On Thursday, The Brattle Theatre presents a free 4K screening of Robin Hardy’s “The Wicker Man” (1973), featuring one of the greatest fringe sects ever committed to screen.

“The President’s Wife” opens with a literal Greek chorus – or, at least, a French choir – filling us in on the biographical details of real-life former French first lady Bernadette Chirac, before warning us that the film we are about to see is a work of fiction.

FYI, planning on posting here even less, for, uh, reasons. Find me below— there’s a bunch of us now!
Periodic reminder that I’m much more active these days at the other place (the one that rhymes with “Juice Guy”). Same username, plus the usual stuff afterwards— if we’re not connected there yet, hit me up!
