Saturday Happenings

Drone

The Brooklyn-based drone act Growing is pretty uncompromising when it comes to playing only a handful of tones. Louder now, and more rhythmic, if you only know the band from its early Olympia, Washington days, you might be pleasantly surprised (or annoyed). Performing with Neptune, World Map, and Long Knives. Church of Boston, 69 Kilmarnock St., 8 p.m. $9.

Movies

The Brattle continues its Truffaut retrospective with Stolen Kisses (1968), a further development in the life of Antoine Doinel, the young man we met in The 400 Blows (1959), which also screens today. Antoine, back from the war, learns how to love. Brattle Theatre, 40 Brattle St., Cambridge Tickets and showtimes.

The HFA continues its Dardenne brothers retrospective with You're on My Mind (1992), a rare classically lyrical work from the masters of hard bitten realism. Harvard Film Archive, Carpenter Center, 24 Quincy St., Cambridge, 7 p.m. $8/$6.

Hip Hop

Jeru the Damaja came strong during the wave of Five Percenter rap in the early nineties, riding the beats of DJ Premiere and Large Professor to help restore East Coast rap to its former prominence. Those who want to give the man his props will have two opportunities: and in-store at Underground Hip Hop Dot Com and a DJ set at the Fresh Produce dance night. UGGH, 234 Huntington Ave., 6 p.m. Free. And Good Life, 28 Kingston St., 10 p.m. Free.
