Subtle layering lends color to this otherwise (literally) colorless film, which makes Patricia Kim '14 question the nature of experience. Patience (After Sebald), based on the  genre-defying novel The Rings of Saturn, plays at Cornell Cinema this Thursday.

Although best-known for his roles in Lethal Weapon and The Color Purple, Danny Glover's most crucial role possibly lies off stage — as a veteran activist of myriad causes. Natalia Fallas '14 attended the discussion and lecture Glover helmed on Tuesday, and found the iconic actor simply remarkable. 

Sam Green, an Academy Award-nominated documentary filmmaker, will present his newest “live documentary,” The Love Song of R. Buckminster Fuller, at Cornell Cinema Saturday night alongside rock band Yo La Tengo. The Sun spoke over the phone with Green about the “live documentary” experience, journalism’s decline, The Weather Underground’s Bill Ayers and the magic of Cornell Cinema.

Mike Nichols' 1960s landmark, The Graduate, is screening this weekend at Cornell Cinema. Henry Staley '16 digs into his favorite film to uncover the themes of generational clash and intellectual liberation that still resonate with audiences today.

Cosmopolis is pretentious and convoluted, but appropriately so. By mirroring our dangerous quest for speed, connection and perfection, the expressively-directed film leaves us wondering how human we really are. Arts & Entertainment editor Zachary Zahos '15 goes on the road with a proligate young billionaire, played by Robert Pattinson (who isn't exactly human in this show, either). 

Teresa Kim '15 is spellbound as the French filmmaker Georges Méliès reprise his magic at Cornell Cinema's Magical Méliès Evening last Thursday. 

Franco-American love is in the air again for Julie Delpy. She adeptly treads the fine line between absurdist satire and complete farce in 2 Days in New York. Natalia Fallas '14 is won over by this racously funny and fiercely charming sequel. 

Meredith Joyce '14 was on the verge of a panic attack while watching the new action/thriller The Cold Light of Day. And, no, that is not a good thing.

Robot & Frank uses its furistic shenanigans as a Trojan Horse for insightful questions on time, age and friendship. Lianne Bornfeld '15 reviews the acclaimed independent film starring Frank Langella.

Branded is one long, nauseating hallucination. The film, which tries to be a metaphor for the tyranny of capitalism, fails on every possible count. Patricia Kim '14 desperately wants out of this cheerless dystopia.
