Movies: ‘Cremaster Cycle’

Sculptor and performance artist Matthew Barney’s epic five-part “Cremaster Cycle” will have an exclusive one-week engagement. The surreal cult films, which haven’t appeared on L.A. screens since 2003, employ Celtic mysticism, hallucinatory Busby Berkeley-style musical sequences and gender-bending sexuality to dazzling effect. Nuart Theatre, 11272 Santa Monica Blvd., Santa Monica. 1:30, 4:30 and 8:30 p.m. Fri., Sat. and Thu.; 2, 5:20 and 8:15 p.m. Sun. and Tue.; 2:30, 6:30 and 10 p.m. Mon. and Wed. General admission $10.50, bargain matinees $8. (310) 281-8223. https://www.landmarktheatres.com.
