Starring David Oyelowo as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the film dramatizes King\u2019s marches from Selma, Alabama to the state capital of Montgomery in support of voting rights for black Americans. It\u2019s an engaging portrait of a dark and ugly time in U.S. history. Also, every good actor ever is in it: Tessa Thompson and Tim Roth to Lakeith Stanfield and Martin Sheen.

Dancy and Hurt play a teacher and a priest, respectively, who are caught up in the middle of a barbaric ethnic cleansing that claimed the lives of over one million Rwandans. Unlike the Oscar-winning <em>Hotel Rwanda <\/em>(which was shot in South Africa), <em>Beyond the Gates<\/em> was actually filmed on location.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Beyond The Gates (2005) - Trailer\" width=\"689\" height=\"388\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QpsJEELgwq0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 40px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span>\n<h3>Beach Bunny<\/h3>\n<p><em>Thursday, Dec. 5, High Noon Saloon (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.high-noon.com\/event\/9802315\/beach-bunny\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">info<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Like The Beach Boys or early Weezer, Beach Bunny has a knack for making sun-kissed powerpop. But unlike either of those Golden Staters, this quartet hails from Chicago. Still, their sugary hooks and melodies sound radio-ready \u2014 even if they\u2019ve yet to put out a full album. They most recently released an EP called <em>Prom Queen<\/em>, but mark your calendars: Beach Bunny\u2019s debut LP <em>Honeymoon<\/em> will arrive in February.

She looks a bit like Gwen Stefani, sounds a little like Norah Jones, and can wail on the guitar like Muddy Waters. The 30-year-old Missouri native utilizes blues\u2019 classic trappings while tweaking the sound to make it fit the modern music landscape. But with Fish, the real draw here is her talent on the six-string. There are few people with the ability to shred with this kind of effortlessness; it\u2019s the musical equivalent of speaking in tongues.

Arguably the greatest filmmaker in American history, Kubrick was a visionary of the highest order. And few of his films exemplify that like <em>Barry Lyndon<\/em>, a technically impressive if uneven period piece. Adapted from a novel by William Makepeace Thackeray, the film stars Ryan O\u2019Neal as a young Irishman who climbs his way to the British aristocracy.

The band formed here and remain one of our greatest contributions to recent indie rock. Their gentle psychedelia is a perfect foil for Emily Massey\u2019s voice, which packs tons of emotion into its quietness. It\u2019s like Tame Impala\u2019s <em>Lonerism<\/em> reimagined by Phoebe Bridgers. Which is to say: awesome.

The stop-motion classic is the definitive goth Christmas movie, exploring the secular meaning of Christmas through characters that live in a town dedicated to Halloween.

The Japanese director helmed classics like <em>Yojimbo<\/em> and <em>Ran<\/em>, but his masterpiece is <em>Seven Samurai<\/em>. A three-plus-hour epic, the 1954 film is about a farming village that hires seven ronin (masterless samurai) to protect their crops from bandits. <em>Seven Samurai <\/em>is considered one of the greatest films ever made and is absolutely essential viewing for anyone who considers themselves a cinephile.
