SUMMARY:'Lilo & Stitch' Sensory Friendly Screening
DESCRIPTION:Bring your ohana to The Lindsay for a ‘Lilo & Stitch’ experience designed for everyone!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets Here!\n\n\n\n\n\nOhana means family. And we want to ensure that our entire Lindsay ohana can watch the latest Disney family films here! \n\n\n\nThat’s why we planned a sensory friendly Lilo & Stitch screening for Saturday\, May 31\, at 9 a.m. Tickets for this showing are on sale for our discounted rate of $8.75. \n\n\n\nLilo & Stitch is Disney’s live-action remake of the studio’s 2002 animated comedy. Lilo (Maia Kealoha) is a lonely Hawaiian girl living with her frazzled older sister\, Nani (Sydney Agudong). \n\n\n\nTheir lives are turned upside down when Stitch (voiced by Chris Sanders)\, their newly adopted dog\, turns out to be an escaped alien experiment. Though Stitch was built to be an agent of chaos and destruction\, he slowly realizes that he truly belongs with his newfound ohana. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay has been proudly holding sensory friendly screenings since 2017. These screenings provide an option for families\, children and adults impacted by autism and other special needs to watch films together in a low-stress environment. \n\n\n\nWe lower the film’s volume\, keep on dim house lights\, and have a door open to restrooms and the lobby throughout the film. Trailers are eliminated to reduce the necessary “sit time.” Staffing levels are also increased to allow a personal\, unhurried cinematic experience for everyone.  \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay usually offers sensory friendly screenings of every family-friendly film we play. Recent examples include sensory friendly screenings of Moana 2\, Mufasa: The Lion King\, Paddington in Peru\, Snow White and A Minecraft Movie.

SUMMARY:'Steel Links' Public Premiere and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:The Lindsay is partnering with WQED to show a new documentary about golf’s deep roots in Pittsburgh.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets Here!\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSteel Links is an hour-long WQED documentary chronicling Pittsburgh’s industrial roots and its rise to the forefront of technology\, culture and sports—including golf. \n\n\n\nThe film will play at The Lindsay on Sunday\, June 8\, at 5 p.m. and Monday\, June 9\, at 7 p.m. The June 8 showing is sold out\, but general admission tickets for the June 9 event are on sale for $11. Both screenings are taking place ahead of the film’s WQED broadcast premiere on June 10 at 9 p.m. and before Oakmont hosts its 10th U.S. Open from June 12-15.  \n\n\n\nThroughout the film\, former Pirate Neil Walker leads viewers on this heartfelt tour of the Western Pennsylvania he knows and loves. Walker also will be present at the Theater on June 8 for a live Q&A following the screening. There will also be an in-person Q&A after the June 9 show. \n\n\n\nIn addition to Walker\, Steel Links features segments with former Steelers Coach Bill Cowher; former Steelers quarterback Charlie Batch; rapper and Pittsburgh native Wiz Khalifa; professional golfer and Greensburg native Rocco Mediate; World Golf Hall of Famer and Sewickley native/resident Carol Semple Thompson; and other local luminaries representing various facets of Pittsburgh. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Steel Links pays homage to a city of grit\, resilience and reinvention\,” says Jason Jedlinski\, WQED’s president and CEO. “It’s both a tribute to our past and a reflection of our future\, chronicling the legacy and evolution of the Oakmont Country Club\, the game of golf and Pittsburgh itself. It reminds us what makes Pittsburgh—and its people—so special.”  \n\n\n\nSteel Links was created and executive produced by veteran filmmaker Brad Turkel. He also produced It’s a Beautiful Day in Pinehurst\, a one-hour PBS documentary about that area of North Carolina’s rich cultural and golfing traditions. Turkel’s vision with Steel Links was to do the same for Pittsburgh ahead of the U.S. Open at Oakmont. \n\n\n\nWestern Pennsylvania became Turkel’s “home away from home” after frequent visits to his wife’s hometown. Through Steel Links\, Turkel was able to dive deep into Pittsburgh’s modern tech\, arts\, music and sports scenes. He even united Walker\, Batch\, Mediate and Semple Thompson for 18 holes at Verona’s Long Vue Club. \n\n\n\nIn the film\, “We hear stories sharing their individual experiences with their sports and Pittsburgh\,” Turkel says. “Steel Links is told through the eyes and voices of well-known Pittsburghers. It’s like a love letter to the Pittsburgh that was\, is and continues to transform. \n\n\n\n“We want to showcase all the wonderful towns in and around Pittsburgh\,” Turkel continues. “Premiering at The Lindsay in Sewickley kind of symbolizes everything this doc is about.”

SUMMARY:'The Piano Lesson'
DESCRIPTION:Commemorate Juneteenth with this gripping adaptation of August Wilson’s Pittsburgh-set play.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets Here\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay is partnering with the Sewickley Community Center’s Juneteenth Committee for a special presentation of The Piano Lesson in observance of Juneteenth. \n\n\n\nThis screening will take place on Thursday\, June 19\, at 7:15 p.m. General admission tickets are on sale for $11. \n\n\n\nThe Piano Lesson is a 2024 cinematic reinvention of Pittsburgh playwright August Wilson’s groundbreaking 1987 play. This supernaturally tinged tale is set in 1930s Pittsburgh and follows the brewing conflict between two siblings with vastly different ideas about what to do with an heirloom piano that physically displays their enslaved ancestors’ stories. \n\n\n\nThis take on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play is the third Wilson adaptation produced by Denzel Washington\, following 2016’s Fences and 2020’s Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. The Piano Lesson was a family affair: It stars John David Washington\, Denzel’s eldest son\, and was the feature directorial debut of Malcolm Washington\, the Oscar winner’s youngest son. \n\n\n\nThe film also stars Samuel L. Jackson\, Danielle Deadwyler\, Ray Fisher\, Michael Potts\, Corey Hawkins and Skylar Aleece Smith. The Piano Lesson currently holds a cumulative critics’ score of 88% on Rotten Tomatoes. \n\n\n\n“The Piano Lesson brings another powerful August Wilson play to the screen\,” raves The Wrap. “With performances that will resonate and a directorial debut that will not soon be forgotten\, The Piano Lesson is a lesson in love\, friendship and family.”

