SUMMARY:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents ALMA’S RAINBOW

Ayoka Chenzira’s feature film explores the life of teenager Rainbow Gold (Victoria Gabrielle Platt) who is entering womanhood and navigating conversations and experiences around standards of beauty\, self-image\, and the rights of Black women have over their bodies. Rainbow attends a strict parochial school\, studies dance\, and is just becoming aware of boys. She lives with her strait-laced mother Alma Gold ( Kim Weston-Moran)\, who runs a hair salon in the parlor of their home.  When Alma’s free-spirited sister Ruby (Mizan Kirby) arrives from Paris after a 10-year absence\, the sisters clash over what constitutes the “proper” direction Rainbow’s life should take. Alma has fooled herself into believing she has no need of male companionship and advises her to daughter to follow her example. Ruby encourages both her niece and her sister to embrace life — and love — fully and joyfully. Almas’s Rainbow highlights a multi-layered Black women’s world where characters live\, love\, and wrestle with what it means to exercise and exert their agency. \nThe Crosstown Arts Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground\, and documentary features.

SUMMARY:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13 at Crosstown Theater. \nJohn Carpenter / 1976 / 91 minutes / R \nThursday\, January 26\, 2023\nTickets: $5 at the door\nDoors at 6:30 p.m. | Films begin at 7:00 p.m. (sharp!) at Crosstown Theater \nNew 4k restoration!

SUMMARY:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents 3 WOMEN
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents 3 WOMEN at Crosstown Theater. \nRobert Altman / 1977 / 124 minutes / PG \nThursday\, January 19\, 2023\nTickets: $5 at the door\nDoors at 6:30 p.m. | Films begin at 7:00 p.m. (sharp!) at Crosstown Theater \nIn a dusty\, underpopulated California resort town\, a naive Southern waif\, Pinky Rose (Sissy Spacek)\, idolizes and befriends her fellow nurse\, the would-be sophisticate and “thoroughly modern” Millie Lammoreaux (Shelley Duvall). When Millie takes Pinky in as her roommate\, Pinky’s hero worship evolves into something far stranger and more sinister than either could have anticipated. Featuring brilliant performances from Spacek and Duvall\, this dreamlike masterpiece from Robert Altman careens from the humorous to the chilling to the surreal\, resulting in one of the most unusual and compelling films of the 1970s. \nThe Crosstown Arts Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground\, and documentary features.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series presents BRUCE LEE VS. SUPERMAN
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arts Film Series presents BRUCE LEE VS. SUPERMAN at Crosstown Theater. \nChia-Chun Wu / 1975 / 86 minutes / Rated R\nTickets: $5 at the door\nDoors at 6:30 p.m. | Films begin at 7:00 p.m. (sharp!) at Crosstown Theater \nAlong with THE DRAGON LIVES AGAIN\, BRUCE LEE VS. SUPERMAN is easily one of the most synapse-frying entries in the magical sub-genre known as Bruceploitation. Triad gangsters call Superman out of retirement to kidnap a scientist who solved the global food shortage crisis. Superman agrees to the deal in exchange for “money\, plenty of girls\, and booze.” The authorities enlist Kato (Bruce Li)\, the Green Hornet’s partner\, to help. Kato hires his friend Carter (also Bruce Lee)\, who looks\, dresses\, acts\, and wields nunchucks just like Bruce Lee. The result is total madness. A fascinating time capsule from the golden era of gonzo exploitation filmmaking\, BRUCE LEE VS. SUPERMAN has been preserved from the only known 35mm print in existence!  \nThe Crosstown Arts Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground\, and documentary features.

