“Klimt & Schiele: Eros & Psyche” - Recounts the start of the Vienna Secession, a magical art movement formed in the late 1890's for art, literature and music, in which new ideas are circulated, Freud discovers the drives of the psyche, and women begin to claim their independence. It was a movement that marked a new era outside the confines of academic tradition. At the heart of Secession were artists Gustav Klimt and his protégé and dear friend Egon Schiele. This exhibition proves an in-depth examination of images of extraordinary visual power: from the eroticism of Klimt's mosaic-like works, to the anguished and raw work of the young Schiele in his magnetic nudes and contorted figures against the backdrop of nocturnal Vienna, full of masked balls and dreams imbued with sexuality. (1 hour, 30 minutes) Playing Friday, April 19 at 2 p.m. Tickets: $15/adult; $13/members; $5/youth 18 and under. 

“Gloria Bell” -  Gloria (Julianne Moore) is a free-spirited divorcée who spends her days at a straight-laced office job and her nights on the dance floor, joyfully letting loose at clubs around Los Angeles. After meeting Arnold (John Turturro) on a night out, she finds herself thrust into an unexpected new romance, filled with both the joys of budding love and the complications of dating, identity and family. From Academy Award-winning director Sebastián Lelio (A Fantastic Woman, Disobedience) comes a sophisticated romantic comedy that shows love can strike at any time, relationships are never simple, and nothing can get you down as long as you keep dancing. (R; 1 hour, 42 minutes) Playing at 7 p.m. Friday, April 19, Saturday April 20, and Wednesday, April 24; plays at 2 and 7 p.m. Sunday, April 21 and Thursday, April 25.

(PG; 2 hours, 41 minutes) Playing at 10 a.m.  Saturday, April 20.  Free event.

“Rembrandt” - Exhibition on Screen - From the National Gallery, London and Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, and back by popular demand! Every Rembrandt exhibition is eagerly anticipated but this major show hosted by London’s National Gallery and Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum was an event like no other. Given privileged access to both galleries the film documents this landmark exhibition, whilst interweaving Rembrandt’s life story, with behind-the-scenes preparations at these world-famous institutions. Exploring many of the exhibition’s key works, through contributions from specially invited guests including curators and leading art historians, this “Exhibition on Screen” favorite makes a welcome return to the big screen marking the 350th anniversary of Rembrandt's death. For many, Rembrandt is the greatest artist that ever lived and this deeply moving film seeks to explore the truth about the man behind the legend. (Encore; 1 hour, 30 minutes)  Plays Saturday, April 20 at 2 p.m. Tickets: $15/adult; $13/member; $5/youth 18 and under.