SUMMARY:Summer of Timeless Classics
DESCRIPTION:The Lindsay is punctuating this blockbuster season with a lineup of Timeless Classics! We’re providing moviegoers with a wide selection of beloved films spanning decades of cinematic history. \n\n\n\nRevisit one of Hollywood’s most epic romances with Casablanca. Get acquainted with Frank Capra’s directorial brilliance by checking out Arsenic and Old Lace and It Happened One Night.  Participate in The Lindsay’s cherished summer tradition of Cinema Paradiso. \n\n\n\nYou can also celebrate 70 years of Rebel Without a Cause\, 60 years of The Sound of Music\, 40 years of The Goonies and (almost) 30 years of The Birdcage with us this summer. \n\n\n\nBetween these seven Timeless Classics and Hollywood’s latest fare\, it’s going to be one heck of a summer at The Lindsay! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCasablanca\n\n\n\nPG | 1h 42min | Drama\, Romance\n\n\n\nDirector: Michael Curtiz\n\n\n\nStars: Humphrey Bogart\, Ingrid Bergman\, Paul Henreid\n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, JUNE 22\, AT 1 P.M. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere has arguably never been a more epic romance committed to celluloid than the one between Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart) and Ilsa Lund (Ingrid Bergman) in 1942’s Casablanca. Their grand courtship finished in first place on Variety’s ranking of the 50 greatest romantic movies ever made. \n\n\n\nDirector Michael Curtiz’s film is an “exceptionally well-directed and well-played picture\,” raves The Los Angeles Times. More than 80 years later\, Casablanca is still a “drama that lifts you right out of your seat\,” writes The Hollywood Reporter. \n\n\n\n“The picture has exceptional merits as absorbing entertainment\, reflecting the fine craftsmanship of all who had hands in its making. Certainly a more accomplished cast of players cannot be imagined\, and their direction by Michael Curtiz is inspired.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for Casablanca\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Birdcage\n\n\n\nR | 1h 58min | Comedy\n\n\n\nDirector: Mike Nichols\n\n\n\nStars: Robin Williams\, Nathan Lane\, Gene Hackman\n\n\n\nTUESDAY\, JUNE 24\, AT 7 P.M. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Birdcage remains a groundbreaking milestone in the history of LGBTQ+ cinema. This remake of the French farce La Cage Aux Folles stars Robin Williams and Nathan Lane as a gay couple trying to literally play it straight while meeting their son’s future in-laws. \n\n\n\nDirector Mike Nichols’ film is an “enchantingly witty and humane entertainment” that “actually improves upon its source\,” raves Entertainment Weekly. “In The Birdcage\, we go beyond the stereotypes to see the characters’ depth and humanity\,” praises the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation. \n\n\n\nAdds BBC: “What’s impressive is how relatively progressive The Birdcage still feels\, within the context of mainstream cinema\, in its treatment of queerness. Of the other Hollywood attempts at a ‘gay comedy’ in the 1990s\, and since … few have reached the bar that Nichols set.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for The Birdcage\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRebel Without a Cause\n\n\n\nPG-13 | 1h 51min | Drama\, Coming of Age\n\n\n\nDirector: Nicholas Ray\n\n\n\nStars: James Dean\, Natalie Wood\, Sal Mineo\n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, JUNE 29\, AT 1 P.M. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHas anyone ever exuded pure\, unfiltered coolness more than James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause? He plays Jim Stark\, the new kid in town looking for a fresh start. Jim ends up making plenty of friends—along with a few enemies. \n\n\n\nRebel Without a Cause was released less than a month after the 24-year-old Dean’s tragic death. “As a ‘farewell’ performance he leaves behind\, with this film\, genuine artistic regret\, for here was a talent which might have touched the heights\,” writes Variety. \n\n\n\nExpounds Slant Magazine: “Profoundly romantic and lacerating in its despair\, Nicholas Ray’s Rebel Without a Cause\, a self-contained portrait of three isolated teenagers\, is James Dean’s best film. … He’s emotionally direct\, tenderly seductive\, protective of others and blessed with courtly humor.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for Rebel Without a Cause\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCinema Paradiso—Theatrical Cut\n\n\n\nPG | 2h 4min | Drama\, Coming of Age \n\n\n\nDirector: Giuseppe Tornatore\n\n\n\nStars: Salvatore Cascio\, Philippe Noiret\, Antonella Attili\n\n\n\nIn Italian\, with English Subtitles\n\n\n\nTHURSDAY\, JULY 10\, AT 7 P.M.; THURSDAY\, AUG. 14\, AT 7 P.M. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt wouldn’t be summer at The Lindsay without Cinema Paradiso\, the sumptuous coming-of-age drama with a beautiful Ennio Morricone score. This Academy Award-winner follows a young boy as he falls in love with film and must choose between home and pursuing his dreams. \n\n\n\nCinema Paradiso is an “impossibly well-crafted” film that’s full of cinematic “richness and density of observation\,” lauds The Guardian. As The Washington Post succinctly summarizes: “It is\, in a word\, exquisite.” \n\n\n\n“There are films as lovely\, but none lovelier than Cinema Paradiso\, a folkloric salute to the medium itself\, flickering with yesterday’s innocence and lingering on the mind like bubbles in wine. Born of director Giuseppe Tornatore’s childhood memories\, this is a magic lantern in a Sicilian boy’s hand.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Cinema Paradiso\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArsenic and Old Lace\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 58min | Comedy\, Thriller\n\n\n\nDirector: Frank Capra\n\n\n\nStars: Cary Grant\, Priscilla Lane\, Raymond Massey\n\n\n\nTHURSDAY\, JULY 24\, AT 7 P.M.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArsenic and Old Lace is a 1944 comedic gem starring Cary Grant as a recently married writer who is horrified to learn that his beloved aunts (played by Josephine Hull and Jean Adair) have been harboring a bloody secret. \n\n\n\nThe first of two Frank Capra-directed films playing at The Lindsay this summer is a ” riotous farce” and “good macabre fun\,” praises The New York Times. Arsenic and Old Lace remains “an example of ensemble scenery-gnawing that has yet to be surpassed\,” declares Empire. \n\n\n\n“Josephine Hull and Jean Adair are delightfully dotty as the lethal landladies. … But it’s Cary Grant who steals the show\, as his double takes\, deliberate delivery and pantomimic commotions allow just a whisper of sanity to seep into this gloriously eccentric scenario.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for Arsenic and Old Lace\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Goonies\n\n\n\nPG | 1h 54min | Adventure\, Comedy\n\n\n\nDirector: Richard Donner\n\n\n\nStars: Sean Astin\, Josh Brolin\, Corey Feldman\n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, AUG. 10\, AT 1 P.M.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdventure awaits in The Goonies\, the 1985 summer classic about a group of kids who bite off a bit more than they can chew while searching for a pirate’s hidden treasure. The film was directed by Richard Donner (Superman) and written by Steven Spielberg and Chris Columbus (of Home Alone fame). \n\n\n\nThe Goonies is a “deliciously dizzy adventure yarn” bursting with “crowd-pleasing perks\,” applauds New York Daily News. This was the film that proved “Spielberg and his directors are absolute masters of how to excite and involve an audience\,” proclaims RogerEbert.com. \n\n\n\n“The Goonies is a smooth mixture of the usual ingredients from Steven Spielberg action movies\, made special because of the high-energy performances of the kids who have the adventures. … There’s not just a thrill a minute; there’s a thrill\, a laugh\, a shock and a special effect.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for The Goonies\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt Happened One Night\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 45min | Romance\, Comedy\n\n\n\nDirector: Frank Capra\n\n\n\nStars: Clark Gable\, Claudette Colbert\, Walter Connolly\n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, SEPT. 7\, AT 1 P.M. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt Happened One Night is a 1934 screwball comedy from It’s a Wonderful Life director Frank Capra. Clark Gable stars as newspaper reporter Peter Warne\, who runs into heiress Ellie Andrews (Claudette Colbert) and becomes her accidental travel partner. Hijinks ensue\, and sparks fly. \n\n\n\nThe Los Angeles Times in 1934 was so confident that It Happened One Night would be a hit that it declared\, “And if the public doesn’t go all the way in for this one\, then there is not\, nor should be\, any joy in Cinemaland.” The New Republic agreed\, calling the film “first-rate entertainment.” \n\n\n\n“What the picture as a whole shows is that by changing such types as the usual pooh-bah father and city editor into people with some wit and feeling\, by consistently preferring the light touch to the heavy\, and by casting actors who are thoroughly up to the work of acting\, you can make some rather comely and greenish grasses grow.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for It Happened One Night\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Sound of Music\n\n\n\nG | 2h 59min | Musical\, Drama\, Romance\n\n\n\nDirector: Robert Wise\n\n\n\nStars: Julie Andrews\, Christopher Plummer\, Eleanor Parker\n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, SEPT. 14\, AT 1 P.M.; WEDNESDAY\, SEPT. 17\, AT 6:30 P.M. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Lindsay’s Summer of Timeless Classics concludes with a 60th-anniversary screening of The Sound of Music. Nobody can resist this gorgeous recounting of how a bubbly nun named Maria (Julie Andrews) entered Georg von Trapp’s (Christopher Plummer) home and brought love and music back into his family’s lives and hearts. \n\n\n\nThis Best Picture winner was “impeccably cast” and “offers enough sentiment to warm\,” wrote the Associated Press in 1965. The Sound of Music remains “one of the most beloved family-friendly classics in cinema history\,” proclaims IndieWire.  \n\n\n\n“Even as an adult\, you’ll still find yourself singing along. That score is immortal … and the music has never sounded half as good as it does coming from Julie Andrews\, whose spritely and luminous portrayal of nun-turned-governess Maria remains the gold standard for musical theater acting.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for The Sound of Music

