Monday, April 6, 8:00 pmOPEN SCREEN MONDAY: ANNIVERSARY EDITION

Free event! Bryn Mawr Film Institute invites area filmmakers to screen their films at our theater—just bring your film in DVD format, and we'll run it on the BIG SCREEN. Admission and praise (or criticism) from your peers will all be offered free of charge. This is an exciting forum for Philadelphia-area filmmakers and an enjoyable event for non-filmmakers who are interested in seeing local work.

Since the very beginning, Bryn Mawr Film Institute has welcomed local filmmakers for the monthly Open Screen Monday events, screening hundreds of completed shorts and works-in-progress for an avid audience. In honor of BMFI’s 10th Anniversary, this special edition of Open Screen Monday will take place at 8pm and feature professional feedback from producer Andrew M. Karasik, instructor of BMFI’s From Pitch to Premiere: The Movie Business course. Make sure to bring your best work!

In March 2005, Bryn Mawr Film Institute officially opened its doors and began serving the region with thoughtful film screenings and educational programs. Ten years later, BMFI is bigger and better than ever after the completion of an expansion project that added two screens to the theater. In celebration of BMFI’s 10th anniversary, this series features some “greatest hits” as well as new programs that look to the future.

Thursday, March 26, 7:00 pmDR. STRANGELOVE OR: HOW I LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE BOMB1964 – USA/UK – 1 hr 35 min – d. Stanley Kubrick

When a deranged Air Force general (Sterling Hayden) gives an unauthorized order to attack the Soviet Union, the laughs are on high alert in this jet-black satire adapted from Peter George’s very serious Cold War thriller Red Alert. George C. Scott, Slim Pickens, and Peter Sellers give hilariously antic performances in Kubrick’s enduringly relevant masterpiece.

Just as sharp today as when it was first released, Kubrick’s black comedy was the first repertory film ever shown at BMFI. We revisit that inaugural event with a screening projected from a beautiful 35mm print!

Wednesday, April 22, 6:30 pmSHAMPOO1975 – USA – 1 hr 49 min – d. Hal Ashby

Warren Beatty stars as a randy hairdresser undone by his coterie of lovers in this saucy and satirical comedy set on the eve of the 1968 presidential election. Although only on screen for roughly 18 minutes, Lee Grant’s performance as the adulterous wife of a politician earned her an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Wednesday, April 22, 5:30 pmAN EVENING WITH LEE GRANTActress, activist, wife, mother, director, author: Lee Grant has played many roles during her storied life. Born Lyova Haskell Rosenthal in New York City, she enjoyed early success on stage and screen following her education at the famed Neighborhood Playhouse, earning an Academy Award nomination by age 24 for her role in Detective Story. But everything came to a sudden halt after she landed on the Hollywood blacklist and her job prospects all but dried up, leaving her professionally stymied for 12 years. Miraculously, Grant eventually overcame the odds and rebuilt her career with a starring role on TV’s Peyton Place, followed by memorable performances in films like Valley of the Dolls, The Landlord, In the Heat of the Night, and Shampoo. Unafraid of any challenge, Lee Grant also made waves in the typically male-dominated field of film directing, ultimately earning an Academy Award (her second!) for her 1986 documentary Down and Out in America.

Learn more about this fearless, fascinating woman during an intimate conversation and audience Q&A moderated by BMFI board member and former Paramount Executive Vice President John Hersker.

Tuesday, March 24, 7:15 pmINNOCENT SORCERERS1960 – Poland – 1 hr 28 min – d. Andrzej WajdaIn one of his few non-political films, Wajda paints a New Wave-esque portrait of disaffected youth in post-war Poland, complete with smoky jazz clubs and hazy interpersonal connections. An ennui-plagued doctor takes a bold young tourist to his bachelor pad for an evening of intellectual, philosophical, and seductive exchanges, leading to unexpected events.

Tuesday, March 31, 7:15 pmTHE WEDDING1972 – Poland – 1 hr 43 min – d. Andrzej WajdaAmid a turn-of-the-twentieth-century wedding reception that blends every stratum of Polish society (inspired by the actual wedding of poet Lucjan Rydel), ghosts of Poland’s cultural and historical past mix among the guests, joining in lamentations of their country’s broken state, in this adaptation of Stanisław Wyspiański’s famous play.

Tuesday, April 7, 7:15 pmMAN OF IRON1981 – Poland – 2 hr 34 min – d. Andrzej WajdaBased on the actual Gdansk Shipyard strikes and the subsequent Solidarity workers' uprising, this film centers around the strike’s leader (based upon Lech Walesa, who makes a cameo in the film), and uses actual footage from Solidarity protests. Although vehemently anti-communist, this film slipped through a brief thaw in censorship, and won the 1981 Palme d’Or at Cannes.

