LA Premiere of New Restoration!

New Queer Cinema auteur Todd Haynes (Carol, Far From Heaven) has enjoyed a rich collaboration with actress Julianne Moore over the years, having worked together on five feature films--the first of which was 1995's iconic film Safe.

Carol, a typical upper middle-class housewife, begins to complain of vague symptoms of illness. She “doesn’t feel right,” has unexplained headaches, congestion, a dry cough, nosebleeds, vomiting, and trouble breathing. Her family doctor treats her concerns dismissively and suggests a psychiatrist. Eventually, an allergist tells her that she has Environmental Illness.

Claire Denis

1999

92 min

It's not gay but... those handsome soldiers, the beautiful cinematography, the bodies in the sun, woof. This tale of obsession and jealousy between an older sergeant and a young recruit from French master Claire Denis is a smoldering and sensual examination of men's worlds.

Foreign Legion officer Galoup recalls his once glorious life, training troops in the Gulf of Djibouti. His existence there was happy, strict and regimented, until the arrival of a promising young recruit, Sentain, plants the seeds of jealousy in Galoup's mind.