SUMMARY:Adam W. Sadberry: “Musical Journalism”
DESCRIPTION:Doors open at 7PM | Performance begins at 7:30PM \nTickets: $15 advance | $20 at the door ($5 student tickets available) \nPurchase tickets here \nThis is a concert inspired by Adam W. Sadberry’s late grandfather and unsung hero of the Civil Rights Movement\, L. Alex Wilson. Wilson’s work as an editor and journalist changed the world through covering pivotal Civil Rights events including the lynching of Emmett Till\, the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the desegregation of Central High School by the Little Rock 9\, the last of which played a part in Wilson’s transformation into a martyr. In this concert\, Adam intertwines articles that he collected from the archives of the Tri-State Defender\, Wilson’s newspaper in Memphis\, Tennessee\, with music that contextualizes the humanity and inhumanity of the stories. \nAdam will be joined on stage by pianist Dr. Artina McCain and clarinetist Dr. Andre Dyachenko. \nThis programming is made possible in part thanks to an Organizational Development Fund grant from New Music USA.

SUMMARY:Film Screening by Resident Artists R Jason Rawlings and Angelo Madsen Minax
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents NATIVES and NORTH BY CURRENT at Crosstown Theater. \nFree and open to the public\nDoors at 6:00 p.m.\, and films begin at 6:30 p.m. in Crosstown Theater. \nTwo films will be screened\, with a brief Q&A with the artists after the screening. \nIn Natives\, a short film by fall session artist in residence R Jason Rawlings\, two years after Hurricane Katrina\, a claims adjuster returns home to The Delta to little fanfare.   \nIn fall session artist in residence Angelo Madsen Minax’s feature-length film North by Current\, after the inconclusive death of his young niece\, the filmmaker returns to his rural Michigan hometown\, preparing to make a film about a broken criminal justice system. Instead\, he pivots to excavate the depths of generational addiction\, Christian fervor\, and trans embodiment. Lyrically assembled images\, decades of home movies\, and ethereal narration form an idiosyncratic and poetic undertow that guide a viewer through lifetimes and relationships. Like the relentless Michigan seasons\, the meaning of family shifts\, as Madsen\, his sister\, and his parents strive tirelessly to accept each other. Poised to incite more internal searching than provide clear statements or easy answers\, North by Current is a visual rumination on the understated relationships between mothers and children\, truths and myths\, losses and gains.

SUMMARY:Kafé Kirk featuring Kirk Whalum and Dave Koz
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, October 16\, 2022 at Crosstown Theater \n\n\n\n\n\nBox office opens at 5PM | Doors open at 5:30PM \nShow begins at 6PM \nTickets: General Admission $45 (plus fees) \nPURCHASE TICKETS HERE \nDAVE KOZ \nIn a recording career that spans nearly three decades\, saxophonist Dave Koz has racked up an astoundingly impressive array of honors and achievements: nine GRAMMY® nominations\, 11 No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Current Contemporary Jazz Albums chart\, numerous world tours\, 13 sold-out Dave Koz & Friends At Sea cruises\, performances for multiple U.S. presidents\, a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and appearances on a multitude of television shows\, including “Good Morning America\,” “The View\,” “The Tonight Show\,” “Entertainment Tonight” and more. A Platinum-selling artist\, Koz is also known as a humanitarian\, entrepreneur\, radio host and instrumental music advocate. \nKIRK WHALUM \nSoulful\, passionate\, stirring…these are the words most often used to describe Kirk’s music. Forged from his Memphis\, (TN) gospel roots and his 1980‘s initiation into the thriving Houston\, TX nightclub scene\, Kirk’s big\, rich tenor sound is unmistakably his. The 80’s were highlighted by Kirk’s stepping out of his blossoming sideman role and forming his own band. It was there that Kirk ultimately developed both his “voice” and songwriting in the crucible of the local club scene––especially at a rooftop club called Cody’s. It was also in Houston where jazz pianist Bob James “discovered” him and brought him on tour\, which led to five successful albums with Columbia Records\, including Cache\, Kirk’s first #1 album. As well\, Kirk and Bob received a Grammy nomination for their collaboration album\, Joined at the Hip. After moving to Los Angeles\, Kirk became an in demand session player for top artists like\, Barbara Streisand\, Al Jarreau\, Luther Vandross\, Larry Carlton\, Quincy Jones and most notably\, Whitney Houston\, amongst many others. It’s his sax heard on the mega-hit\, “I Will Always Love You.” Kirk soon followed that career high point with his phenomenal hit album released on Warner Bros. Records\, For You\, perhaps the most successful of over 25 solo recordings to date; others include his eclectic\, and much lauded\, Gospel According to Jazz series\, (Chapters 1\, 2\, 3 and 4). In addition to his many solo projects\, Kirk was also a member of the popular soul/jazz group\, BWB\, which features Kirk as the “W” of the group with Rick Braun (trumpet) and Norman Brown (guitar). \nKirk is the recipient of numerous awards and acknowledgements for his musical excellence including three Dove Award nominations\, an NAACP Image Award nomination and has won two Stellar Awards- Gospel music’s highest honor. A twelve time Grammy nominee\, Kirk won his first Grammy award (2011)for Best Gospel Song (“It’s What I Do”––featuring Lalah Hathaway) alongside life-long friend and gifted songwriter\, Jerry Peters.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: William Basinski
DESCRIPTION:UPDATE: We are sorry to announce that William Basinski at Crosstown Arts has been cancelled. Unfortunately\, through no fault of his\, William’s flight was cancelled and he is stuck in a city too far from Memphis to make the drive in time for the performance. William and his production crew tried to find alternatives\, but all possibilities were exhausted.

