Our annual screenings of the British Arrows Awards (formerly known as the British Television Advertising Awards) have become one of YBCA’s most popular programs. And for good reason — these sly, sexy, sometimes hilarious and sometimes somber British commercials, PSAs, and (new this year!) social networking experiments have a wild creativity generally lacking in our own homegrown efforts. If our commercials were this inventive, we’d have no desire to fast-forward through them. Sincere thanks to Dean Otto, Walker Art Center. (2011, 75 min, digital)

The longest-running midnight movie of all time stars Tim Curry as the kinky yet endearing “transsexual from Transylvania” Dr. Frank N. Furter, Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick as his hapless guests Brad and Janet, Meat Loaf as motorcycle-riding rough trade and author Richard O’Brien as the hunchbacked butler Riff Raff. It’s harmless musical fun—a delightful spoof of Hollywood horror movies and Old Dark House melodramas. All of our engagements feature live casts who perform scenes during the movie, and the audience is always welcome to respond to the on-screen action. The Rocky Horror Picture was the first—and is still the best—interactive movie experience!

The husband-and-wife team of Charles and Ray Eames are widely regarded as America’s most important designers. Perhaps best remembered for their mid-century plywood and fiberglass furniture, the Eames Office also created a mind-bending variety of other products, from splints for wounded military during World War II, to photography, interiors, multi-media exhibits, graphics, games, films and toys. But their personal lives and influence on significant events in American life – from the development of modernism, to the rise of the computer age – has been less widely understood. Narrated by James Franco, Eames: The Architect and the Painter is the first film since their death dedicated to these creative geniuses and their work. Plus, former editor-in-chief of Dwell, Sam Grawe, provides an intro before the show.

As the film depicts friendships and relationships in the lives of its five major characters, it raises life's real and most-asked question: "Can you really trust anyone?" A midnight cult sensation, this quirky black comedy has been running for over 6 years in Los Angeles and is ready to take the rest of the country by storm. You'll want to be there for the devastation it will leave in its wake!

One Week Only! Make sure to catch The Conquest in this exclusive engagement. The most hotly anticipated film at the Cannes Film Festival was The Conquest, the first French film ever made about the nation’s President while in power. A treat for political junkies, in the same mode as The Queen and Il Divo, as well as Oliver Stone’s W. “Politics gets personal in The Conquest, a vivid re-imagining of French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s rise to power and the simultaneous unraveling of his marriage. As the first French leader to divorce—and then remarry —while in office, Sarkozy’s real-life saga is the stuff of soap operas, and director Xavier durringer treats it as such, viewing the five years of political jockeying that preceded Sarkozy’s 2007 election through the lens of his relationship with then-wife, Cecilia.

"Think Global, Act Local" is a French documentary by Coline Serreau addressing the worldwide epidemic surrounding food. "Films full of warnings and disasters have been made and have served their purpose, but now it is time to show that solutions do exist," states Coline Serreau. "It is time to hear what farmers, philosophers and economists have to say. While explaining why our social model has got bogged down in the ecological, financial, and political crises that we all know about, these people invent and try out alternatives."
