TEXAS THEATRE: This is where I will be Friday night. Alejandro Jodorowsky is now famous thanks to the documentary depicting his failed adaptation of Dune. Now, we have his first feature in 22 years with LA DANZA DE REALIDAD, which I understand is a surreal autobiography. At 9:45pm, they will be screening PING PONG SUMMER, about a ping pong tournament in 1985.

Monday, June 9th
ALAMO DRAFTHOUSE: Yet another installment of the AGFA secret screening series. It starts at 7:45pm, and as always unless you're looking at the Alamo's twitter account for hints, it will be a complete surprise.
