It’s time to dance with the devil.

The 16-time Oscar-nominated epic Sinners is finally coming to The Frida Cinema! Emerging as one of the most audacious, emotionally charged visions in modern filmmaking, we’re excited to have the opportunity to screen the film for audiences during our 12th Birthday Weekend celebration.

Set in 1932 in the Mississippi Delta during the Jim Crow era, Sinners follows twin brothers Smoke and Stack (both played by Michael B. Jordan) as they return home after years away trying to leave their troubled pasts behind. With plans to open a juke joint for their community using money earned in Chicago, the celebration takes a dark turn when supernatural forces are awakened and begin to menace the town.

A towering modern classic in the making, Sinners has unheard of levels of ambition in the modern Hollywood landcape. Whether you’ve seen it already or are experiencing it for the first time, there’s no denying that the big screen is the best place to celebrate its massive success. 

It’s time to dust off those dancing shoes, because Jonathan Demme’s 1984 concert film masterpiece Stop Making Sense is back just in time for The Frida Cinema’s birthday weekend!

Stop Making Sense is an iconic concert film documenting Talking Heads at the height of their popularity, while on tour for their 1983 album “Speaking in Tongues.” The band takes the stage one by one and is joined by a cadre of guest musicians for a career-spanning, cinematic performance that features creative choreography and visuals. Featuring masterful performances by David Byrne and photography by Jordan Cronenweth (Blade Runner), Stop Making Sense is a concert experience at its most colorful and life-affirming.

Stop Making Sense will continue with regularity at The Frida Cinem as long as we keep selling it out! Don’t miss this once in a lifetime cinematic experience!

Hundreds of Beavers, one of the most entertaining and enduring independent films of the past decade, is coming to The Frida Cinema just in time for our 12th Birthday Weekend! 

Called “gonzo cinema distilled from Buster Keaton to George Miller” (LA Times), “one of the most inventive comedies in years” (RogerEbert.com), that “puts most big screen comedies to shame,” (The Daily Beast), this impossible indie has become a word-of-mouth phenomenon — selling out theaters, melting Letterboxd & Rotten Tomatoes, and putting audiences worldwide into stitches.

Equal parts silent-era stunt work, Looney Tunes energy, and pure filmmaking lunacy, this is a cult hit that’s too much dam fun to stream alone at home!

Writer/Director Mark Fischbach’s (known to so many people around the world as @markiplier) brand new science fiction horror film Iron Lung is back at The Frida for some final encores!

Set in a post-apocalyptic future where an event known as “The Quiet Rapture” caused all known stars and habitable planets in the universe to disappear, a convict is sent to search an ocean of blood discovered on a desolate moon, using a small submarine nicknamed the “Iron Lung”.
