Though all films at Cornell Cinema are “Worth A Watch”, our fall series aims to help you discover a new favorite film (and avoid endless doom scrolling through streaming services) by showcasing some of the most compelling and critically acclaimed recent releases, focusing primarily on international features, independent films, and recent Hollywood hits.

Don’t miss this year’s Sundance Shorts program, Celine Song’s moving Past Lives, the dark comedy Sick of Myself, and Jerzy Skolimowski’s Oscar-nominated EO—plus the chance to catch “Barbenheimer” and Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City on the big screen!
