The Guild Screenings Dashboard Dashboard

Welcome, Writers! It's November, and we give thanks for all the great movies this month! Put on your seatbelts, we've got 22 titles! We have the musical crime extravaganza EMILIA PERÉZ and Venom's finale, VENOM: THE LAST DANCE. We've got the picking-the-Pope intrigue of CONCLAVE and the Maria Callas biopic MARIA. You want funky and indie? Check out MEMOIR OF A SNAIL, UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE, SEPTEMBER 5 and ALL WE IMAGINE AS LIGHT. You have kids? Bring them to FLOW, MOANA 2, and the eagerly-awaited WICKED!

We also have six exciting Q&As! On Sunday, November 3, writer/director Sean Baker will speak after ANORA, his wild tale of a Brooklyn stripper and her Russian boyfriend. On Saturday, November 9, co-writer Virgil Williams & co-writer/director Malcom Washington will discuss adapting the legendary August Wilson play, THE PIANO LESSON, co-sponsored by the Committee of Black Writers. On Sunday, November 10, writer/director/star Jesse Eisenberg will be in person with A REAL PAIN, his tale of two cousins on a heritage tour through Poland. This screening is co-sponsored by the Jewish Writers Committee.

On Friday, November 15, writer Jonathan Abrams will appear with his twisty legal thriller JUROR #2. On Saturday, November 16, we'll screen the massive sequel GLADIATOR II, followed by a talk with its writer, David Scarpa. Finally, on Saturday, November 23, we'll show the very creepy HERETIC, followed by a discussion with its writer/directors, Scott Beck & Bryan Woods.

As always, ALL MOVIES ARE FREE! You can bring TWO GUESTS to all general screenings. You get THREE GUESTS at all Family Matinees. Seating is first come, first served. No RSVP needed. And parking is free – we validate!
