The Hustler (65th Anniversary Screening)

With his boyish grin and laid-back good looks, Fast Eddie Felson (Paul Newman) has fleeced his share of pool-hall gamblers. Now the brash pool shark is after the king of the cue stick: Minnesota Fats (Jackie Gleason). But after losing to Fats in a grueling, 36-hour match, Eddie hits the skids. Only the intervention of a ruthless gambler, who stakes his claim to Eddie's soul, can teach this hustler the cruel art of winning. With Piper Laurie and George C. Scott.

With introduction from Melanie Friesen. Melanie presented the much-loved Cinema Salon series for 20 years at Vancity Theatre. At one time, she was the VP of Scorsese Productions for 4 years in New York, which makes her a great fit to present this double feature.

Martin Scorsese's 'The Color of Money' (40th Anniversary Restoration)

Just in time for it's 40th Anniversary, Martin Scorsese's THE COLOR OF MONEY has been given the restoration treatment - and it will be having its big screen, Canadian debut at the Park Theatre as part of a double bill alongside it's "prequel," Robert Rossen's revered 1961 sports drama THE HUSTLER, on Sunday, April 19.

Set 25 years after the events of THE HUSTLER, Paul Newman reprises his role as “Fast Eddie” Felson. Eddie still plays pool, but not for money and not with the high-stakes, dangerous kinds of players who drove him from the game. He is a liquor salesman, a successful one, judging by the long, white Cadillac he takes so much pride in. One night, he sees the talented but very green Vincent Lauria (Tom Cruise) playing pool, and the kid is so good that Eddie’s memories are stirred, and he decides to return to the game, and proposes a partnership. With Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Helen Shaver, John Turturro.

With introduction from Melanie Friesen. Melanie presented the much-loved Cinema Salon series for 20 years at Vancity Theatre. At one time, she was the VP of Scorsese Productions for 4 years in New York, which makes her a great fit to present this double feature.

"A joy to see two masters (Scorsese and Newman) at ease with their work, and one, Cruise, in the making." (Empire Magazine)

"A solidly crafted entertainment that, for the most part, strikes a successful balance between commercial necessity and personal expression." (Chicago Reader)

Stand by Me (40th Anniversary Restoration)

"I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?"

Decades after its release in 1986, Rob Reiner's STAND BY ME remains one of the most beloved film adaptations ever - and an enduring, nostalgic "end of summer" movie staple.  Based on prolific horror icon Stephen King's short story "The Body", this coming-of-age tale set in enigmatic Castle Rock, Oregon over Labor Day weekend, 1959 is a cinematic touchstone for 80s kids everywhere, and made stars out of its four young leads, River Phoenix, Wil Wheaton, Corey Feldman, and Jerry O'Connell.

After learning that a stranger has been accidentally killed near their rural homes, four Oregon boys decide to go see the body. On the way, they encounter a mean junk man and a marsh full of leeches, as they also learn more about one another and their very different home lives. While just a lark at first, the boys' adventure is colored by the personal pressures brought to bear on all of them by the adult world, and eventually evolves into a defining event in their lives. With Kiefer Sutherland, John Cusack, and Richard Dreyfuss.

"This is as fresh and moving as it was when it was first released. Superbly acted...the classic of its genre." (Empire Magazine)

"It has aged into a staple of youthful nostalgia for its deft straddling of the line between childhood and adulthood... STAND BY ME gets its staying power from its well-measured bittersweet take on the good ol’ days, resulting from the combination of Rob Reiner’s intuitive knack for seeing through a child’s eyes and the writer’s brutal awareness of what comes afterward."

Following the massive success of both the CREED and BLACK PANTHER franchises, American director Ryan Coogler is again reuniting with one of the stars of those films, Michael B. Jordan, in an entirely new vision of fear: SINNERS. One of the most critically acclaimed and talked about movies of 2025, SINNERS received numerous accolades and awards - including Best Actor (Jordan), Best Original Screenplay (Coogler), Best Original Score (Ludwig Goransson), and for Best Cinematography (Arkapaw).

Trying to leave their troubled lives behind, twin brothers (Jordan, in a dual role) return to their hometown to start again, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back. With Hailee Steinfeld, Jack O’Connell, Wunmi Mosaku, and Delroy Lindo.

"'Sinners' is a redemption movie, a revenge movie with elements of Blaxploitation, and certainly a red-blood-soaked horror movie; it’s also deeply romantic and has the rhythms and audaciousness of some of our boldest musicals." (Filmspotting)

"It’s both a wildly ambitious meditation on American history and a rip-roaring good time." (Slate)

"It is a phantasm of Black Southern delights." (New York Magazine / Vulture)

"An awe-inspiring ode to what music means to communities and cultures." (Chicago Reader)

Blue Heron

In the late 1990s, eight-year-old Sasha and her family relocate to a new home on Vancouver Island, but their fresh start is interrupted by increasingly dangerous behavior from the eldest son, Jeremy. At wit’s end, their parents are presented with a shattering choice. Award-winning director Sophy Romvari’s feature debut is a lyrical and profound testament to the things we carry with us, masterfully chronicling the haze of a languid summer and the hyaline clarity of the moments that defined it.

Long before she was making award-winning films, Ms. Romvari was popping corn, designing posters, and selling tickets in the box office of ye olde Rio Theatre.

"It’s a film that seldom comes out and tells you exactly what’s happening, but its drama is so lucid that before any real tragedy unfolds (or is even hinted at), you feel it in your bones." (Observer)

"It’s a major film, one of the best of 2025, and an announcement of the deep talent of its writer/director." (RogerEbert.com)

"It’s a film so delicately textured that it is as though you can practically reach out and touch the grass of the family’s yard. " (The Wrap)

"Heartbreaking barely begins to describe it, although the terms masterful and transcendent also apply. " (The Daily Beast)

"“Blue Heron” may be the most emotionally devastating film of the year -- and also perhaps the most comforting. " (IndieWire)
