![]() ![]() All artfully done, they resonate partly because we’ve all been there. So far we’ve had Anne Hathaway and Chiwetel Ejiofor in “Locked Down” and James McAvoy and Sharon Horgan in “Together” (let’s not forget “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm”), and now this moving anthology from seven directors around the world, whose pandemic vignettes shine through in varying tones. In theaters and streaming ‘The Year of the Everlasting Storm’ (2021)Ĭovid lockdown films are now a thing. For tickets and information, visit the Brattle’s website.Ĭineastes and bargain-hunters alike should know that tickets are only $7 on Tuesdays at Landmark Kendall Square Cinema, 355 Binney St., Kendall Square – prices the country hasn’t seen on average since around 2008, and that Greater Boston probably hasn’t seen for much longer. Come Friday, in conjunction with the Roxbury International Film Festival, the Brattle runs the area premiere of the Nigerian tale “Eyimofe” (“This Is My Desire”) about two strangers making a human connection: Mofe (Jude Akuwudike), an electrician dealing with the fallout of a family tragedy, and Rosa (Temiloluwa Ami-Williams), a hairdresser supporting her pregnant teenage sister. On Wednesday the Brattle screens the best of the “Star Wars” triple trilogy – and one of its darker chapters – “The Empire Strikes Back” (1980), while Thursday brings one of the weaker entries, “The Return of the Jedi” (1983), in which the furball Ewoks prove as goofy and distracting as the overly loquacious and obnoxious Jar Jar Binks did in “The Phantom Menace” (1999). The Brattle Theatre rolls on this week with its “Tales of the Muppet Diaspora” program, with “The Muppets Take Manhattan” (1984) on Sunday and “Follow That Bird” (1985) on Monday. ![]()
