Catching Up: 2025 in Review

Jan. 15–Mar. 1, 2026

Although the calendar has flipped, we’re not quite done with 2025 yet. The past year in movies has been so strong that there’s still more ground to cover—and more great movies to premiere at the Burns. New series Catching Up gives us a chance to showcase Mary Bronstein’s award-winning If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, the ingenious thriller Weapons, festival favorite Blue Sun Palace, Alex Ross Perry’s epic video essay valentine to the video store, Videoheaven, and more. The 2025 cup runneth over, and we’re here to help you absorb it all.
