21:20. Drama, Comedy. USA 2018, 90 min. Directed by Wayne Roberts. Starring: Johnny Depp, Rosemarie DeWitt, Odessa Young, Danny Huston, Zoey Deutch. In English with Russian subtitles. Richard, a literature professor at a university, finds out that he is terminally ill. He only has half a year left to live. That’s when the strict teacher goes all-out, deciding to permit himself everything that had previously been forbidden. Weed, alcohol, one-night stands, and most importantly, the ability to speak the truth to people’s faces and not fit into the generally accepted rules: all of these become his new favorite pastimes. Richard’s joyous crusade against authority and hypocrisy gives his wife a shock and is met with shouts of joy by his students.

19:00. Exhibition film. UK 2017, 91 min. In English with Russian subtitles. To coincide with a glorious new exhibition at the National Gallery of London, this film offers a full and fresh biography of Michelangelo who, with Leonardo, is considered one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance – and perhaps of all time. This film explores his relationship with his contemporaries and his immense artistic practice that included painting, sculpture and architecture. Among the works explored are the universally adored David in Florence, the Sistine Chapel in Rome and the Manchester Madonna (today at the National Gallery).This major new film goes to the heart of just who was this tempestuous, passionate giant of art history.