SUMMARY:'Caregiving'
DESCRIPTION:Bradley Cooper produced this film about the joys and struggles of life as a full-time caregiver.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP Here!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Lindsay\, WQED and Comfort Keepers are partnering to show a new PBS documentary about the triumphs and challenges of being a caregiver. \n\n\n\nCaregiving spotlights the stories of everyday folks—both paid and unpaid—as they navigate the rewarding and exhausting work inherent in caring for ill or aging loved ones. It was produced by Oscar nominee Bradley Cooper and narrated by Emmy winner Uzo Aduba\, who both served as caregivers for a sick parent. \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay is showing Caregiving on Thursday\, June 26\, at 7 p.m. The 30-minute screening will be preceded by a reception in the Theater’s Community Room from 6-7 p.m. and followed by a Q&A with local experts in caregiving and at-home care. \n\n\n\nThis event is free\, but RSVPs are required. It is being co-sponsored by Comfort Keepers\, an organization providing in-home care to communities across Western Pennsylvania\, and WQED\, Pittsburgh’s PBS affiliate that also recently collaborated with The Lindsay on the public premiere of the documentary Steel Links. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nCaregiving largely focuses on the experiences of six family and professional caregivers. The featured caregivers include Matthew\, a young father caring for both his wife and son; Jacob\, a 14-year-old who\, along with his father\, shares the role of caregiver for his mom; Tracy\, a young woman looking after her dementia-stricken father; and Zulma\, a paid home health aide with a family of her own. \n\n\n\n“Making this film has been an inspiring and humbling experience\,” says Chris Durrance\, the film’s director and senior producer. “We have come to appreciate that every family has a care story and we hope that this film inspires viewers to share their own\, building new communities of care that will bring us all closer together.” \n\n\n\nThose care stories extend to Hollywood stars Cooper (Silver Linings Playbook) and Aduba (Orange is the New Black). The film was partially inspired by Cooper’s experiences taking care of his late father\, who had lung cancer. “Their ability to focus and give all of themselves is something that I stand in awe of\,” Cooper says during Caregiving in regards to his fellow caregivers. \n\n\n\nAduba played a similar role for her late mother\, who died in 2020 after a 495-day battle with pancreatic cancer. “I belong to the caregiving community\,” she told USA Today. She hopes that Caregiving serves as “a reminder that every single one of us is touched by the need for care.”

Their film\, inspired by true events\, follows a hypothermia researcher struggling with the morally tricky notion of using potentially life-saving data that was obtained from a terrible source. \n\n\n\nKovitz’s feature directorial debut will screen at The Lindsay on Thursday\, July 31\, at 7 p.m. Tickets are free\, but RSVPs are recommended in advance. \n\n\n\nAmy Marsalis stars as Dr. Sidney Randall\, a researcher who stumbles across invaluable data that was gathered during experiments at long-defunct Nazi death camps. Dr. Randall recruits a team to help her navigate the cutthroat world of health-ethics debates and (hopefully) earn the medical establishment’s approval to validate her findings. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe main cast also includes Kovitz\, Dominique Brock\, Daniel Klein\, Lisa Ann Goldsmith and Ken Bolden. \n\n\n\nKovitz is an actor\, writer\, musician\, producer and award-winning filmmaker.

