Tex Tubb’s will be serving up a SLACKER and Austin themed menu, so be sure to reserve your seat now and check out Tex Tubb’s website for the full week lineup!

We’ll be returning to Lola’s Sidecar Lounge with another Movie Party just in time for Valentine’s Day warmup on February 11th. Join us for a classic New York tale of romance, Peter Bogdanovich’s THEY ALL LAUGHED. Ben Gazzara and Audrey Hepburn lead an ensemble cast of ‘80s mile-a-minute lovers in cabs, on roller skates, doing stakeouts, you name it! Named after a Gershwin tune so you’ll get some '30s sophistication in the mix also! Doors at 6pm, movie at 7pm. Get there early, seating is limited!

Staff Picks
Alex says:
quite ghoulish and so slickly shot by ernest dickerson, also deeply personal for writer-director James Bond the Third (amazing), will make you wonder why you haven't watched it a dozen times already

does a lot with a small budget, we're all just iterations living through history, etc, etc

Luke says:
I stumbled upon this one in the store last year and loved it. Minimal and realistic filmmaking from the same movement of black LA-based filmmakers as "Killer Of Sheep" (Charles Burnett). If you saw that at the Cinematheque last fall you'll probably like this one too.

Robert says:
One of my favorite films from 2024. "Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat" brilliantly weaves archival materials together into an epic portrait of neocolonialism by the U.S. and Western European powers in the Democratic Republic of Congo that culminated with the assassination of Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba. The film sounds like a million bucks, with a soundtrack featuring the greatest jazz musicians of the twentieth century. Worth watching for the music alone!
