Here's the new Winter Term Program!
With a good bottle of wine as that became a habit we thought about what could fit in the fall and winter, cinematically speaking. The pondering came to an end, ans so came the wine bottle. We now hold in our hands a very nice program, with elegant density, spicy finish and, as always, the classic tingling cinema pleasure.
