A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jason Asbell. I only mention it 'cause some- times there's a man--I won't say a hee-ro, 'cause what's a hee-ro?--but sometimes there's a man. And I'm talkin' about Jason here-- sometimes there's a man who, wal, he's the man for his time'n place, he fits right in there--and that's Jason, the Programming Director of The Civic Theatre. . . sometimes there's a man. Wal, I lost m'train of thought here. But--aw hell, I done innerduced him enough.

Who likes the films being distributed by A24?  Good stuff right? Well due to a lack of much content right now and the fact that the beginning of the programming week a couple weeks from now is Feb 4th - 02/04 - A 2 4 opening, we were wondering if we should program a week of recent A24 highlights? 

Selections would include, an encore screening of Joel Coen’s, ‘The Tragedy of Macbeth’, Mike Mills’, ‘C’mon C’mon’, starring Oscar winning actor, Joaquin Phoenix, ‘Red Rocket’, from the amazing Sean Baker who brought us ‘Tangerine’ and ‘Florida Project’, and Joanna Hogg’s, ‘The Souvenir: Part II’, following up on her acclaimed ‘Souvenir’, which played at The Civic in 2019.


Help us decide. Let us know if this plan sounds good to you, if you think we should run this program and if you’d come out to see any of these offerings?  Watch the linked trailers and leave your comments below.


Your friend and devoted programmer, Jason Asbell.