SUMMARY:The Lindsay's Third Annual Documentary Series
DESCRIPTION:A new school year is upon us. At The Lindsay\, this means it’s officially documentary season! \n\n\n\nOur third annual Documentary Series will get everyone’s intellectual juices flowing with a selection of six fun and fascinating films. Visit us from Aug. 29-Sept. 11 to soak up a wealth of information on art\, ecology\, language\, health care and much more. \n\n\n\nArt enthusiasts will definitely want to check out Georgia O’Keeffe: The Brightness of Light and the Thomas Kinkade reexamination Art for Everybody. Sanibel explores the devastating effects of natural disasters\, while Single-Use Planet enlists Beaver residents to investigate a manmade environmental calamity. \n\n\n\nRebel With a Clause is a lighthearted experiment in sewing divisions through bringing out our inner grammar nerds. Caregiving is a moving snapshot of the many\, many Americans facing the daunting task of caring for a sick or aging loved one. \n\n\n\nTickets for these exhilarating and thought-provoking documentaries—plus a few showtimes also featuring filmmaker Q&As—are now available on our website. Embrace that academic spirit and enjoy a documentary (or two\, or three) at The Lindsay! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRebel With a Clause\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 26min\n\n\n\nDirector: Brandt Johnson\n\n\n\nStars: Ellen Jovin\, Brandt Johnson\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor Ellen Jovin\, grammar isn’t a set of rules in need of policing. That’s why this “roving grammarian” started setting up public “Grammar Tables” with the express purpose of inviting anyone to ask questions and\, ideally\, inspire civil and scintillating discussions. \n\n\n\nRebel With a Clause chronicles Jovin’s experiences behind her Grammar Table in all 50 states. Director (and Jovin’s husband) Brandt Johnson follows Jovin around as she interacts with everyday folks who have equally passionate opinions about the English language. \n\n\n\nJohnson and Jovin’s documentary is “the funniest movie so far this year\,” declares The Berkshire Edge. “The action is breezy and lighthearted” while also offering “instances of surprise” for even the most diehard grammar aficionados\, writes The New York Times. \n\n\n\n“Grammar is language glue that binds us together\,” Jovin told CBC News. “While we’re talking … we get this human connection\, this sense of community\, and it just feels so joyous and sometimes even raucous.” \n\n\n\nJohnson and Jovin will join us for an in-person Q&A following the 7 p.m. Rebel With a Clause screening on Friday\, Aug. 29. \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Rebel With a Clause\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArt for Everybody\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 46min\n\n\n\nDirector: Miranda Yousef\n\n\n\nStar: Thomas Kinkade\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nChances are good you’ve seen a Thomas Kinkade original. You may even own a print or mug made by one of the most commercially successful (and critically reviled) artists in American history. \n\n\n\nArt for Everybody documents Kinkade’s difficult life and shows that there was more to this “Painter of Light” than anyone could’ve guessed. \n\n\n\nDirector Miranda Yousef takes viewers into Kinkade’s “vault” of previously unreleased works that his family discovered following the artist’s shocking 2012 death. There are thousands of paintings in that collection\, many of which are darker and more formally interesting than the average Kinkade pastoral. \n\n\n\n“Many fascinating threads” are explored in Yousef’s “insightful and highly entertaining documentary\,” raves Variety. Art for Everybody is a “well-structured\, meticulously researched and revealing” film\, proclaims The New York Times.  \n\n\n\nAdds RogerEbert.com: “Miranda Yousef has come up with a structurally complex and very empathetic portrait of a troubled man. … This is a fascinating documentary about a family discovering the depth and complexity of their patriarch while coming to terms with his flaws.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Art for Everybody\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSanibel\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 6min\n\n\n\nDirector: Jamie Winterstern\n\n\n\nStars: Emily Miller\, Judy Beerman\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSanibel was originally conceived as a wholesome look at seashell culture in Southwest Florida. Its two stars\, Emily Miller and Judy Beerman\, are jovial figures with deep roots in that very tourist-friendly area. \n\n\n\nSix weeks into filming\, Hurricane Ian ravaged the Florida coast—including the tiny island of Sanibel. There was no way director Jamie Winterstern’s film could continue as planned amidst so much destruction and despair. \n\n\n\n“It looked like a nuclear bomb had let off\,” Miller told WBBH-TV. “All I could do was cry and say\, ‘My beloved island!’” \n\n\n\nWinterstern’s film suddenly became an exercise in capturing a grieving community’s efforts to heal and rebuild. Miller and Beerman instantly became symbols of hope and examples of resilience. \n\n\n\n“They’re very special people\,” Winterstern told WBBH. “I think being able to give them a voice is an accomplishment of what this movie does\, and I’m proud of it.” \n\n\n\nWinterstern will participate in a virtual Q&A following the 5 p.m. Sanibel screening on Monday\, Sept. 1. \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Sanibel\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSingle-Use Planet\n\n\n\nNR | 57min\n\n\n\nDirector: Steve Cowan\n\n\n\nStars: Rocco Martini\, Sharon Pillar\, Lew Villotti\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’re all taught from an early age to separate trash from recyclable materials. So then why does so much plastic still end up in our oceans? In Single-Use Planet\, director Steve Cowan attempts to uncover the political and economic factors that have resulted in plastic becoming a major aquatic pollutant. \n\n\n\n“While filming content for another project out at sea\, we found ourselves at times amidst vast gyres of ocean plastic stretching from horizon to horizon\,” Cowan tells KQED. \n\n\n\n“We knew at that point that we had to tell the story of the growing dangers of the overuse of discardable\, single-use plastics that are threatening our oceans and\, in many cases\, our health.” \n\n\n\nCowan’s investigation begins in Pennsylvania and features plenty of politicians\, scientists and concerned citizens from the Keystone State. Single-Use Planet interviews a few figures from the Pittsburgh area—including multiple Beaver residents and leaders. \n\n\n\n“Ultimately\, each person and family will make their own decisions about using plastic\,” says Cowan. “We simply hope to provide as much information as possible to inform those decisions.” \n\n\n\nLocal environmental experts and advocates will join us for an in-person panel discussion following the 2:45 p.m. Single Use-Planet screening on Saturday\, Sept. 6. \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Single-Use Planet\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCaregiving\n\n\n\nPG | 1h 54min\n\n\n\nDirector: Chris Durrance\n\n\n\nStars: Bradley Cooper\, Uzo Aduba\, Matthew Cauli\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery day\, roughly 63 million Americans serve as primary caregivers for an ill or aging loved one. Their lives are put on pause due to this immense responsibility they perform out of pure devotion—but also at great physical\, mental and financial costs.  \n\n\n\nCaregiving spotlights the daily challenges and triumphs experienced by just a few of these individuals. Director Chris Durrance’s subjects include a young father caring for his wife and son; a 14-year-old helping his father look after his ailing mother; and a young woman taking care of her dementia-stricken father. \n\n\n\nDurrance’s documentary was executive produced by Oscar nominee Bradley Cooper and narrated by Emmy winner Uzo Aduba. Both actors have served as caregivers for parents during their battles with cancer. \n\n\n\n“Caregivers are heroic people\,” says Cooper in a press release.”Their ability to focus and give all of themselves is something I stand in awe of. … It is my hope that Caregiving will provide affirmation and support for those who do this profoundly meaningful and increasingly vital work.” \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay showed a shorter Caregiving cut earlier this summer in front of a sold-out crowd. Documentary Series audiences will see the full version of this moving and powerful film. \n\n\n\nDurrance will participate in a virtual Q&A following the 7 p.m. Caregiving showing on Monday\, Sept. 8. \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Caregiving\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGeorgia O’Keeffe: The Brightness of Light\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 58min\n\n\n\nDirector: Paul Wagner\n\n\n\nStars: Claire Danes\, Hugh Dancy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGeorgia O’Keeffe was affectionately known as the “Mother of American Modernism.” She lived for 98 captivating years that produced countless masterpieces and a great deal of interest in her personal life. \n\n\n\nGeorgia O’Keeffe: The Brightness of Light is a comprehensive window into O’Keeffe’s remarkable talent\, her relationship with fellow artist Alfred Stieglitz and the renowned painter’s lasting impact on an entire medium. \n\n\n\nThe film is narrated by Hannibal star Hugh Dancy\, and Emmy winner Claire Danes serves as O’Keeffe’s voice. The Brightness of Light was directed by Paul Wagner\, who won the 1985 Academy Award for Best Documentary Short as co-director of The Stone Carver. \n\n\n\nPaul and Ellen Casey Wagner\, his producing partner and wife\, were inspired to make The Brightness of Light after perusing a museum exhibit about O’Keeffe in 2018. Their goal was to make the greatest documentary about O’Keeffe in nearly half a century. \n\n\n\n“In the last years of Georgia O’Keeffe’s life\, curator Sarah Greenough of the National Gallery of Art created an exhibit including letters to and from Alfred Stieglitz\,” Paul Wagner says. “O’Keeffe had only two requests regarding the presentation. We have attempted\, in creating our film\, to adhere to the same two standards—to make it beautiful and to make it honest.” \n\n\n\nPaul and Ellen Casey Wagner will participate in a virtual Q&A following the 3 p.m. The Brightness of Light showing on Sunday\, Aug. 31. \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for The Brightness of Light

SUMMARY:'Clemente'
DESCRIPTION:Local filmmaker David Altrogge’s documentary about The Great One is coming to The Lindsay!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets Here!\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nThe Lindsay will soon be showing a locally produced documentary about arguably the greatest athlete to ever play for a Pittsburgh professional sports team. \n\n\n\nClemente will play at The Lindsay from (at least) Sept. 12-18. Duane Rieder\, founder of The Clemente Museum in Lawrenceville and a prominent local photographer\, will introduce the 4:30 p.m. Clemente screening on Sunday\, Sept. 14. \n\n\n\nDirector David Altrogge’s film spotlights Pirates legend Roberto Clemente’s amazing life\, baseball career\, and why he remains such a revered figure in Western Pennsylvania and beyond. \n\n\n\nThe film starts with Clemente’s childhood in Puerto Rico\, takes viewers through his Pirates heyday\, and immortalizes The Great One’s philanthropic legacy that was tragically exemplified by his 1972 death in a plane crash while delivering aid to Nicaragua. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe documentary includes interviews with Clemente’s sons\, Luis and Robert Jr.; the last interview with his late wife\, Vera; multiple Pirates legends; contemporary Major League Baseball stars like Francisco Lindor and Yadier Molina; Pittsburgh-raised movie star Michael Keaton; and Rita Moreno\, an Oscar-winning actor and fellow Puerto Rican icon. \n\n\n\nAltrogge is the co-founder of locally based production company Vinegar Hill. He and Vinegar Hill co-founder Michael Barnett produced Clemente alongside a group that also includes renowned director Richard Linklater and the SpringHill Company duo of Maverick Carter and NBA superstar LeBron James. \n\n\n\nThis is the second Altrogge-directed film to play at The Lindsay. Neat: The Story of Bourbon was part of the Theater’s 2024 Documentary Series. Altrogge graciously appeared at the Theater for a Neat Q&A\, and we hope he’ll be available again to discuss making this beautiful tribute to The Great One with Lindsay patrons. \n\n\n\n“Clemente is a quintessential Pittsburgh story\,” Altrogge says. “His mission was about bringing people together. We hope this film brings people together in Pittsburgh and across the world.”

