A FEW CAN'T MISS OPTIONS FOR TODAY:

FIRST REFORMED | 113 Minutes Some have called Ethan Hawke's performance here the finest of his career, as he portrays a conflicted chaplain struggling with his faith as he encounters a series of difficult situations.

I AM NOT A WITCH | 93 Minutes - The multiple BAFTA nominee arrives stateside with a powerful story of a 9-year-old Zambian girl kept in a "witch camp" following an accident.

MAKING THE GRADE | 96 Minutes From Ireland, this documentary showcases the rigorous exams that piano students take and the relationships they make with their teachers.

MOUNTAIN | 74 Minutes - Stunning visuals, Willem Dafoe's poetic narration, and the Australian Chamber Orchestra's outstanding score give us an essay on people's fascinations with conquering mountains.

STREAKER | 93 Minutes This absurd comedy from Switzerland tells the story of a part-time teacher and barber who create a team of streakers to interrupt soccer matches, and create a betting ring - not on the teams, but on how long the streakers can stay on the field. 

THREE IDENTICAL STRANGERS | 98 Minutes - An extraordinary true story of three triplets who discover they were separated at birth, while in college in 1980. And that is only the beginning of the story.
