Feb. 5: “Tampopo” (Juzo Itami, 1985). Memorably funny, affectionately satirical “ramen western” about a couple’s single-minded search for the perfect noodle recipe, with hilarious jabs en route at the yakuza, spaghetti westerns, and human nature. Sponsored by the U-M Center for Japanese Studies. Japanese, subtitles. Free. 7 p.m.