Shown in conjunction with the film course Poland through the Prism of Andrzej Wajda, each screening will be introduced by the course’s instructor, Maurizio Giammarco, Ph.D.

This series is sponsored by Haverford College and organized by faculty members Vicky Funari, Joshua Moses, and John Muse. Both screenings are free for Tri-Co students!Strange Truth

Wednesday, April 1, 7:00 pmSWEETGRASS2009 – France/UK/USA – 1 hr 41 min – d. Lucien Castaing-Taylor and Ilisa BarbashAn unsentimental elegy to the American West, Sweetgrass follows the last modern-day cowboys to lead their flocks of sheep up into Montana’s breathtaking and often dangerous Absaroka-Beartooth mountains for summer pasture. This astonishingly beautiful yet unsparing film reveals a world in which nature and culture, animals and humans, vulnerability and violence are all intimately meshed.

Vicky Funari, documentary filmmaker and artist-in-residence at Haverford College, will moderate a Q&A with Producer/Directors Ilisa Barbash and Lucien Castaing-Taylor after the screening.

Wednesday, April 8, 7:00 pmSTILL MOVING: AN EVENING WITH EXPERIMENTAL FILMMAKER SCOTT STARK“The Realist” (2013, 36 min) and other shorts – d. Scott StarkSince 1980, Scott Stark has produced almost 80 films and numerous installations and photographic works. Formally inventive, visually compelling, and often both humorous and haunting, the films in this program all foreground the relation of moving pictures and still ones in Stark's work. “The Realist” is a doomed love story illustrated with flickering still photographs, peopled with department store mannequins, and located in the universe of clothing displays, fashion islands, and storefront windows.

John Muse, who teaches aesthetics at Haverford College, will moderate a Q&A with director Scott Stark after the programs of shorts.

Monday, May 18, 7:15 pmGODS2008 – Peru – 2 hr – d. Josué MéndezA pair of over-privileged teen siblings, models of idle boredom, experience ennui on the Peruvian party scene as their father’s fiancée, a working-class woman not much older than they, struggles to fit into her new wealth. This tense, beautifully stylized drama is a microcosm of social mobility and the notion that the class is always greener on the other side.

Tuesday, June 2, 7:15 pmSHAUN OF THE DEAD2004 – UK – 1 hr 39 min – d. Edgar WrightSimon Pegg and Nick Frost star in this gorily hilarious British RomZomCom (romantic zombie comedy) as two slackers who become the unlikely heroes of the zombie apocalypse.

BOLSHOI BALLET: IVAN THE TERRIBLEChoreography by Yuri Grigorovich – Music by Sergei Prokofiev – Libretto by Yuri Grigorovich

As young Ivan IV is crowned, he has to choose one of the thirteen Boyar daughters to be his wife and tsarina. He selects Anastasia, and the two eventually fall deeply in love. When the Boyar's plot against him and poison his beloved wife, Tsar Ivan finds himself surrounded by enemies. Haunted by dark thoughts and phantoms, he slowly sinks into madness. Drawing on the music composed by Prokofiev for the 1944 Eisenstein film, Ivan the Terrible is a work in the true Bolshoi style. Yuri Grigorovich's powerful and fascinating epic dramatizes Ivan the Terrible's controversial reign, and portrays events in 16th-century Russia in visually stunning scenes. His choreography, full of vigor, strength and wild jumps, also includes great grace and fragility in the female roles. Sensitive classical and powerful character dance blend to create a lyrical epic, rich in the colors of medieval Russia. Recently revived, Ivan the Terrible is an essential part of the company's repertoire, a 20th-century classic and a wonderful theatrical experience.Sunday, May 17, 1:00 pm

Wednesday, March 25, 7:00 pmALTHEA2014 – USA – 1 hr 17 min – d. Rex Miller

A sharecropper’s daughter and a truant from the rough streets of Harlem, Althea Gibson emerged in the 1950s as a most unlikely queen of the highly segregated tennis world. Although she excelled on the court, becoming the first African-American to play—and win—at Wimbledon and Forest Hills, Althea's life was a haunting mix of struggle, success, and hardship. She is an important historical figure whose story, prior to this film, had largely been untold.

Following a pre-screening coffee reception, director Rex Miller will answer questions with Associate Producer Lisa Hoffstein after the movie.

Wednesday, April 29, 7:00 pmWHAT’S UP, DOC?: BOYHOOD2014 – USA – 2 hr 45 min – d. Richard Linklater

Nominated for six Academy Awards, this sweeping story of a family's life together is told in tiny, universal moments, on a scope unlike any film before.

