Babis Makridis\, 2018\, 97 mins. DCP. With Yannis Drakopoulos \, Evi Saoulidou. Bathed in bright sunlight and rooted in the classic aust erity of its controlled compositions\, Babis Makridis’s deadpan wonder Pit y draws a clear line between the pathos of Greek tragedy and the deliberat e weirdness of the New Greek Cinema. In a beautifully modulated performanc e\, Yannis Drakopoulos is a lawyer whose young wife is in a coma. Soon\, h e becomes addicted to his own sorrow\, and cannot even tolerate the upbeat melodies of his son’s piano. At turns absurdist and comic\, Pity\, which was co-written with Yorgos Lanthimos’s frequent writing partner Efthimis F ilippou\, is an oddly emotional experience that asks the audience to quest ion the performative nature of emotion—in movies and in life. \n \n \n Tic kets: $15 ($11 seniors and students / $9 youth (ages 3–17) / free for chil dren under 3 and Museum members at the Film Lover and Kids Premium levels and above).
