Sep 9 – The Secret in their Eyes

Our Fall season begins with an Oscar-nominated, Argentinian-Spanish mystery story. In The Secret in Their Eyes, a retired prosecutor begins writing a novel in hopes of solving a long ago homicide and resolving the unrequited love he retains for his boss. Both still haunt him decades later. (129 min.)

“It’s a cracking good murder mystery that, by the time the final twist kicks in, transforms into a moving meditation on memory and justice.” — Dana Stevens, Slate.

“An absorbing story of the unlikely intersection of an unrequited love affair and an unresolved crime, this taut thriller features some bravura cinematic moments and memorable performances from an exceptionally attractive cast of players.” — Ann Hornaday, Washington Post.
