Labyrinth
While David Bowie may no longer be with us, his work lives on. While he’ll always be known as a musician first, Bowie acting on the big screen was always compelling. To honor his memory, EMP hosts free screenings of his best known role: Jareth the Goblin King in the adored 1986 Jim Hensen fantasy film Labyrinth. After a Friday screening filled up quickly, EMP added three more screenings on Sunday to give Bowie fans a few more chances to see the departed idol on the massive Sky Church screen.

Some Like it Hot
The classic film starring Marilyn Monroe that is, as the tagline states, “too hot for words” makes its reappearance at Central Cinema this weekend. Originally released in 1959, Some Like It Hot has gone on to appear on numerous lists of the best cinematic comedies, even topping AFI’s 100 Years…100 Laughs. When two musicians (Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon) witness a mob hit, the duo disguises themselves as members of an all-female band to avoid being caught. Funny as it is timeless, any lover of comedy—or film—that hasn’t seen Some Like It Hot should rectify that as soon as possible. Central Cinema, $5–$8

NFC Divisional Playoffs: Seattle Seahawks at Carolina Panthers
After pulling off a miracle in Minnesota last weekend, the Seahawks playoff quest continues with a trip down south to play the top-seeded Carolina Panthers. While the Panthers came into CenturyLink Field and notched a 27-23 comeback win back in October, Seattle had the upper hand in last season’s divisional playoff round, ending Carolina’s season with a 31-17 victory. Unlike last week, the temperature in Charlotte will be above zero, which should allow Russell Wilson to recapture the offense’s areal attack. Televised on Fox

DANCE

Andy Kindler
“I’m so edgy. My act is like walking a on a tightrope on the ground. I’m like Chris Rock without the charisma, and the confidence, and the material.” -Andy Kindler.

Currently the voice of Mort on Bob’s Burgers, Kindler has also made an impressive 40 appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman. El Corazon, $12–$15
