The unexpected, irreverent, and heartfelt new documentary André Is An Idiot is coming to The Frida Cinema for a limited engagement the last weekend of March!

When André Ricciardi, a self-proclaimed “idiot” for skipping the colonoscopy that could have saved him, learns he is dying, he turns his final chapter into an experiment in radical honesty, humor, and curiosity. A lifelong iconoclast and ad-industry provocateur, André has never done anything the conventional way, and confronting mortality proves no different: he picks up a camera, cracks a joke, and begins to ask the biggest questions of his life with disarming candor.

Winner of both the Audience Award and the Jonathan Oppenheim Editing Award in the U.S. Documentary category at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, Andre Is An Idiot is a wildly life-affirming film about death and about the strange clarity that arrives when time suddenly becomes finite.

Pillion, the highly-anticipated new movie from filmmaker Harry Lighton, starring Alexander Skasgard and Harry Melling, is coming to The Frida Cinema!

The story follows Colin, a timid gay man, is swept off his feet when Ray, an enigmatic and impossibly handsome biker, takes him on as his submissive in a crazy and erotic BDSM-focused relationship.

The film premiered in the Un Certain Regard section at the Cannes Film Festival and won accolades for its screenplay and overall standout reception. It also earned multiple British Independent Film Awards, including Best British Independent Film.

A Fantasy, A Musical, A Place Where Dreams Come True.

Cinematic Void is back at The Frida Cinema for their Musical March series, and they’ve chosen to highlight Robert Greenwald’s critical-flop-turned-cult-classic Xanadu! And make sure to get there on time as actor and fitness instructor Angie Shriner will be doing a special introduction before the screening!

Xanadu is infamous for being one of Hollywood’s most beloved “so-bad-it’s-good” musicals. Upon release, it was widely panned by critics for its thin story, over-the-top performances, and bizarre combination of roller disco, Greek mythology, and Olivia Newton-John–led pop numbers. Yet its reputation has softened over time. Audiences now celebrate it as a campy, glitter-drenched delight, and the soundtrack, particularly hits from Electric Light Orchestra, remains on repeat in The Frida’s lobby.

And did we mention…Gene Kelly? Need we say more? Grab your friends and get ready to have some fun at the theater!

This event is co-presented by both Cinematic Void and The American Cinematheque!

Join us as we present some screenings of the 1999 cult classic But I’m A Cheerleader, the final film in our Tribute To Bud Court series.

Megan is an all-American girl. A cheerleader. She has a boyfriend. But Megan doesn’t like kissing her boyfriend very much. And she’s pretty touchy with her cheerleader friends. Her conservative parents worry that she must be a lesbian and send her off to “sexual redirection” school, where she must, with other lesbians and gays learn how to be straight.

Bring your friends, wear pink if you dare, and re-live (or discover) a certified Frida Cinema Favorite the way it deserves to be experienced: loudly and proudly, in a movie theater!

Beloved character actor Bud Cort built a career out of making the unusual unforgettable. From his odd bird performance in Brewster McCloud to his tender, offbeat turn in Harold And Maude, he gave us a lifetime of bringing humanity to the outsiders he inhabited. Join us in March 2026 as we pay tribute to his work.
