    Summer Movie Night: The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999)

    Nestled in amongst the walkable – and therefore intolerably expensive – Hyde Park neighborhood is former post office-turned-book purveyor First Light. They’ve made their mark among the hip and literate in Austin, but now they aim to secure the cinephile crowd as well. Kicking off their summer movie series, The Talented Mr. Ripley screens in First Light’s picturesque courtyard. A tale of stolen identity, the film adapts Patricia Highsmith’s first Tom Ripley novel into a scintillating summer story featuring Matt Damon as bisexual menace Ripley and a golden Jude Law at peak pretty in the Dickie Greenleaf role. Popcorn’s included, so all you need to bring is a camping chair or blanket to watch from. – James Scott Read a full review of The Talented Mr. Ripley.

    Sungay: Vegas in Space (1991)

    Biased as I am toward video rental nonprofit We Luv Video – that’s right; I pay $10 a month to rent Beverly Hills Cop instead of buying it on iTunes – their new SunGAYS screening series is factually cool. Cutting through the easy queer cinema choices such as But I’m a Cheerleader or To Wong Foo, these movie mavens pull Nineties sci-fi passion project Vegas in Space for the series’ inaugural show. Plot? Rare gems go missing on a ladies-only planet, and three Earth soldier boys must disguise themselves as women to help hunt the stones down. Bold, beautiful, and totally drag-tastic, this is the perfect bow on your Pride month schedule. – James Scott
