THE CONVERSATION
One of the great advantages of having a dedicated art house cinema, aside from screening the latest independent and international films, is enjoying classic films you’ve only ever seen on television … or perhaps not at all. Downtown’s Beverly Theater has already taken a few intriguing steps in that direction (guarantee you it’s the first to screen 1949’s The Third Man and 1995’s Leprechaun 3 in the same month), but it ramp ups with this three-day run of Francis Ford Coppola’s classic 1974 thriller The Conversation. If you’re unfamiliar, it’s the story of expert bugger Harry Caul (Gene Hackman), and a recorded conversation that might anticipate a murder. The supporting cast, which includes Harrison Ford and the late, great John Cazale, is perfection, and its taut, claustrophobic storytelling earned it a Best Picture Oscar nomination, which it lost to Coppola’s other movie from that year, The Godfather Part II And if ever there was a classic film that could benefit from the nuances of the Beverly’s terrific sound system, it’s this one. April 14-16, 4 & 7 p.m., $10, the Beverly Theater, thebeverlytheater.com. –Geoff Carter

EPIK HIGH
Korean pop music has been steadily spreading around the world for at least two decades, its appeal personified here in Las Vegas by last year’s BTS Allegiant Stadium takeover. But hip-hop trio Epik High predates that global expansion and has been cited as a major influence by many of the biggest K-pop groups. Tablo, Mithra Jin and DJ Tukutz have been crafting lyrically complex tracks since 2001, before hip-hop was anything close to mainstream in South Korea, eventually breaking through with 2005 album Swan Songs (which, as the name describes, was originally meant to be their final album). The pioneering, genre-blending group has taken different breaks through the years for military service and family time, eventually surging again in 2016 when it became the first Korean act to play Coachella. After dropping two-part album Epik High Is Here over the past two years, Epik High wraps up its extensive North American tour with a debut concert at the Cosmopolitan, another reminder that Las Vegas truly is a global music destination. 8 p.m., $40-$200, the Chelsea, ticketmaster.com. –Brock Radke
