Los Angeles Film Critics Association at the Egyptian
DETAILS
The Egyptian Theatre continues its monthly screening series with the Los Angeles Film Critics Association in 2026.
LAFCA, which recently celebrated its 50th anniversary, presents a series of screenings that showcase the unique choices made by the organization at its annual vote. LAFCA has often chosen to highlight excellent titles that stand apart from the preordained front-runners of awards season.
On Tuesday, February 10, Laura San Giacomo will join us at the Egyptian Theatre for a screening of Steven Soderbergh’s audacious Sex, Lies, and Videotape, for which San Giacomo won the “Next Generation Award” from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. San Giacomo will be in conversation with film critic and LAFCA member Lael Loewenstein.
The 1989 indie success also won the Palme d’Or, as well as the Audience Award at Sundance that year. LAFCA dedicates this screening to the final Sundance Film Festival in Park City, with Sex, Lies, and Videotape representing one of the most formative films in establishing that festival's identity.
Ann (Andie MacDowell), a frustrated wife, enters into counseling due to a troubled marriage. Unbeknownst to her, her husband John (Peter Gallagher) has begun an affair with her sister, Cynthia (Laura San Giacomo). When John’s best friend Graham (James Spader) arrives, his penchant for interviewing women about their sex lives forever changes John and Ann’s rocky marriage.