SUMMARY:'Not If I See You First'
DESCRIPTION:Check out this local screening of Pittsburgher Kenny Zimlinghaus’ new buddy comedy!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP Here!\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nThe Lindsay’s latest Emerging Filmmakers Showcase is a brand-new buddy comedy starring a prominent Pittsburgh media personality. \n\n\n\nNot If I See You First was written and directed by Illinois-based filmmaker Aaron Wertheimer. It stars Wertheimer and Jefferson Hills’ Kenny Zimlinghaus as two guys whose lives are forever changed after a chance meeting in Chicago. \n\n\n\nThis two-hander will have its Western Pennsylvania premiere at The Lindsay on Thursday\, Sept. 18\, at 7 p.m. Zimlinghaus will be on hand for an in-person Q&A following the screening. Tickets are free\, but RSVPs are recommended in advance due to space limitations. \n\n\n\nKenny (Zimlinghaus) meets Aaron (Wertheimer) during a work trip to Chicago. Aaron convinces him to extend that trip. But when Kenny’s car explodes and Aaron gets selective amnesia\, will their fledgling friendship survive? The Not If I See You First cast also includes Johanna Wertheimer\, Elizabeth Stam and Leslie Crum. \n\n\n\n\nZimlinghaus is a Long Island\, N.Y.\, native who has been living in Western Pennsylvania for the past decade. The actor and nationally touring comedian is also a radio/podcast program coordinator in Robert Morris University’s Academic Media Center. His Not If I See You First character is also a Pittsburgher\, and he wears a “pretty sweet Pittsburgh shirt” for a large portion of his screen time.  \n\n\n\n“Pittsburgh has been a special place for me\, and not just since I moved here\,” Zimlinghaus says. “My wife is from here\, and I’ve learned to really fall in love with it here. So getting to know the city and its humor\, I think this film fits right into the funny\, zany and obscure things people from Pittsburgh may find amusing. I’m looking forward to the screening\, and hope I do the Steel City proud!” \n\n\n\nWertheimer is a seasoned filmmaker who has now written and directed three comedies. Fun fact: The Skokie\, Ill.\, resident’s wife and two children all appear in Not If I See You First. Another fun fact: Wertheimer’s in-laws live in Squirrel Hill\, and Mario Lemieux is his favorite hockey player. \n\n\n\n“Not If I See You First is a straight-up heartfelt comedy\, which is becoming more and more rare in indie film\,” says Wertheimer. “A big goal with the film is just for people to get lost in its absurd logic and have a good time watching it.”

SUMMARY:Pittsburgh Silent Film Festival: 'Ben-Hur'
DESCRIPTION:Watch this 1925 biblical epic\, accompanied by live piano music\, at The Lindsay! \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets Here!\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nThe Pittsburgh Silent Film Society returns to The Lindsay in September with a century-old classic full of drama\, romance and epic chariot races. \n\n\n\nBen-Hur will play at The Lindsay on Sunday\, Sept. 28\, at 7 p.m.\, as part of the third annual Pittsburgh Silent Film Festival. This screening will be accompanied by live piano music\, courtesy of local composer Tyler Stoner. Tickets are available for $11. \n\n\n\nBen-Hur was directed by Fred Niblo and stars Ramon Novarro as Judah Ben-Hur\, an aristocrat-turned-slave who is unjustly imprisoned by a former friend. \n\n\n\nA slip of a brick during a Roman parade causes Judah to be sent off as a galley slave\, his property confiscated and his mother and sister imprisoned. Years later\, Judah returns to his homeland an exalted and wealthy Roman athlete. Unable to find his mother and sister\, and believing them dead\, he can think of nothing else than revenge. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe film’s cast also includes Francis X. Bushman as Roman officer Messala; Claire McDowell as Miriam\, Judah’s mother; Kathleen Key as Tirzah\, Judah’s sister; and May McAvoy as Esther\, a merchant’s daughter. \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay has been hosting Pittsburgh Silent Film Festival screenings since its inception in 2023. That year\, the Theater showed the 1920 silent horror film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. In 2024\, the Pittsburgh Silent Film Society brought fellow Robert Wiene film The Hands of Orlac to the Sewickley nonprofit theater. \n\n\n\nChad Hunter\, the Pittsburgh Silent Film Society’s founder\, reminds silent film aficionados that the Library of Congress added Ben-Hur to the National Film Registry in 1997 because it “had such a tremendous influence on filmmakers of the day.” \n\n\n\n“In this year’s festival\, Ben-Hur is one of just a couple titles that are rarely screened or seen anymore\,” Hunter says. “Seeing this film in a theater\, on the big screen\, with live piano accompaniment by Tyler Stoner\, is an opportunity not to be missed!”

It follows a young man facing extraordinary challenges during a brothel visit. \n\n\n\n• The Convent\, directed by Cole Rawson\, is a horror-thriller about a girl going through immense effort to convince a ritualistic cult that she still remains faithful. \n\n\n\n• Mallory is director Jaime Meyers’ portrait of a man who learns that some things should remain hidden while searching for his missing daughter. \n\n\n\n\nTickets for Bizarre Bazaar Block\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrind\n\n\n\n8 p.m. | 1h 24min | Horror\n\n\n\nDirector: Mark Cantu\n\n\n\nStars: Kelsey Rhea\, Brian Ceponis\, Molly Souza\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFans of locally made horror may recognize Pittsburgh-based filmmaker Mark Cantu as the director of 2021 slasher Massacre Academy and 2023 creature feature Wolf Hollow. \n\n\n\nHis latest project\, Grind\, is a horror-thriller about a group of college students who accidentally unleash cosmic horror after unearthing a cursed movie during a grindhouse film festival. All it took was pressing play on The Creeping Chaos to release uncontrollable mayhem. \n\n\n\nCantu co-wrote the script for Grind with Brian Bell and Brian Ceponis. Ceponis\, a local actor and co-founder of Western Pennsylvania production company RedSlate Films\, co-stars alongside a cast that also includes Kelsey Rhea\, Molly Souza and Stanton Rutledge. \n\n\n\n\nTickets for Grind\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOCT. 3 SHOWTIMES AND TICKETS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKick the Can\n\n\n\n11 a.m. | 1h 30min | Comedy\, Crime\n\n\n\nDirector: Jim Menza\n\n\n\nStars: Kristin Auge\, Jack Burr\, Niko Caponigro\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nKick the Can is a lighthearted crime comedy from writer-director Jim Menza. The title evokes both a classic children’s game and a renowned episode of The Twilight Zone. This Milknose Films production comes with a tantalizing tagline: “Some games\, you play for keeps.” \n\n\n\nThe film is centered around a man who sets out on a 24-hour adventure to save a woman’s life. Along the way\, he meets a plethora of chaotic characters and finds himself in consistently strange situations. \n\n\n\n\nTickets for Kick the Can\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHitman: The Slaughter\n\n\n\n12:40 p.m. | 1h 28min | Thriller\, Crime\n\n\n\nDirector: Seth Nardo\n\n\n\nStars: Ian Falcone\, Frank Ripoly\, Steve Nardo\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis crime-thriller’s title is also a pretty good description of what’s in store for moviegoers. Director Seth Nardo’s film follows a group of dangerous individuals as they engage in … well\, the things hitmen do. \n\n\n\nNardo is a 24-year-old Ohioan making his directorial debut with Hitman: The Slaughter. Between the film’s content\, its setting and colorful characters\, a good alternate title for this film may have been Once Upon a Time in Ohio. \n\n\n\n\nTickets for Hitman: The Slaughter\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Muscle\n\n\n\n2:20 p.m. | 1h 20min | Thriller\, Crime\n\n\n\nDirector: Ryan Halasz\n\n\n\nStars: Ryan Halasz\, Stephen Caruso\, Eric Cerbo\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Muscle is another-crime thriller that would make a great double feature with Hitman: The Slaughter. Ryan Halasz wrote\, directed and stars in this film about a guy with a big heart who gets caught up in a life of crime. \n\n\n\nRon (Halasz) witnesses a murder\, which eventually leads to him discovering the truth about his father’s death. It’s far beyond what Ron could have ever imagined. He must choose revenge or forgiveness—even as he grapples with some pretty extreme violations of trust. \n\n\n\n\nTickets for The Muscle\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrenzy Moon\n\n\n\n3:50 p.m. | 1h 21min | Horror\n\n\n\nStars: Alyssa Grace Adams\, Aaron Krygier\, Kayla Malika\n\n\n\nDirector: Gregory Lamberson\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou probably could’ve guessed by the title that this is an old-fashioned werewolf flick. Gregory Lamberson wrote and directed this creature feature about six graduate students and a mysterious stranger battling a pack of ferocious man-beasts in a secluded cabin. \n\n\n\n\nTickets for Frenzy Moon\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDark Funhouse Block\n\n\n\n5:20 p.m. | 2h 2min\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nHorror fans\, this is the short film block for you! \n\n\n\n• Bealtaine: Two otherworldly companions entertain a special guest as they celebrate their annual Celtic tradition of Bealtaine.