Co-sponsored by Bryn Mawr Hospital, this screening will be introduced by Nancy Hillis, MD, a specialist in pediatric emergency medicine at Bryn Mawr Hospital.

Wednesday, May 27, 7:00 pmBIRD 1988 – USA – 2 hr 41 min – d. Clint Eastwood

Shown in conjunction with the world premiere production of Daniel Schnyder and Bridgette A. Wimberly’s opera Charlie Parker’s YARDBIRD, Michael Bolton of Opera Philadelphia will introduce the screening, along with Paul Wright, Ph.D., instructor of a Cinema Classics Seminar (see p. 14) focused on Bird.

FILM COURSES

Passion and Wrath: The Films of Carl Theodor DreyerTaught by Christopher Long, M.A., Film Critic and Author

An illegitimate child raised by a Danish foster family he rejected, Carl Theodor Dreyer blazed his own trail through life. Leaving home as a teenager to work first as a journalist and then as a filmmaker, he quickly realized he was uncomfortable in any hierarchical structure—a theme apparent in much of his work—and forged an independent career that remains difficult to categorize, even a half century after his final feature film.

Dreyer's movies are often described as austere, yet express volcanic passions and a marked sensitivity to the interior lives of their characters, most notably the oppressed women who became one of his trademarks. His films often tackle issues of faith, but his own religious beliefs, if any, remain unclear. What is certain is that Dreyer created some of the defining masterpieces of both the silent and sound eras.

Join us to explore this director's most celebrated works, including the silent landmark The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928), and his extraordinary sound films: Vampyr (1932), Day of Wrath (1943), and Ordet (1955). In so doing, we will learn (or be reminded) why Dreyer is considered not just the greatest Danish filmmaker, but one of the most exceptional directors of all time.

Class meets at BMFI: 4 Tuesdays, April 14, 21, 28, May 5, 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm

A Plague upon Your (Movie) Houses!Taught by Ian Abrams, College of Media Art and Design, Drexel University and Dr. Amy J. Behrman, Emergency Medicine, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania

Since last fall’s Ebola panic in the U.S. did not live up to the hype (thankfully), we thought the epidemic junkies among you might appreciate a safe and cinematic exploration of the topic. This class presents four compelling and very different films about biological threats in the modern world, as well as the kernels of fact at their cores. In addition to discussing some terrific movies, we will answer such questions as: What real-life disease could have inspired fictional zombies? What's so terrifying about chickens cohabiting with pigs? And, what used to be underneath Washington Square Park?

Join us to consider these issues and more through the prism of films like Panic in the Streets (1950), Elia Kazan’s thrilling, New Orleans-set film noir that depicts a race against time to find the killers of a plague-carrier before they themselves infect others. Right At Your Door (2006) is a terrifyingly claustrophobic indie movie in which a man watches from his home as a bioweapon ravages Los Angeles, and has to make some painful decisions that have ghastly consequences, while Steven Soderbergh offers a sobering presentation of a 21st century plague in Contagion (2011), which utilizes an all-star cast to illustrate the range of grave challenges a real outbreak could cause in our global society. Finally, we will discuss Edgar Wright’s genre-defying Shaun of the Dead (2004), which offers a hilarious depiction of a war between slackers and zombies in London, and reminds us that laughter is the best medicine.

Ida Lupino: Femme Fatale, Femme AuteurTaught by Maurizio Giammarco, Ph.D., Intellectual Heritage Program, Temple University

Called the “English Jean Harlow” when she arrived in Hollywood in 1932—though she was part of a distinguished British theatrical dynasty—Ida Lupino became one of the most accomplished actresses, and femme fatales, of the 1940s and 1950s through her performances in such films as They Drive by Night, High Sierra, Ladies in Retirement, and The Big Knife.

Throughout this period, as her artistic needs began to exceed what her career in front of the camera could provide, Lupino emerged as the first actress of the studio era to direct in Hollywood. Despite industry conventions and cultural stereotypes that relegated women to the margins of cinematic practice, she became an important auteur, crafting a series of emotionally powerful films that examined such issues as rape (Outrage), social climbing (Hard, Fast and Beautiful), bigamy (The Bigamist), the ravages of polio (Never Fear), and the mechanics of male violence (The Hitch-Hiker). Lupino’s career behind the camera continued to flourish into the 1960s with films like The Trouble with Angels, and in television, where she directed many episodes of the era’s most popular programs, including Alfred Hitchcock Presents, The Untouchables, The Fugitive, and Bewitched. Join us as we explore the rich, prolific career of this celebrated actress and director.

