HELD OVER

THE DRAMA button to buy tickets
THE DRAMA
Rated R (1h 45m)
Romance

button to watch trailer
A happily engaged couple is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. Starring Zendaya, Robert Pattinson. Directed by Kristoffer Borgli. 

Caitlin Stow's review of THE DRAMA:


I like to watch movies alone. Many of you will have seen me slip into a movie after my shift is over, finding a solitary seat in the front row, and then exiting right as the credits roll to develop an opinion without the chatter of the crowd. This is a ritual I enjoy. But The Drama is a rare movie that I wish I had seen with a group of thoughtful people. I wish I could have turned to a friend to ask whether they thought Charlie was overreacting, or how they felt about the comparison between Rachel's and Emma's past, or whether they found the non-linear editing to be narratively clarifying or emotionally manipulative.

This is a movie about morality, but unlike many movies today about right and wrong, it isn't here to tell you what to think, it wants you to sit with the concept of morality itself. Although on the surface it's anxious and manic and, well, dramatic, underneath the plot there's a plodding, calm, and contemplative tempo, a breezy observation of how we look at Good and Bad people and what we consider redeemable. This is the rare movie that is watchable on a surface level and also stimulates on a philosophical level. Bring a friend, and plan dinner for after the movie; you will have so much to discuss.
