NEVADA THEATRE 7/13: The Onyx Downtown at the Nevada Theatre is proud to present our third annual Studio Ghibli in July series, a celebration of the beloved Japanese animation studio’s greatest films for its 40th anniversary! Directed by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki, CASTLE IN THE SKY is a timeless story of courage and friendship. Young orphan Sheeta and her kidnapper, Col. Muska, are flying to a military prison when their plane is attacked by a gang of air pirates led by the matronly Dola. Escaping from a mid-air collision via a magic crystal around her neck, Sheeta meets fellow orphan Pazu and the pair join forces to discover the mystical floating city of Laputa while pursued by both Muska and the pirates, who lust for the city's myriad treasures. *All Ghibli films are shown in their English-dubbed versions.

SUNRISE CINEMA 8/9: Kurosawa Fest comes to The Onyx and The Onyx Downtown this summer, as we pay tribute to legendary director Akira Kurosawa with new restorations of some of his most celebrated epics! A riveting psychological thriller that investigates the nature of truth and the meaning of justice, RASHOMON is widely considered one of the greatest films ever made. Four people give different accounts of a man’s murder and the rape of his wife, which Kurosawa presents with striking imagery and an ingenious use of flashbacks. This eloquent masterwork and international sensation revolutionized film language and introduced Japanese cinema—and a commanding new star by the name of Toshiro Mifune—to the Western world. In Japanese w/ English subtitles.