Director Mike Davis recycled footage from more than 300 stock and public domain films and injected his creation with brand new storylines and dialogue. \n\n\n\nThis sci-fi satire follows a rogue FBI agent who is forced to partner with the United States Army to defeat the Ku Klux Plan. In an attempt to go mainstream\, the KKK has modernized and gone high tech with flashy new promotional videos\, clothing and an evil plot to plunge the country into a race war—with a shrink ray. \n\n\n\n“I made this film as if it was the last one I’d ever do\,” says Davis. “It’s a comedy\, a satire\, a surreal absurdity\, and ideally an inspiration to independent filmmakers and creators everywhere who are working with limited resources and great imaginations.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets for Dead\, White and Blue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWeird Adventures Block\n\n\n\n11:40 a.m. | 1h 51min\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis shorts block is a fun mix of live-action and animated fare: \n\n\n\n• Boxes for Rox (animation): Awareness is the first phase.

SUMMARY:Robert Redford Classics
DESCRIPTION:The Lindsay is celebrating a Hollywood legend by showing three of his most important films. \n\n\n\nRobert Redford passed away last month at age 89. Among his many accomplishments\, Redford starred in Best Picture winners The Sting and Out of Africa; directed Best Picture winner Ordinary People; appeared in a variety of beloved films\, from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid to All the President’s Men; co-founded the Sundance Institute and Sundance Film Festival; and received a Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2016. \n\n\n\nTo celebrate his incomparable legacy\, The Lindsay will play three Redford classics multiple times between Monday\, Oct. 6 and Thursday\, Oct. 16. Here are quick primers on The Sting\, The Way We Were and Out of Africa: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Sting\n\n\n\nPG | 2h 9min | Crime\, Drama\, Comedy\n\n\n\nDirector: George Roy Hill\n\n\n\nStars: Robert Redford\, Paul Newman\, Robert Shaw\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Sting reunites the Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid trio of director George Roy Hill and stars Paul Newman and Robert Redford. Redford plays con man Johnny Hooker\, who is out for revenge against mobster Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw) for murdering his best friend. He and master con artist Henry Gondorff (Newman) construct an elaborate ruse to take Lonnegan for all he’s worth. \n\n\n\n“The Sting is pure gold\, the kind of movie that dreams of sophisticated entertainment are made on\,” declares New York Magazine. The film’s central con “makes for some of the funniest\, most outrageous\, suspenseful and surprising moments” in cinema history\, raves the Los Angeles Times. \n\n\n\n“It’s a triumph of quality Hollywood craftsmanship. … The Sting overflows with warmth and nostalgia. Newman\, Redford and Shaw are in top form.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for The Sting\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Way We Were\n\n\n\nPG | 1h 58min | Romance\, Drama\n\n\n\nDirector: Sydney Pollack\n\n\n\nStar: Robert Redford\, Barbara Streisand\, Bradford Dillman\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Way We Were is one of seven collaborations between Redford and director Syndey Pollack. It stars Barbara Streisand as Katie Morosky\, a politically active young woman who strikes up a relationship with Hubbell Gardiner (Redford). Despite their differences\, they marry and desperately try to keep their love alive. \n\n\n\nThis searing romantic drama “stays afloat because of the chemistry between Barbara Streisand and Robert Redford\,” praises The New Yorker. \n\n\n\nPollack’s film\, featuring Oscar-winning Marvin Hamlisch music\, “says things that no one else has dared to say in a major Hollywood movie\,” The Hollywood Reporter proclaimed in 1973. The always game Redford exudes “icy\, dangerous charm.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for The Way We Were\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOut of Africa\n\n\n\nPG | 1h 58min | Epic\, Drama\, Romance\n\n\n\nDirector: Sydney Pollack\n\n\n\nStar: Robert Redford\, Meryl Streep\, Klaus Maria Brandauer\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nOut of Africa won seven Oscars at the 1986 Academy Awards\, including Best Picture\, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay. Based on the life and memoirs of Danish author Isak Dinesen\, this epic drama set in early 19th-century Kenya follows the blossoming romance between a wealthy baroness (Meryl Streep) and rugged big-game hunter (Redford). \n\n\n\n“Never has a country been more lovingly photographed” than Kenya in director Sydney Pollack’s “vibrant\, lush movie\,” applauds the New York Daily News. Pollack’s multi-Oscar winner is “an old-fashioned\, intelligent\, thoughtful love story\,” Roger Ebert wrote in 1985. \n\n\n\n“Out of Africa is a great movie to look at\, breathtakingly filmed on location. It is a movie with the courage to be about complex\, sweeping emotions\, and to use the star power of its actors without apology.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Out of Africa

SUMMARY:Alfred Hitchcock Classics
DESCRIPTION:There’s a chill in the air\, and The Lindsay is leaning into spooky season vibes with two films from the Master of Suspense himself. \n\n\n\nAlfred Hitchcock is a Hollywood legend with a filmography that includes all-timers like 1940’s Rebecca\, 1954’s Rear Window\, 1959’s North by Northwest\, and 1963’s The Birds. His films earned 46 Academy Award nominations\, including five Best Director nods. \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay is playing the Hitchcock classics Vertigo (1958) and Psycho (1960) multiple times between Friday\, Oct. 17 and Thursday\, Oct. 30. Here’s everything you need to know about these gripping psychological thrillers: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVertigo\n\n\n\nPG | 2h 8min | Thriller\, Mystery\, Romance\n\n\n\nDirector: Alfred Hitchcock\n\n\n\nStars: James Stewart\, Kim Novak\, Barbara Bel Geddes\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVertigo stars Indiana\, Pa.\, native James Stewart as John “Scottie” Ferguson\, a San Francisco detective with a crippling fear of heights. An old friend hires Scottie to trail his wife\, Madeleine (Kim Novak)\, on suspicions of strange behavior. Scottie becomes increasingly obsessed with Madeleine over the course of his investigaton. \n\n\n\n“Alfred Hitchcock tops his own fabulous record for suspense with Vertigo\,” declares The Hollywood Reporter. “To watch this movie as it should be seen is too primal an experience to miss\,” The Washington Post wrote of viewing Vertigo in a movie theater. \n\n\n\n“Do yourself an aesthetic favor: Take the plunge. You’ll love the fall all the way down.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Vertigo\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPsycho\n\n\n\nR | 1h 49min | Horror\, Thriller\, Drama\n\n\n\nDirector: Alfred Hitchcock\n\n\n\nStar: Anthony Perkins\, Janet Leigh\, Vera Miles\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPsycho remains the gold standard for cinematic horror. Marion Crane (Janet Leigh) is a secretary on the run with stolen money. She checks into a motel run by Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins)\, a seemingly innocuous guy harboring a twisted secret. \n\n\n\nHitchcock’s most famous film is also his “most brilliantly directed shocker\,” proclaims the Los Angeles Times. Nobody thought The Guardian was exaggerating in 2010 when it called Psycho “the best horror film of all time.” \n\n\n\n“After half a century of terror\, Psycho is still ensuring that no one feels safe in the shower.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtimes for Psycho

