Tivoli KC

After the global success of his Un Certain Regard winner RAMS, director Grímur Hákonarson returns to his native Iceland with another humanist farmland fable. Bitterly funny and deeply affecting, THE COUNTY plays out a timely political allegory against a jaw-dropping natural landscape, aided by a brainy, tenacious anti-heroine and Hákonarson’s dry Nordic humor.

HAPPY TOGETHER Watch now! Winner of Best Director at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival. The original title of HAPPY TOGETHER, Chun gwong cha sit, is an idiom that means a glimpse of something intimate (literally, spring light at first glance). Setting out to depict the dynamics of a queer relationship with empathy and complexity on the cusp of the 1997 handover of Hong Kongwhen the country’s LGBT community suddenly faced an uncertain futureWong crafts a feverish look at t...he life cycle of a love affair that is by turns devastating and deliriously romantic. Shot by ace cinematographer Christopher Doyle in both luminous monochrome and luscious saturated color, HAPPY TOGETHER is an intoxicating exploration of displacement and desire that swoons with the ache and exhilaration of love at its heart-tearing extremes. #happytogether #wongkarwai #worldofwongkarwai #hongkong #lgbtqpride #LGBTQIA #lgbtqrights #lgbtqcommunity #queer #virtual #virtualtheater #virtualcinema #auteurs #director #retrospective #tivolikc #nelsonatkins #kansascity #kcmo #filmkc #kcfilm #indiefilm #indiefilmmaking #cannesfilmfestival #bestdirector #winner

CHUNGKING EXPRESS Opens Friday When Wong Kar Wai was five years old, his father found a job managing a nightclub located in the basement of Chungking Mansions.

Anything goes in Wong’s gloriously shot and utt...erly unexpected charmer, which cemented the sex appeal of its gorgeous stars and forever turned canned pineapple and the Mamas and the Papas’ California Dreamin’ into tokens of romantic longing. #WongKarWai #JanusFilms #ChristopherDoyle #worldofwongkarwai #tonyleung #maggiecheung #ChungkingExpress #Chungking #auteurs #director #directorscut #retrospective #4k #restoration #4Krestoration #virtual #virtualcinema #virtualfilm #indiefilm #indiefilmmaking #nelsonatkins #tivolikc ##kansascity #kcmo #filmkc #kcfilm The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art Janus Films
