The Egyptian Theatre is proud to collaborate with the Los Angeles Film Critics Association (LAFCA) on this monthly series, created in anticipation of LAFCA’s 50th anniversary celebration in 2025.  Beginning in January 2025, LAFCA and the Egyptian Theatre will host monthly screenings of films that have been honored by LAFCA since the organization’s founding in 1975. These events will feature special filmmaker guests, archival prints, and extended conversations. 

As a special preview to the 2025 series, we will close out 2024 with two truly remarkable evenings joined by master filmmakers: 
 

On December 4th, 2024, Michael Mann will appear at the Egyptian to screen a double feature of The Insider (on 35mm) and Heat (4K Restoration), and will join The New Yorker’s Justin Chang for a conversation between the films. 

And on December 9th, 2024, Todd Haynes will be at the Egyptian for a double feature of Safe and Carol, both screening in 35mm. Between films, Haynes will discuss his work with Joshua Rothkopf of the Los Angeles Times.

This is only the beginning of what’s sure to be a consistently spectacular series. Many more surprises are in store for 2025, so be sure to sign up for our Egyptian newsletter to be the first to know when tickets are on sale!