SUMMARY:Emerging Filmmakers Showcase: 'BATSH*T'
DESCRIPTION:The Lindsay is celebrating Halloween this year with an Emerging Filmmakers Showcase that’s chock-full of locally made frights and delights. \n\n\n\nBatsh*t is an indie horror-comedy that was inspired by genre favorites like Evil Dead\, Beetlejuice and A Nightmare on Elm Street. It follows an alcoholic who accidentally takes a hallucinatory drug and enters a nightmarish new world. \n\n\n\nThe Lindsay will be showing Batsh*t on Thursday\, Oct. 30\, at 7 p.m. This screening will be immediately followed by an in-person Q&A with director and co-writer Todd Wolfson\, star Jerry Pietrala and editor Karl O’Janpa. The event is free\, and The Lindsay recommends that all attendees use the form below to RSVP in advance due to space limitations. \n\n\n\nWolfson\, a Pittsburgh native and founder of production company Just Buried Entertainment\, is making his feature directorial debut with Batsh*t. The film stars Pietrala as Felix Darby\, a lost soul on a mind-altering journey. Along the way\, Felix encounters oddities such as a friend talking in tongues\, his roommate turning into an 8-bit character\, a talking killer cherry pie\, being haunted by his own ghost and much more. \n\n\n\nWolfson has been working on BatSh*t since 2018. He co-wrote the script with David Ogrodowski\, a veteran local filmmaker and actor who also appears in the film. The largely Western Pennsylvania-based cast also includes Tiffany Kemp\, Mikhail Tot\, Edward Pfeifer\, Nexus Lyons\, Samantha Ainsworth\, Brian Ceponis and Ben Dietels. \n\n\n\nBatsh*t is a mostly live-action film that also contains wild sequences involving both 2D and 3D animation\, stop-motion effects\, claymation—and even puppets! Be prepared for what Wolfson describes as a “very zany and original” cinematic experience. \n\n\n\n“This is a very important film to me\,” Wolfson says. “It’s jam-packed with a lot of Pittsburgh’s most talented actors. Batsh*t is a wildly entertaining dark comedy with a fantasy twist\, and it’s extremely independent to the core!” \n\n\n\n\n                \n                        \n                            Emerging Filmmakers Showcase BATSH*T October 30\, 2025 Reservation Sign Up\n                             \n                        \n                        X/TwitterThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Number of Tickets(Required)Phone Number(Required)Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Any Special Accommodations (Seating Accessibility\, etc.)?\n          \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n        \n                        \n                        \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nClick Me!

SUMMARY:Emerging Filmmakers Showcase: 'MAXX: SON OF THE DAMNED'
DESCRIPTION:The Lindsay’s only November Emerging Filmmakers Showcase is the perfect way to close out the Halloween season! \n\n\n\nMaxx: Son of the Damned is a locally made fantasy saga from Pittsburgh-based 3.B.T. Productions. This dark coming-of-age tale is centered around Maxx (Caleb Bartholow)\, the first natural-born warlock in centuries\, and the evil forces who want to use his powers for mass destruction. \n\n\n\nAn early version of this film will screen at The Lindsay on Thursday\, Nov. 6\, at 7 p.m. This showing will be immediately followed by a filmmaker Q&A. The event is free\, and The Lindsay recommends that all attendees use the form below to RSVP in advance due to space limitations. \n\n\n\nMaxx: Son of the Damned was written and directed by 3.B.T. co-founders Xayne Allen and Delaney Hathaway. Following his 21st birthday\, Maxx discovers that Eve (Amy Lyn Elliott)\, the first woman\, and her followers want to use his magical abilities to bring about the apocalypse. With Maxx’s haunting past catching up with him\, will he choose to save humanity or destroy it? \n\n\n\n“This film is the perfect way to close out spooky season\,” says Allen. “It’s dark\, thrilling and packed with that eerie magic that lingers long after the credits roll.” \n\n\n\nHathaway and fellow 3.B.T. co-founder Charlie Gray both appear in Maxx: Son of the Damned. The largely local cast also includes Christina Chickis\, Stephanie Swift\, Brian Ceponis\, Naomi Terrell and Erika Krenn. \n\n\n\n“Fans of indie cinema should be thrilled to join us for this special first look\,” says Allen. “They’ll get to experience the film before it’s complete and play a part in shaping its final cut alongside the cast and crew.” \n\n\n\n\n                \n                        \n                            Emerging Filmmakers Showcase MAXX: SON OF THE DAMNED November 6\, 2025 Reservation Sign Up\n                             \n                        \n                        URLThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Number of Tickets(Required)Phone Number(Required)Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Any Special Accommodations (Seating Accessibility\, etc.)?\n          \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n        \n                        \n                        \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nClick Me!

SUMMARY:Center for Hope Food Drive
DESCRIPTION:Support a local food pantry this holiday season!\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis year\, The Lindsay is collecting nonperishables for the food pantry at The Center for Hope\, an Ambridge nonprofit that has been meeting growing demands. Through New Year’s Eve\, The Lindsay will gather food donations. \n\n\n\n“Theater patrons have been immensely generous with the food drives we’ve held in the past\,” says Lindsay CEO Carolina Pais-Barreto Thor. “Center for Hope has been a long-time partner of the Theater\, and we want to step up during this time of scarcity.” \n\n\n\nThe Center for Hope welcomes donations of any non-expired\, nonperishable foods. Director Sue Otto suggests: cereal\, macaroni and cheese\, ramen noodles\, canned tuna and chicken\, and saltine or oyster crackers for soup. However\, they would be grateful for “pretty much anything off the grocery shelves.” \n\n\n\nContributions can be dropped off when you come to watch films at the Theater during its operating hours through the week and on weekends\, which are 30 minutes before the day’s shows begin through when the last show is seated. Alternatively\, bring a few cans and boxes when you watch Nuremberg this weekend—or later\, when you visit us to check out Wicked: For Good\, Zootopia 2\, Holiday Classics or any films in our lineup. \n\n\n\nDemand at the Center is “through the roof\,” with 1\,100 people served in October alone\, says Otto\, director since 2007. She has seen many new faces at the Center this fall\, including military\, federal workers and senior citizens. \n\n\n\nNot only are some out of work\, “it’s also at a time when people are getting slammed with higher prices on everything. They’re crying\, desperate on the phone and I tell them\, ‘Hey\, we’re here for you.’ We’re open to everyone.” \n\n\n\nIn addition to the food pantry\, the Center supplies Hungry Kids Snack Bags to children in the food pantry and families requesting the extra help through Ambridge Area School District\, providing 3\,600 snack bags in October to help fill young bellies over the weekend\, when school meals are not available.

Three Rivers is an annual festival spotlighting independent cinema from around the world.

