Films to Make You Feel Some Type of Way: Holiday Edition
Recommended
For the last few Saturdays, Southeast Portland's New Agey community center, the Breathe Building, has played host to a series of indoor, picnic-style film screenings. You can bring your own snacks, or grab Burmese bites from Rangoon Bistro; the cinema selections have focused on "fractured families," which feels like the perfect catharsis for the familial challenges that come along with this season. The series closes out on December 9 with Ingmar Bergman's Fanny and Alexander, a Criterion fave that follows a bourgeois family in turn-of-the-twentieth-century Sweden, beginning with a Nativity play and a Christmas party.
