Mark Jenkin (Bait, Enys Men) is back with his latest mind-trip, Rose of Nevada, starring Callum Turner and George MacKay! 

A mysterious boat returns to a village 30 years after vanishing. Two men join its crew hoping for better fortune. After one voyage, they find themselves transported back in time, mistaken for the original crew.

One of the most distinctive voices in contemporary UK art cinema, Mark Jenkin has made quite the name for himself for his handmade aesthetic, and Rose of Nevada looks to be more of that strange, melancholy folk-horror hybrid that we continue to be fascinated by.

Celebrate the comedic genius of Mel Brooks as we celebrate his 100th birthday by rolling out a Cinemascope print of Blazing Saddles courtesy of our friends at See It On 16mm!

A town (where everyone seems to be named Johnson) stands in the way of the railroad. In order to grab their land, robber baron Hedley Lamarr sends his henchmen to make life in the town unbearable. After the sheriff is killed, the town demands a new sheriff from the Governor, so Hedley convinces him to send the town the first black sheriff in the west.

One of the most outrageous and relentlessly quotable comedies ever unleashed on American screens, Blazing Saddles remains both a landmark of boundary-pushing studio comedy and a fearless reminder that Brooks’ sharpest target was always bigotry itself. Featuring all-time great comedic performances from Gene Wilder, Cleavon Little, and of course…Madeline Kahn, it’s an absolutely unhinged ride from first punchline to last explosion through the studio backlot.
