SUNDAY

Find yourself making voodoo dolls of all your ex-partners? Wondering what went wrong? Come seethe along with fellow dumpees at the Corcoran’s “Betrayal: Film Series,” co-sponsored by the Forum for the Psychoanalytic Study of Film. Tonight’s dish: the 1983 time-rewind flick Betrayal, with Jeremy Irons as a slimy sonofabitch (imagine!) trapped in a love triangle with Ben Kingsley and Patricia Hodge. Watch the heady triple dose of deceit from end to beginning, and let your emotions spew at the post-viewing discussion with Dr. Justin Frank. You might not only learn how to justify your bitterness, you might pick up tips for revenge as well. Nurture your hate at 5:30 p.m. at the Corcoran Gallery of Art’s Hammer Auditorium, 17th & New York Ave. NW. $15. (202) 639-1770. (Sharada Chidambaram)
