PLAYING THIS WEEK<\/strong>
\n 3\/18\/16-3\/24\/16<\/strong><\/p>\n

FLICKER OF THE WEEK<\/strong><\/p>\n

Crack open the windows, soak in the non-seasonal temperatures, make some dinner, kick up the feet, and watch one of several award-winning films brand new to home video and VOD including THE BIG SHORT<\/strong> (Regency\/Paramount Home Entertainment<\/strong>), CAROL<\/strong> (The Weinstein Company\/Anchor Bay Entertainment<\/strong>), and BROOKLYN<\/strong> (Fox Searchlight Pictures\/20th Century Fox Home Entertainment<\/strong>). The locally lensed agri-thriller CONSUMED<\/strong> (Mister Lister Films\/MarVista Entertainment<\/strong>) also premieres via streaming next Tues., 3\/22<\/strong>. If you must leave the house for your \u201cFOW<\/strong>,\u201d great recommendations have trickled down the grapevine for the Academy Award<\/strong>-nominated EMBRACE OF THE SERPENT<\/strong> (Oscilloscope Laboratories<\/strong>) directed by Ciro Guerra<\/strong>, now entering its second week of play dates at the Art Theater Co-op<\/strong>. This striking black-and-white cautionary tale from Colombia<\/strong> depicts encounters over many years between explorers (Jan Bijvoet, Brionne Davis<\/strong>) and an indigenous shaman (Antonio Bol\u00edvar Salvador, Nilbio Torres<\/strong>) defying colonialism to keep his bloodline alive deep in the Amazon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