This will be the fifth time that The Lindsay is participating in Three Rivers\, which was recently crowned this region’s Best Film Festival in Pittsburgh Magazine‘s 2025 Best of the ‘Burgh readers’ poll. \n\n\n\nLast year’s Three Rivers offerings at The Lindsay included Western Pennsylvania-made gems Basic Psych and The Great One. We also showed Flow\, which went on to win Best Animated Feature at the Academy Awards. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTickets are now on sale for all individual Three Rivers screenings\, as well as full festival and other passes. You can purchase tickets online via Film Pittsburgh’s website\, and at The Lindsay on the day of each screening. Please direct all ticketing-related questions to Film Pittsburgh via info@filmpittsburgh.org or 412-426-FILM (3456). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAontas\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 31min | Thriller\, Crime \n\n\n\nDirector: Damian McCann \n\n\n\nStars: Carrie Crowley\, Bid Brennan\, Eva-Jane Gaffney \n\n\n\nThursday\, Nov. 13 @ 7 P.M. (In Irish\, with subtitles)\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAontas received Best Feature and Best Director honors at the 2025 Manchester Film Festival. This international crime thriller follows three women who rob an Irish Credit Union. Their heist goes horribly wrong\, and everyone involved can only reflect on the choices and events that drove these women to their fates. \n\n\n\n“Aontas features some terrific performances from stalwarts Carrie Crowley and Brid Brennan\,” raves Screen International. Director Damian McCann made “a thoroughly gripping and exceptional film\,” declares Film Threat. \n\n\n\n“Aontas is a rare gem—a thriller that leaves you on the edge of your seat as the revelations spool out\, but also a masterwork of film construction and craft.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for Aontas\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMistura\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 37min | Drama \n\n\n\nDirector: Ricardo de Montreuil \n\n\n\nStars: Barbara Mori\, Cesar Ballumbrosio\, Christian Meier \n\n\n\nFriday\, Nov. 14 @ 7 P.M. (In Spanish\, with subtitles)\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMistura is a festival circuit favorite\, having already been awarded the Jury Award for Best Narrative Feature at the Durango Independent Film Festival\, Sarasota Film Festival and Stony Brook Film Festival. Set in 1960s Peru\, it chronicles a formerly privileged woman’s culinary journey following a change in her societal status. \n\n\n\nDirector Ricardo de Montreuil gives audiences “a delicious look at Peru\,” praises We Live Entertainment. Mistura is “a vivid tale of self-discovery and change\,” applauds Loud and Clear Reviews. \n\n\n\n“De Montreuil paints this transformation against the beautiful backdrop of Peru\, with breathtaking cinematography that captures every detail. … These visuals are more than just beautiful; they feel alive\, showcasing Peru in a way that feels both intimate and grand.” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for Mistura\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Fisherman\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 48min | Comedy\, Fantasy \n\n\n\nDirector: Zoey Martinson \n\n\n\nStars: Ricky Adelayitar\, Endurance Dedzo\, William Lamptey \n\n\n\nSaturday\, Nov. 15 @ 4 P.M.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Fisherman is a Ghanaian film that recently won the Grand Jury Award for Best Feature at the Cordillera International Film Festival. This heartwarming and surreal romp finds a retired fisherman embarking on an unexpected adventure with a talking fish. \n\n\n\nDirector Zoey Martinson’s film “has a lovely musical opening” and “some first-rate snappy dialogue\,” lauds RogerEbert.com. “The dialogue is delightfully wacky\,” and “the earnestness of the story will have you chuckling and smirking in no time\,” proclaims Sinema Focus. \n\n\n\n“Ultimately\, The Fisherman feels first like a recognition\, then a reconciliation between past and present for its protagonist and his family. The ending is more emotionally satisfying because it honors the core of this ethos.”  \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for The Fisherman\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTransplant\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 33min | Drama\, Thriller \n\n\n\nDirector: Jason Park \n\n\n\nStars: Bill Camp\, Eric Nam\, Laurence Leboeuf \n\n\n\nSaturday\, Nov. 15 @ 7 P.M.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTransplant is filmmaker Jason Park’s feature directorial debut. It stars Eric Nam as Jonah\, a highly motivated surgical resident. Jonah is pushed to his limits after landing a coveted spot training under Dr. Edward Harmon (Bill Camp)\, a legendary heart transplant surgeon who’s obsessed with protecting his perfect reputation. \n\n\n\n“Medical students everywhere will likely feel vindicated at how their vocations’ unique struggles are rendered with uncomfortable accuracy” in Transplant\, commends the Chicago Reader. Park’s medical thriller is “a meet cute between Whiplash and Grey’s Anatomy\,” writes RogerEbert.com. \n\n\n\n“The film lands the former’s nose-to-the-grindstone protege\, but graciously lacks the melodrama of the latter. … Park’s crowning achievement in Transplant is his ability to craft a diverse\, but balanced tone throughout the story. “ \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for Transplant\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor Worse\n\n\n\nNR | 1h 30min | Romantic Comedy \n\n\n\nDirector: Amy Landecker \n\n\n\nStars: Amy Landecker\, Bradley Whitford\, Nico Hiraga \n\n\n\nSunday\, Nov. 16 @ 3 P.M.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFor Worse is a new rom com from writer-director Amy Landecker\, who is mostly known for her acting work in projects such as the Coen Brothers’ dramedy A Serious Man and the Prime Video series Transparent.

The Tallest Dwarf  “shows the power of body acceptance” in any community\, proclaims Forbes. \n\n\n\n“In the film\, Wyman explores the diverse experiences of LPs through both in-depth interviews and movement-based workshops captured on film. The Tallest Dwarf asks the viewer to consider important questions\, like\, ‘What if the culture created pathways for LPs to love and accept their bodies?'” \n\n\n\n\nTickets and Showtime for The Tallest Dwarf

SUMMARY:'Caregiving' with Ryan Shazier Fund
DESCRIPTION:Join former Steelers linebacker Ryan Shazier for an exclusive ‘Caregiving’ screening!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuy Tickets Here!\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nThe Lindsay has partnered with WQED and the Ryan Shazier Fund for Spinal Rehabilitation to bring back Caregiving during National Family Caregivers Month. \n\n\n\nThe PBS documentary Caregiving returns to The Lindsay on Wednesday\, Nov. 19\, at 7 p.m. We will show the full-length version of director Chris Durrance’s inspirational film.  \n\n\n\nThis event will also include a 6:30 p.m. reception in The Lindsay’s Community Room\, sponsored by the Richard King Mellon Foundation. Shazier\, a former Steelers linebacker\, will attend the reception and introduce the screening. Tickets are available for $8.75. \n\n\n\nThis Caregiving screening was conceived as an evening of warmth\, camaraderie and recognition for all caregivers. Shazier and members of his organization will be on hand to thank caregivers for their amazing work and dedication. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nCaregiving was produced by Bradley Cooper\, who also appears in the film\, and narrated by Emmy winner Uzo Aduba. Both acclaimed actors have served as caregivers for a sick parent. Caregiving highlights the many challenges and triumphs that those caring for a sick parent or loved one experience every day. \n\n\n\nSome of the caregivers featured in this film include a young father caring for both his wife and son; a 14-year-old who\, along with his father\, shares the role of caregiver for his mom; and a young woman looking after her dementia-stricken father. \n\n\n\nShazier is an Ohio State University graduate who the Steelers picked 15th overall in the 2014 NFL Draft. He made two Pro Bowls with the Steelers\, but his career was abruptly ended after suffering a spinal contusion during a game in December 2017. Shazier officially retired from the NFL in September 2020. \n\n\n\nAfter 130 spinal rehabilitation sessions\, Shazier not only gained back the strength to walk\, but he was able to dance with his wife at their wedding. He founded the Shazier Fund in November 2020. Shazier currently serves as the president and board chairman for this nonprofit dedicated to ensuring SCI (spinal cord injury) patients have access to the treatments they need.
