A24 Films is proud to present the newest film in their 2025 slate–Sorry, Baby.

Written, directed by, and starring Eva Victor, Sorry, Baby follows Agnes, a once-promising academic whose life is frozen in the aftermath of a shattering personal betrayal—known only as “the bad thing.” Over the course of five emotionally intricate chapters, the film traces Agnes’s attempts to move forward while stuck in place, navigating the small-town routines of her adult life in New England. When her childhood friend Lydie (Naomi Ackie) returns from New York, their reunion reignites buried tensions, old comforts, and the question of whether healing is possible—or if survival is enough.

A sharply observed and darkly funny portrait of internalized grief and human connection, Sorry, Baby is both intimate and expansive, capturing the textures of time, memory, and the strange ways people grow apart, then back together.

Step into the sun-soaked streets of The Young Girls Of Rochefort, where twin sisters Delphine and Solange (played by real-life sisters Catherine Deneuve and Françoise Dorléac) dream of love and adventure beyond their small seaside town.

Delphine and Solange are two sisters living in Rochefort. Delphine is a dancing teacher and Solange composes and teaches the piano. Maxence is a poet and a painter. He is doing his military service. Simon owns a music shop, he left Paris one month ago to come back where he fell in love 10 years ago. They are looking for love, looking for each other, without being aware that their ideal partner is very close…

Directed by Jacques Demy, this effervescent musical pays homage to classic Hollywood musicals while infusing them with French flair.

The Italian coming-of-age film Diciannove is making its way to The Frida Cinema!

The highs and lows of a restless youth collide headlong into the concrete realities of adulthood when Leonardo, a teenager from Palermo leaves home for the first time. His studies land him in Siena, by way of London, where he clashes with his instructor, the curriculum, and most chaotically, with himself. Produced by Luca Guadagnino, Diciannove (nineteen), marks the feature filmmaking debut of writer-director Giovanni Tortorici, a bold, brash and bemusing filmmaking talent.

Winner of the Queer Lion Award at Venice International Film Festival in 2024, Diciannove has been celebrated all over the world and is finally coming stateside!

Director Lauren Garroni’s new thriller Sugar Baby is coming to The Frida Cinema!

An enterprising Sugar Baby is offered $30,000 to move in with her Sugar Daddy for the week, but soon discovers the sinister secrets trapped within his home.

Our annual Segerstrom at the Frida series showcases films that inspired upcoming stage adaptations at OC’s Segerstrom Center for the Arts! Join us as our 2025 series continues with 2004 tearjerker The Notebook!

Directed by Nick Cassavetes and based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook tells the decades-spanning love story of Noah (Ryan Gosling) and Allie (Rachel McAdams), two young lovers from different social worlds who fall deeply for one another during a summer in the 1940s. Their bond is tested by class divides, war, and the passage of time, but through it all, Noah remains steadfast in his devotion. Framed by an elderly man reading their story from a notebook to a woman in a nursing home, the film explores memory, endurance, and the transformative power of love. Highlighted by lush cinematography and sweeping emotion, The Notebook has become a hallmark of early 2000s romantic cinema.

A film about power, persuasion, and the impossible hunger for meaning, The Master is Paul Thomas Anderson’s haunting American odyssey—equal parts postwar character study and cosmic riddle. 

Joaquin Phoenix is Freddie Quell, a drifting, volatile Navy veteran untethered in the wake of WWII. Philip Seymour Hoffman is Lancaster Dodd, a charismatic cult leader who sees something in Freddie—something primal, dangerous, maybe divine. Their connection is…combustible.

Shot in stunning 65mm and lit like a dream slipping into a nightmare, The Master floats through smoky banquet halls, ocean liners, and desert retreats, all while unspooling big questions with no easy answers. It’s a film of gestures, glances, and eruptions—a push and pull between control and chaos.

The Toxic Avenger is back—bigger, louder, and more radioactive than ever! This 2025 reboot brings the beloved Troma antihero into the modern era with a fresh dose of outrageous gore, dark humor, and socially charged mayhem!

Now wielding a glowing mop with super-human strength, he must race against time to save his son and stop a ruthless and power-hungry tyrant bent on harnessing toxic superpowers to strengthen his polluted empire.

Expect wild practical effects, outrageous action, and a satirical edge that’s as sharp as ever.
