When indies attack

Join CineVerse on January 4 for the kickoff of a new occasional series: Quick Theme Quartet. Once a quarter (every third month) in 2017, CineVerse will explore four movies tied together by a theme. Our first quartet is Fresh-Faced American Independents, which will focus on four talented directors who changed the face of American independent cinema in the 1980s and 1990s. Part 1: “Stranger Than Paradise” (1984; 89 minutes), directed by Jim Jarmusch, chosen by Dave Ries. Plus: Stick around for a trailer reel featuring various works by Jarmusch.
