Monday, September 9, 6:00 p.m. | Psst! Peer into the unknown, embrace the ambiguity, and show up to the Film Center for a screening that is entirely, absolutely, and completely to be announced—quite literally the moment the lights go down. Starting the week prior to each screening, we’ll drop hints via social media and on our website: year of release, runtime, genre, maybe even a cast member or two if we’re feeling generous. Feel free to guess, but we’re not telling, at least not until showtime. Feeling lucky? Drop your guess in our Mystery Movie Monday box at concessions. One right guesser will win a prize pack with two complimentary tickets plus popcorn and drink vouchers for your next visit to the Film Center. No refunds, no spoiling the surprise, and— hopefully—no booing. If it helps, the suspense is killing us, too! Past Mystery Movie Monday films include Jacques Tati's PLAYTIME (1967), Hirokazu Kore-eda's AFTER LIFE (1998), Donna Deitch's DESERT HEARTS (1985), and King Hu's DRAGON INN (1967).
