Editor’s Pick: Gun Hill Road plays tonight as part of Reel Affirmations Xtra
For its monthly film series, Reel Affirmations presents Gun Hill Road, starring Esai Morales (NYPD Blues) and Judy Reyes (Scrubs) as parents whose already troubled relationship is further threatened by their teenage son’s budding sexuality. Morales’ machismo character, fresh from prison, risks losing his family and freedom if he can’t come to terms with reality in this gritty, intricate film, the first from writer/director Rashaad Ernesto Green. Tonight, Thursday, July 7, at 7 p.m. and 9:15 p.m. Landmark’s E Street Cinema, 555 11th St. NW. Tickets are $12. Call 202-452-7672 or visit reelaffirmations.org.
