Paired with our take on a White Russian\, made with sake instead of vodka\, The Big Lebowski is a memorable holiday experience with a uniquely Portland twist. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Coen Brothers\n Year: 1998\n Country: USA\n Runtime: 117 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/the-big-lebowski-3/ CATEGORIES:film ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/big-lebowski.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20221228T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20221228T220000 DTSTAMP:20260501T002357 CREATED:20221202T235949Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221202T235950Z UID:10000708-1672257600-1672264800@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Church of Film: Carnival Night DESCRIPTION:The youthful members of a Soviet House of Culture are preparing a magical New Years Eve party\, with a masquerade and a variety show full of song\, dance\, and performance. However\, their director dies and is replaced at the last minute by the glowering apparatchik Comrade Ogurtsov… and he doesn’t like any of it. But the show must go on\, and the kids resolve to run the party as planned—with or without Ogurtsov’s approval. \n\n\n\nCARNIVAL NIGHT is a warm\, jazzy spectacle and comedy that ushered in the post-Stalin period by taking satirical stabs at grey-faced\, finger wagging Party functionaries\, and giving a generous bow to the new generation.

The roots of Iran’s volatile relationship with Britain and America have never been so forensically and dramatically exposed. \n\n\n\nCOUP 53 is a politically explosive and cinematically innovative documentary that grips like a thriller. \n\n\n\n \n Director: Taghi Amirani\n Year: 2019\n Country: United Kingdom\n Runtime: 118 minutes URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/coup-53/ CATEGORIES:film ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/coup-53.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20221231T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20221231T210000 DTSTAMP:20260501T002357 CREATED:20221201T051214Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221213T031553Z UID:10000703-1672513200-1672520400@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Samurai Cop DESCRIPTION:Prepare to question everything you thought you knew about roundhouse kicks\, thongs\, and katana beheadings. Joe (Matt Hannon\, Sylvester Stallone’s one-time bodyguard) is the Samurai Cop\, a rock of a man who will do literally whatever it takes to punish criminals—even if that means taking dozens of innocent lives in the process. \n\n\n\nTeamed with a truly hilarious partner (Mark Frazer)\, Joe embarks on a mindmelting sex-and-violence-fueled adventure against evil ninjas\, drug dealers\, and genre legend Robert Z’Dar! \n\n\n\nDirected by prolific Iranian ex-pat Amir Shervan\, the reckless and outrageous SAMURAI COP is a true treasure of the trash-action pantheon. \n\n\n\nFree screening!
