TRAILER & TICKETS <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/pavarotti/> <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/deconstructing-the-beatles-abbey-road-side-one/> *Deconstructing The Beatles' Abbey Road Side One June 27 | 1:30pm & 6:45pm* NR. 1hr 30min Abbey Road was the last time that the Beatles recorded together at EMI Studios—soon-to-be-christened Abbey Road Studios after the album’s release. Despite the bittersweet atmosphere that surrounded the recording sessions, The Beatles’ outstanding songs and performances together with George Martin’s orchestrations produced an album that continues to be regarded as one of the best albums ever created. In *Deconstructing Abbey Road*, Beatleologist Scott Freiman has created one of his most in-depth “deconstructions.” Freiman takes the audience on a journey track-by-track explaining the inspiration for the songs and their evolution in the studio. *Side Two <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/deconstructing-the-beatles-abbey-road-side-two/> plays August 14 | 1:30pm & 6:45pm* TRAILER & TICKETS <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/deconstructing-the-beatles-abbey-road-side-one/> <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/yesterday/> *Yesterday | Directed by Danny Boyle Starring Himesh Patel, Lily James, Kate McKinnon Opens Friday, June 28* PG-13. 1hr 56min Jack Malik is a struggling singer-songwriter in a tiny English seaside town whose dreams of fame are rapidly fading, despite the fierce devotion and support of his childhood best friend, Ellie. Then, after a freak bus accident during a mysterious global blackout, Jack wakes up to discover that The Beatles have never existed... and he finds himself with a very complicated problem, indeed. "*A glowing tribute to The Beatles and their music, this is both a toe-tapping pleasure to watch and a smart, occasionally scathing look at how we get things wrong.*" — Helen O'Hara, Empire Magazine TRAILER & TICKETS <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/yesterday/> <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/the-hunger/> *The Hunger | R. 1hr 37min July 20 | 11:00pm Pride Film Series | Weird Elephant Series* David Bowie as a vampire is reason enough for *The Hunger* to make our music films shortlist. Further: the film's got a storied impact on goth music and subculture <https://www.rebelsmarket.com/blog/posts/the-hunger-bauhaus-bowie-and-vampires> : "The opening shot of *The Hunger* is of Bauhaus’ frontman, Peter Murphy, performing behind a cage. It begins with the subtle drum tapping intro of 'Bela Lugosi’s Dead' then builds into the screeching guitar as Murphy appears out of the shadows. Murphy, looking much like a vampire himself, writhes and twitches to the music, maniacally moving in and out of the harsh lighting. This performance by Bauhaus in particular is moody, dark, suspenseful and would end up being one of their last—they broke up soon after. It’s an iconic moment in vampire film history as Miriam and John stalk their prey to the soundtrack of goth royalty. With the song’s distinct lyrics, it hints as to what happens next in the movie: *The bats have left the bell tower / The victims have been bled.*" TRAILER & TICKETS <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/the-hunger/> <https://www.grandcinema.com/films/grateful-dead-meet-up-2019/> *GRATEFUL DEAD MEET-UP 2019 | NR. 2hr August 1 | 7:00pm* The never-before-seen complete June 17, 1991 concert from Giants Stadium is finally on the big screen! Widely considered one of the greatest shows of the band's final decade of performing, it sounds unlike any Dead show you've ever heard, as it was one of only two recorded on 48-track. Mixed by Jeffrey Norman in glorious surround sound with video from the multi-camera live edit, this will be something to behold. Did someone say tie-dye? It was us… we said tie-dye. Details to come! AND, the day before (7/31) at 8pm: Grateful Shred plays Fawcett Hall at Alma Mater <https://www.almamatertacoma.com/>!
