For a special pre-movie night movie session, we will be showing In Bruges.

Start time will be 5PM Eastern US Time

** In Bruges (2008)**: Irish hit man botches his first job. He and his mentor are sent to lay low in the small fairy-tale town of Bruges til it blows over. Shenanigans, existential angst, drugs, violence, and a whole lot of Colin Ferrel looking very sad ensue.

On a personal note I think this is the funniest serious movie I know of.

Content Warnings:

• Trauma to an eyeball
• Death of a child on screen
• Murders
• Several scenes of gore, quite graphic.
• main characters die bloodily on screen.
• Depression
• Suicidal ideation
• Suicide attempt
• Suicide depicted.
• Misogyny, threats of domestic violence
• Alcoholism
• Fatness as the butt of jokes
• reference to child molestation
• Sex pestery passed off as lads being lads — repeated attempts to flirt despite a clear “no”
• Sex depicted and referred to.
• Depictions of sex work
• Lots of drug use shown on screen
• Sexual assault mentioned, discussed, implied
• Disrespectful language for sex workers.
• Slurs for little people
• Racism
• Ambiguous ending -- is it happy? Is it sad? Both? Neither? I have my opinions but it's unclear.
