    Movies at the Museum:
    Boyz n the Hood

    Set in South Central Los Angeles, this saga follows the transition from boyhood to manhood, and the many dangers and diversions that can interrupt that journey. In its remarkable climactic scenes, Singleton memorably dramatizes how a single, heat-of-the-moment decision can torpedo an entire life—or save it.

    Movies at the Museum:
    Frances Ha

    Frances lives in New York, but she doesn’t really have an apartment. She is an apprentice for a dance company, but she’s not really a dancer. She has a best friend named Sophie, but they aren’t really speaking anymore. This wry and sparkling city romance uncovers the frustrations and the joys of being young and unsure of where to go next.
