UU’s schedule features a range of films to accommodate a variety of genres and movie preferences. Outside of “Avengers: Infinity War,” UU’s schedule also features titles including “The First Purge” and “Christopher Robin,” among others.

Similar to the Spring 2018 lineup, UU will continue its efforts to help make critically-acclaimed movies more financially accessible to students. This semester’s list is a blend of nominated and award-winning titles, including “Black Panther” and “A Quiet Place.”

In a statement, Sarah Goldberg, UU’s cinemas director for the 2018-19 academic year, said she is “excited to bring in some variety with the genres in this semester’s lineup.” She added that this year’s schedule was intended to be a blend “between the normal summer blockbuster and the smaller, more indie-type movies.”



Entrance is free for students, faculty, staff and the general public. Saturday screenings will also offer open captions.
