  • Crosstown Arthouse presents Mirror

    Crosstown Theater 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    2K Restoration! From Janus: A senses-ravishing odyssey through the halls of time and memory, Andrei Tarkovsky’s sublime reflection on 20th century Russian history is as much a film as it is a poem composed in images, as much a work of cinema as it is a hypnagogic hallucination. In a richly textured collage of varying film stocks and newsreel footage, the recollections of a dying poet flash before our eyes, dreams mingling with scenes of childhood, wartime, and marriage, all imbued with the mystic power of a trance. Largely dismissed by Soviet critics upon its release due to its elusive narrative structure, Mirror has since taken its place as one of the titan director’s most renowned and influential works, a stunning personal statement from an artist transmitting his innermost thoughts and feelings directly from psyche to screen.

  • Joshua Espinoza Trio

    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    Possessing a wide color palette, the Joshua Espinoza Trio (Joshua Espinoza, Kris Monson, and Jaron Lamar Davis) explores shimmering harmonies and shifting orchestral contours with the aesthetic of a chamber ensemble as much as a jazz trio. Influenced by artists as disparate as Herbie Hancock, bassist Avishai Cohen, Gerald Clayton, and composer Maurice Ravel, the Joshua Espinoza Trio takes listeners on a journey for the ears and the mind. Through their genre-bending approach to songwriting, they've built a cross-generational audience of diverse backgrounds bound together by their love of good music. Their debut album "Journey Into Night" was released in June 2019.

  • Crosstown Arthouse presents The Holy Mountain

    Crosstown Theater 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    If you know, you know! Come see  The Holy Mountain on the Crosstown Theater’s giant screen in deep, full color!!!! From ABKCO: The scandal of the 1973 Cannes Film Festival, writer/director Alejandro Jodorowsky’s flood of sacrilegious imagery and existential symbolism in The Holy Mountain is a spiritual quest for enlightenment pitting illusion against truth. The Alchemist (Jodorowsky) assembles together a group of people from all walks of life to represent the planets in the solar system. The occult adept’s intention is to put his recruits through strange mystical rites and divest them of their worldly baggage before embarking on a trip to Lotus Island. There they ascend the Holy Mountain to displace the immortal gods who secretly rule the universe.
