THE FINAL OPERA OF THE SEASON @ Today

METROPOLITAN OPERA LIVE: EL ÚLTIMO SUEÑO DE FRIDA Y DIEGO -- Saturday, May 30th at 1:00 pm

American composer Gabriela Lena Frank’s first opera, a magical-realist portrait of Mexico’s painterly power couple Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, with libretto by Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Nilo Cruz. Fashioned as a reversal of the Orpheus and Euridice myth, the story depicts Frida, sung by leading mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard, leaving the underworld on the Day of the Dead and reuniting with Diego, portrayed by baritone Carlos Álvarez.

STOLEN KINGDOM opens today (Friday) at 4PM at the
Also playing Saturday and Sunday.

With a gleefully anarchistic spirit, the film unearths a series of stranger-than-fiction tales: stolen artifacts, illicit schemes, and the obsessive personalities who turned corporate fantasy into their own playground. What emerges is both hilarious and revealing—a portrait of people pushing back against carefully constructed magic with chaos, curiosity, and a touch of madness.

Read the review by Abby Remer

Joshua Bailey’s subtitle, “Bad Things Happen at the Happiest Place on Earth,” for his documentary, “Stolen Kingdom,” gives us a hint at the film’s subject. The film, playing at the M.V. Film Center starting Friday, May 29, takes us on a deep dive into the odd world of underground urban e...

LAST SHOWINGS

4:00 PM — THE CHRISTOPHERS -- Julian Sklar (Ian McKellen) was once a star of London’s 1960’s and 70’s pop art explosion, but he hasn’t painted in decades and has been broke for years. His two estranged children (James Corden, Jessica Gunning), desperate for an inheritance, hire Lori, an art restorer and former forger (Michaela Coel), to pose as a prospective assistant in order to access 8 unfinished canvases Julian has buried deep in storage. Her plan is to complete them, then return them to storage, where they are to be “discovered” upon Julian’s death.
“In a six-decade career spanning Shakespeare, Stephen King, Marvel, and Gandalf, this may be the best work of McKellen’s career. No slouch herself, Coel meets his every acting challenge and issues one of her own.” – The Boston Globe

7:30 PM — TWO WOMEN — Winner of the Special Jury Prize at Sundance, TWO WOMEN is an irrepressible comedy about two mothers who refuse to settle for stagnant lives and instead pursue the joy they need to feel alive and fulfilled. When neighbors Violette (Laurence Leboeuf) and Florence (Karine Gonthier-Hyndman) bond over the ennui of parenthood they realize that the solution to reviving their joie de vivre may be in listening to their libidos. As the two start finding s*x in unexpected places they examine the larger unfulfilled needs that brought them to their current moment and choose to pursue a life of joy over compromise.

“A frothy s*xy thoroughly hilarious comedy” --RogerEbert.com
