Thursday, August 28 thru Sunday, August 31: Cinema Worcester at the Frontroom Presents “Eddington”


Cinema Worcester in conjunction with the WCUW Frontroom presents “Eddington”, a film by Ari Aster.


Eddington is a 2025 American Neo-Western satirical black comedy film written and directed by Ari Aster. Set in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic in New Mexico, the film examines the political and social turmoil caused by the contested mayoral election fought between Sheriff Joe Cross and Mayor Ted Garcia.


As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Mayor Ted Garcia (Pedro Pascal) of Eddington, New Mexico, implements a lockdown and enforces mask mandates. Local sheriff Joe Cross (Joaquin Phoenix) disapproves, believing the mandates violate people’s freedom of choice. This sparks a powder keg as neighbor is pitted against neighbor.


“The perfect conspiracy thriller for a broken, brainwashed nation.” Rolling Stone


Run time is 1 hour 38 minutes. R (Violent/bloody images | Language | Some underage smoking/drinking | Sexual assault).

Showtimes: Thursday, August 21, 7 pm; Friday, August 22, 7 pm; Saturday, August 23, 1 pm; and Sunday, August 24, 1 pm.


Tickets $13.58 general admission, $11.44 senior/student with ID, $10.38 for WCUW members (processing fees included). Purchase tickets online.



The WCUW Frontroom is located at 910 Main St., Worcester MA. Parking in the Clark University lot across the street, or on the street.
