Take a seat on the stone amphitheater steps (we'll provide cushions and blankets on a first-come, first-served basis), or feel free to bring your own folding chairs for added comfort.
Treat yourself to some homemade popcorn and explore our thematic bar featuring creative cocktails inspired by the movie's themes and motifs.
Coffee and Cigarettes (2003) is an independent anthology film written and directed by Jim Jarmusch. Composed of 11 vignettes, it explores comedic and sometimes depressed themes connected by the shared ritual of coffee and cigarettes. Featuring well-known actors and artists playing themselves or variations thereof, the film highlights the nuances and subtle hostilities within ordinary conversations.
Coffee and Cigarettes is significant for its minimalist, character-driven approach that captures everyday human interactions with wit and depth.
