Emma Stone in 'Kinds Of Kindness,' which screens at the Tampa Theatre in Tampa, Florida on July 5, 2024.

The forecast after the Fourth of July is hot, and likely hungover.

Enter the Tampa Theatre. Downtown’s historic movie palace—located at 711 N Franklin St.—has teamed up with free streaming service Pluto TV to offer residents two days of free movies inside the theater’s dark, air-conditioned main theater as well as its new 43-seat screening room.

“Kinds Of Kindness”—a new comedic drama from “Poor Things” director Yorgos Lanthimos, pictured—is on tap for the smaller Taylor Screening Room where it’ll show four times, while the Historic Duncan Auditorium hosts a Sunday matinee featuring Ron Howard’s classic space drama “Apollo 13.”

"MaXXXine," a new A24 slasher that opens on Friday, is part of the offering, too.

All you have to do is reserve your seat while they last.

Tickets are still available for free screenings of "Kinds Of Kindness" and "Apollo 13" at Tampa Theatre this Saturday-Sunday, July 5-6.
