David Gonzalez from The Cinematic Reef says, ” It was hard not to be excited for Schwartzman’s next film, The Good Half. With that expectation came a film that went toe-to-toe with an incredibly moving tale of grief, mourning, and guilt over the inability to say goodbye.”

Screening times are 5 pm on Fri (Aug 23), 2 pm on Sun (Aug 25), and 5 pm on Thu (Aug 29). Admission is $9 for members, $11.50 for general audiences and $5 for students (student tickets available only at the theater box office).
