[JUMP TO FILMS]

Dear Laemmle Fans,

Exactly seven months have passed since the first case of Coronavirus was identified in the United States, and it's become harder to remember what life was like back then. We've done our best since to keep bringing you new arthouse cinema every week, but I can't say I don't miss the big screen. If only there was a way to download the smell of hot buttered popcorn (pick-up concessions coming soon)...Today's new releases include documentaries Desert One, about the U.S. Government's failed 1980 attempt to end the Iranian hostage crisis, and Love Express, about the little-known-career of visionary Polish director Walerian Borwczyk. There's also a variety of foreign-language narrative films, including The August Virgin from Spain, Watch List from the Philippines, African Violet from Iran, and three new titles presented by the French Institute Alliance Francaise.All the best,Greg Laemmle...............................................................Laemmle Virtual CinemaNew Releases for August 21 • Click posters for "Watch Now" instructions.
