Date Night Picks

Claire Foy is luminous as Helen, who after losing her beloved father finds an unlikely lifeline in a stubborn hawk named Mabel. It's a quietly moving drama, with Brendan Gleeson lending warmth, about how we heal and rediscover the beauty of being alive. Bring some tissues and expect a long, tender conversation afterward.

Sofia Coppola's Lost in Translation is the quintessential date film: dreamy, wistful, and aching with unspoken feeling as Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson drift toward each other in a neon-lit Tokyo. Rapturously reviewed (95% from critics), it's the kind of film that lingers long after the lights come up. Screenings are very limited this week, essentially one night only, so grab this one while you can.
