely entertaining script by Oscar-nominated screenwriter Samy Burch (MAY DECEMBER), is a wistful yet unromantic look at a lost idea of downtown New York.
"In a sense, the film, directed by Kent Jones, is like a wonderful little poem. It’s also a touching nod to the past, gracefully intertwining aspects of 'Metropolitan' and 'Dead Poets Society.'" (Wall Street Journal)
The great Willem Dafoe lends his delicate gravitas to the role of Ed Saxberger, a forgotten New York poet who works in the post office. After an eager and flattering young admirer (Edmund Donovan) appears on his doorstep, Saxberger is beckoned into a coterie of twentysomething admirers who anoint him as a rediscovered genius.
Intoxicated by the attention—and by the alluring presence of Gloria, the group’s “tragic heroine” (a sinuous, Kurt Weill–crooning Greta Lee)—Saxberger gradually reckons with the authenticity of his newfound poetic circle. (NR, 96 min.)

"TONY fondly reminds us of the man who could never shoot a successful fishing segment, went on head-pounding benders in Greece and helped teach the world that food could change lives." (New York Post)
TONY opens Friday August 28 at Moxie Cinema. Tickets on sale now - showtimes in the comments.
A 19-year-old Anthony Bourdain travels to Provincetown and stumbles into the chaotic world of a restaurant kitchen, setting off a summer that will shape the course of his life. "TONY works as both a fond tribute and a sharp coming-of-age drama." (HeyUGuys)

Set on one block of Brooklyn’s Bed-Stuy Do or Die neighborhood, at the height of summer, this 1989 masterpiece by Spike Lee confirmed him as a writer and filmmaker of peerless vision and passionate social engagement. DO THE RIGHT THING (1989) screen Wednesday, August 26 at 7pm - part of the Staff Picks series at Moxie Cinema. August's pick was made by Kelsey. Tickets on sale now. Full Staff Picks lineup below.

Over the course of a single day, the easygoing interactions of a cast of unforgettable characters—Da Mayor, Mother Sister, Mister Señor Love Daddy, Tina, Sweet Dick Willie, Buggin Out, Radio Raheem, Sal, Pino, Vito, and Lee’s Mookie among them—give way to heated confrontations as tensions rise along racial fault lines, ultimately exploding into violence. Punctuated by the anthemic refrain of Public Enemy’s “Fight the Power,” Do the Right Thing is a landmark in American cinema, as politically and emotionally charged and as relevant now as when it first hit the big screen.
(R, 120 min.)
