The Right Watch

There's no concession stand; no coming attractions trailers. You won't be made to listen to cheesy pop music before the movie commences, nor is it likely you'll wind up next to a gaggle of teens who text and chatter straight through the entertainment. The only talking you'll hear at the Phoenix Art Museum's Film and Performance series will take place after the movie, in a discussion related to the picture you've just seen. The museum screens thought-provoking movies with themes related to its current exhibits.
