This week at the Lincoln Theater
“The Taste of Things” - (PG-13; 2 hours, 21 minutes - In French with English subtitles) - Cook Eugenie (Juliette Binoche) and her boss Dodin grow fond of one another over 20 years, and their romance gives rise to dishes that impress even the world’s most illustrious chefs. When Dodin is faced with Eugenie’s reluctance to commit, he begins to cook for her. Final showtime Thursday, March 14 at 2 p.m.
Exhibition on Screen: “Painting in the Modern Garden” - (1 hour, 30 minutes) - Claude Monet was an avid horticulturist and arguably the most important painter of gardens in the history of art, but he was not alone. Great artists like Van Gogh, Bonnard, Sorolla, Sargent, Pissarro, and Matisse all saw the garden as a powerful subject for their art. These great artists, along with many other famous names, feature in an innovative and extensive exhibition from the Royal Academy of Art, London. From the exhibition walls to the wonder and beauty of artists’ gardens like Giverny and Seebüll, the film takes a magical and widely travelled journey to discover how different contemporaries of Monet built and cultivated modern gardens to explore expressive motifs, abstract color, decorative design and utopian ideas. For lovers of art or lovers of gardens, this is an ideal film. Playing for two screenings only: Thursday, March 14 at 7 p.m. and Friday, March 15 at 2 p.m. Tickets: $15 adult, $13 members, $5 youth.
“All of Us Strangers” - (R; 1 hour, 45 minutes) - One night in his near-empty tower block in contemporary London, Adam (Andrew Scott) has a chance encounter with a mysterious neighbor Harry (Paul Mescal), which punctures the rhythm of his everyday life. As a relationship develops between them, Adam is preoccupied with memories of the past and finds himself drawn back to the suburban town where he grew up, and the childhood home where his parents (Claire Foy and Jamie Bell), appear to be living, just as they were on the day they died, 30 years before. Playing Friday, March 15 at 7 p.m., Saturday, March 16 at 2 and 7 p.m., Sunday, March 17 at 5 p.m., Wednesday, March 20 at 2 and 7 p.m. and Thursday, March 21 at 2 p.m.
National Theatre Live: “Vanya” - (R; 1 hour, 50 minutes) - Andrew Scott (Fleabag) brings multiple characters to life in Simon Stephens’ (“The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time”) radical new version of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya.
