In the years to come, the band would go on to release eight more critically acclaimed studio albums, top the Billboard Bluegrass Chart four times, collaborate with the likes of Judy Collins, Sharon Van Etten, and Norwegian star Jonas Fjeld, earn two gold records in Norway, and share bills with everyone from Guy Clark to Steve Martin. NPR hailed the group as &#8220;a bridge between bluegrass traditions and a fresh interpretation of those influences,&#8221; while Uncut lauded their &#8220;powerful melodies and gorgeous harmonies,&#8221; and Pitchfork dubbed their music &#8220;timeless.&#8221;]]></description>

Moving between Michael Corleone&#8217;s tightening grip on the family empire and the early days of his father Vito&#8217;s rise from Sicilian immigrant to powerful crime boss, this sweeping sequel expands the saga in every direction. What begins as a story about family becomes something colder, lonelier, and far more dangerous. Widely considered one of the greatest sequels ever made, The Godfather Part II deepens the legacy with unforgettable performances, quiet betrayals, and the uneasy realization that power rarely comes without a cost.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Maslon House chronicles the life of the Maslon House, Richard Neutra&#8217;s residential masterpiece built in 1962 in Rancho MIrage, near Palm Springs, California. The house was commissioned by Luella and Sam Maslon, noted art collectors from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Maslons secured a lot on the 12th fairway at Tamarisk Country Club.&#160; Neutra designed a quintessential modern home with a flat roof with long overhangs, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and long gallery walls to house their significant collection.&#160; It was one of only three Neutra-designed homes in the Coachella Valley. In 2002, the house was destroyed by new owners, sparking international outrage and profoundly igniting preservation in the Palm Springs area for the future. You can watch the trailer here.&#160;Q&#38;A before the show with producer Scott Goldstein.&#160;Curating Modernism covers a familiar story. We all know that 20th-century Modernist architecture in the United States is at risk. Modernist structures are frequently dismissed as disposable, and many architecturally significant examples have been demolished to make way for redevelopment or altered so extensively that their original character is lost. Produced by Jake Gorst, prolific producer and director of architecture documentaries, the film answers the question why midcentury Modernist architecture be preserved and how can this be achieved in 2025.

But his story goes much deeper than that. He was an American maverick, constantly creating his own opportunities, reinventing himself many times over, and was well known for embellishing the details of his extraordinary life. Separating fact from exaggeration to finally tell his fascinating story: a youth spent in Jamaica, running rum during prohibition, hunting down cigars and liquor for troops in World War II, and bringing the first commercial lūau to Hawai&#8216;i. You can watch the trailer here.&#160;The band Vibexotica will be playing Tiki bar tunes before the movie, and there will be a Q&#38;A before the show with producer Max Well. Tiki drinks will, of course, be available for sale in the bar!]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Before Instagram, before Architectural Digest spreads became a personality trait, there was Julius Shulman, the photographer who quite literally taught the world how to see modern architecture. Narrated by Dustin Hoffman, Visual Acoustics is a lively and unexpectedly charming documentary about the man behind the iconic images of mid-century modern design. Shulman&#8217;s photographs didn&#8217;t just document buildings, they helped launch the careers of architects like Richard Neutra, John Lautner, and even Frank Gehry, while turning glass-walled hillside homes into symbols of an entire California dream. Director Eric Bricker&#8217;s film is part art history, part biography, and part love letter to creativity itself, revealing how one charismatic, endlessly curious photographer reshaped public taste and made modernism feel human, glamorous, and accessible. Through interviews, archival footage, and Shulman&#8217;s unforgettable images, Visual Acoustics shows how a still photograph can create a whole lifestyle and why we&#8217;re still living in the visual world he invented. A perfect pick for architecture buffs, design nerds, photographers, and anyone who has ever fallen in love with a beautiful space.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Few films capture the power of doing the right thing quite like To Kill a Mockingbird. Set in a small Alabama town during the Great Depression, the story follows young Scout Finch as she watches her father&#8212;quiet, steady lawyer Atticus Finch&#8212;defend a Black man falsely accused of a terrible crime. Through her eyes, the world&#8217;s injustices come into focus, along with the courage it takes to stand against them. Anchored by Gregory Peck&#8217;s unforgettable, Oscar-winning performance, this landmark film is equal parts courtroom drama, coming-of-age story, and timeless reminder that integrity sometimes means standing alone.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[This is the one where the war gets stranger the deeper you go. In Apocalypse Now, a burned-out Army captain is sent upriver into the heart of Vietnam on a mission as murky as the jungle itself: find a rogue colonel who has gone completely off the grid...and quietly end his command. The journey that follows grows increasingly surreal, violent, and hypnotic, revealing a war where the line between order and madness has long since disappeared. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola and powered by unforgettable performances from Marlin Brando, Martin Sheen, and Robert Duvall, Apocalypse Now is more than just a war movie. It&#8217;s a descent into the chaos of conflict, ego, and the darkness waiting at the end of the river.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Before the remake, there was the original swagger. In the 1969 classic True Grit, a determined young girl hires the meanest, toughest, most gloriously disreputable U.S. Marshal she can find&#8212;Rooster Cogburn&#8212;to track down the outlaw who killed her father. What she gets is a one-eyed lawman with a taste for whiskey, a questionable moral compass, and just enough grit to get the job done. Led by an Oscar-winning performance from John Wayne, this is frontier justice the old-fashioned way: dusty trails, sharp dialogue, and a hero who may not be pretty, polite, or sober&#8212;but he&#8217;s exactly the man you want riding shotgun when things get dangerous.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[In The Apostle, faith isn&#8217;t neat, quiet, or polite. It&#8217;s loud, messy, and burning with conviction. After his life explodes in spectacular fashion, a fiery Southern preacher goes on the run, reinvents himself in a small Louisiana town, and sets out to build a new church from the ground up. What follows is a deeply human story about redemption, belief, and the complicated people who keep showing up every Sunday. Funny, raw, and full of gospel-soaked energy, The Apostle is a rare film about faith that feels lived-in rather than preached, proof that sometimes the road to grace runs straight through trouble.]]></description>
