7:15
SEXY BEAST

(England, 2000. Film4 / 20th Century-Fox. 89 min.)

Screenplay by Louis Mellis and David Scinto
Produced by Paul Webster and Jeremy Thomas. Directed by Jonathan Glazer

The movie that taught the world Ben Kingsley -- the man who played Gandhi -- could scare the pants off us. Ace safecracker Gal Dove (Ray Winstone) is living the criminal's dream, retired in Spain with his ill-gotten gain and an ex-porn-star wife. Things go dreadfully wrong when his old psychotic pal Don Logan (Kingsley) turns up demanding Gal's assistance in one more job. Celebrated music video director Glazer made a striking feature debut with this stylishly nasty piece of work. Presented in 35mm


9:10
THE AURA (El aura)

(Argentina, 2005. Patagonik Film Group / IFC First Take. 134 min.)

Screenplay by Fabian Bielinsky and Pablo De Santis
Produced by Cecilia Bossi, Jose Luis Garcia Espina, et al. Directed by Fabian Bielinsky

The charismatic Ricardo Darin (Nine Queens, The Secret in Their Eyes) plays an epileptic taxidermist who amuses himself by plotting perfect crimes. On a hunting trip, he accidentally kills a man who has a set a casino robbery into motion -- then steps into the dead man's shoes to live out his fantasy. Reality concocts plot twists even his fevered imagination can't see coming. Argentine director Fabian Bielinsky made only two movies before his death, the exquisite caper Nine Queens and this masterful neo-noir, perhaps the best of the 21st century. Presented in 35mm
