“THE INNOCENTS”

World War II is over and Mathilde is treating the last of the French survivors at the German camps in Warsaw. One night, a panicked nun comes in begging Mathilde to follow her back to the convent. What she finds there is shocking — a sister about to give birth and several others in advanced stages of pregnancy. Fearing the shame of exposure, the nuns increasingly turn to the nonbeliever Mathilde, who seeks the help of Samuel, a Jewish doctor, as their belief system clashes with harsh realities. Landmark Theatres, 10850 W. Pico Blvd., Los Angeles. (310) 470-0492. ” target=”_blank”>laemmle.com.

“FOUR CHORDS AND A GUN”

“Four Chords and a Gun” tells the true story of the Ramones. Desperate for a hit, the punk rock band enlisted legendary producer Phil Spector to produce their fifth album in 1978. In the ensuing months, guns were drawn, hearts were broken and an incredible record was created. Written by John Ross Bowie and directed by Jessica Hanna. The cast features Josh Brener (“Silicon Valley,” “The Internship”), Arden Myrin (“MadTV”), Johnathan McClain (“Mad Men”), Matthew Patrick Davis (“Comedy Bang! Bang!”), James Pumphrey (“Arrested Development,” “Key & Peele”) and Michael Daniel Cassady (“Drunk History”). 7 p.m. $25. Bootleg Theater, 2220 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles. (310) 460-9812.