Employing obsolete technology and analogue tape loops\, his haunting and melancholy soundscapes explore the temporal nature of life and resound with the reverberations of memory and the mystery of time. \nHis epic 4-disc masterwork\, The Disintegration Loops received international critical acclaim and was chosen as one of the top 50 albums of 2004 by Pitchfork Media. The Temporary Residence deluxe LP box-set reissue from 2012 was awarded best re-issue of the year and a score of 10 on Pitchfork. Installations and films made in collaboration with artist-filmmaker\, James Elaine have been presented in festivals and museums internationally\, and his concerts are presented to sold out crowds around the world. \nBasinski was chosen by Music Director\, Antony Hegarty to create music for the Robert Wilson opera\, The Life and Death of Marina Abramovic which had its world premiere at the Manchester International Festival in July 2011 and toured Europe in 2012 and North America in 2013. Orchestral transcriptions of The Disintegration Loops by Maxim Moston have been performed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art\, Queen Elizabeth Hall and La Batie Festival in Geneva\, Switzerland\, Dark Mofo Festival in Hobart Tasmania and most recently Pitchfork Midwinter Festival with the Chicago Philharmonic. \nBasinski is currently touring the world in support of his latest work\, “On Time Out of Time” which was released on March 8th\, 2019 on Temporary Residence/2062/USA.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arthouse presents SPIDER BABY
DESCRIPTION:The Crosstown Arthouse Film Series presents SPIDER BABY at Crosstown Theater. \nJack Hill / 1967 / 81 minutes / N/R\nTickets: $5 at the door\nFilms begin at 7:30 pm (sharp!) at Crosstown Theater \nThe first solo feature from exploitation legend Jack Hill (Foxy Brown)\, Spider Baby remains one of the wildest and weirdest horror films of the 1960s. The credits dub this “the maddest story ever told\,” a promise that’s well on the way to being fulfilled in the opening scene alone\, when Virginia traps and kills a hapless deliveryman in her makeshift web. She’s one of three siblings\, including Sid Haig\, who suffer from a unique genetic disorder that causes them to regress back to childhood while retaining the physical strength and sexual maturity of adults. Lon Chaney Jr. (The Wolf Man) gives one of his most memorable late performances as Bruno\, who manages to cover up the crimes of the “kids” until two distant relatives lay claim to their house. Blending elements of gothic horror and gallows humor\, Spider Baby drops somewhere between The Addams Family and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.  \nThe Crosstown Arthouse Film Series showcases a diverse collection of independent\, international\, historically significant\, artistic\, experimental\, cult\, underground and documentary features.
