Knives Out
21:50. Thriller, Drama, Comedy, Crime. USA 2019, 130 min. Directed by Rian Johnson. Starring: Daniel Craig, Jamie Lee Curtis, Toni Collette, Chris Evans, Don Johnson, Michael Shannon, Ana de Armas, Christopher Plummer. In English with Russian subtitles. A clever contemporary interpretation of a classic detective story in the style of Agatha Christie. The family of a famous detective story author, Harlan Thrombey, gathers together in his house to celebrate the patriarch’s 85th birthday. But in the morning, they find him dead—someone’s stuck a knife in the old man’s throat. The police are joined in the mansion by the curious and gallant detective Benoit Blanc, hired by a family member who preferred to remain unknown but is nevertheless eager to find the truth. Benoit must separate false traces from real ones and untangle a twisted mass of lies in order to find the murderer among all of the deceased writer’s family members and servants: after all, each of them has something to hide.

The Tramp is working on the conveyer belt in a huge factory, and the monotonous work is literally driving him crazy: he winds up in a psychiatric hospital. As he leaves, he looks for a new job, but he is accidentally taken for a Communist agitator and put in jail. Upon his release, the Tramp meets a young orphan girl and becomes her friend and guardian. Together, they try to set themselves up in the tough contemporary world: sometimes, successfully, and other times not. However, the Tramp never loses his strength of spirit, and have survived a multitude of funny adventures, he and the girl ultimately set off on a new road, off into the sunset.

Theatre HD Live in Cinema: The Nutcracker
18:00. Ballet in two acts to music by Pyotr Tchaikovsky. 135 min (with one intermission). Libretto by Yuri Grigorovich. Choreographer: Yuri Grigorovich. One of the peaks of Tchaikovsky’s work and the quintessence of his style, The Nutcracker explicitly shows the composer’s approach to the genre. Mostly thanks to Tchaikovsky and Petipa ballet acquired single dramaturgy like symphony music, based on the contrast and interaction of the main themes and images. In over 120 years The Nutcracker has been staged in many great theatres and by many great choreographers. “The brilliant symphony of childhood” (Boris Asaev), The Nutcracker is still one of the most beautiful music fairy tales about good overpowering evil.