Coming of Age in Latin American CinemaTaught by Beatriz Urraca, Ph.D., Modern Languages Department, Widener University and Gary M. Kramer, Author and Film Critic

Coming of age in Latin American cinema often takes place against dramatic backdrops ranging from stressful domestic situations all too familiar to American audiences, to political revolutions that are, thankfully, a good deal less so. This course examines Latin American personal identity, culture, and recent history from the perspective of the region’s children and adolescents, with each film depicting different pressures youth face. The Way He Looks is a charming romance about a blind, gay teenager in Brazil, while Kept and Dreamless explores the relationship between a young girl and her irresponsible mother. Machuca, set in 1970s Chile, depicts a young boy’s political awakening, while Gods is a caustic Peruvian drama about class and family.

We will consider social issues, including gender, sexuality, class, disability, and politics in the context of Latin American identity, culture, and history through films that privilege the subjectivity of children and youth as a means of delivering a scathing critique of the adult world. These contemporary films subvert traditional Hispanic notions of the child’s place in the family and the nation, and explore what it means to grow up in a society where the most vulnerable members often do not have their basic needs met.

Class meets at BMFI: 4 Mondays, April 27, May 4, 11, 18, 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm

Machuca (2004)

The Graduate (1967)

The Language of FilmTaught by Andrew J. Douglas, Ph.D., Director of Education, BMFI

Diegesis, mise-en-scene, and chiaroscuro are not trendy Center City nightspots but rather some of the key terms of film analysis. This course introduces students to cinematic grammar, giving them the vocabulary and frames of reference to view and discuss motion pictures in an insightful and critical manner. Screenings largely consist of clips from a wide assortment of films illustrating different aspects of the medium’s language, including cinematography, sound, and editing.

From a very early age, we are all able to follow—and be delighted by—movies, but far too often, we continue to approach cinema like the same passive viewers we were as children. Join us to learn to engage with the medium on its own terms and to discover some of the techniques by which we make meaning of the movies we see. Understanding the language of film allows you to get more enjoyment out of your cinematic experience—and to impress your friends at the post-movie discussion!

Class meets at the Perelman Building of the Philadelphia Museum of Art (2525 Pennsylvania Avenue in Philadelphia). 4 Wednesdays, April 8, 15, 22, 29, 10:30 am to 1:30 pm Fee: $100 for BMFI members and PMA members, $125 for non-members.

Citizen Kane (1941)

Touch of Genius: Orson WellesTaught by Andrew J. Douglas, Ph.D., Director of Education, BMFI

His life is the stuff of legend, and so are his best films.

He became a theater revolutionary at age nineteen, and was the perpetrator of a stunning hoax at twenty-three. He was the creative force behind what would become the greatest American film ever made at twenty-five, and was run out of Hollywood (the first time) at twenty-seven. During this period, Welles co-wrote (with Herman J. Mankiewicz), starred in, and directed Citizen Kane (1941), and wrote, narrated, and directed The Magnificent Ambersons (1942). Later, at the age of forty, he ended his second exile from Hollywood to begin a stint that culminated in his writing, starring in, and directing Touch of Evil (1958)—widely hailed as the nigh-perfect finale to the film noir cycle.

Though often dismissed during his career and largely unknown to a generation today, we should never forget that Welles was, in the words of Martin Scorsese, “responsible for inspiring more people to be film directors than anyone else in history of the cinema.” Take this course to see why—and to join us in marking the 100th anniversary of the iconoclastic auteur’s birth.

Class meets at BMFI: 4 Tuesdays, June 9, 16, 23, 30, 6:30 pm to 9:30 pm

Class screenings will take place in the theater.

Blade Runner (1982)

Monday, April 13, 6:30 pm - 9:30 pmCinema Classics Seminar: BLADE RUNNER – THE FINAL CUTTaught by Benjamin Eldon Stevens, Ph.D., Department of Classical Studies, Bryn Mawr College

First released in 1982, Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner helped redefine the science fiction film by offering a vision of the future that remains influential to this day. In contrast to near-contemporary films like George Lucas’s Star Wars or Steven Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind, both family-friendly epics released in 1977, Blade Runner offered visions of a dystopic future—a world where advanced technology has failed to solve present-day problems like pollution and economic disparity, yet has succeeded in creating new ones. By focusing on working-class characters in a setting where the line between ‘natural’ and ‘artificial’ life is left deliberately unclear, the film leaves viewers wondering what it means for people to become only cogs—or perhaps, ghosts—in a machine.

Adapted from Philip K. Dick’s 1968 novella “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?” in part through the astonishing cinematography of Jordan Cronenweth and breathtaking art direction of David L. Snyder, Blade Runner was at the forefront of a new sub-genre of science fiction: tech noir. Such movies are just as lurid and alluring, and just as dangerous and gorgeous, as any femme fatale. Join us to explore the film’s vision and influence, which, over the past three decades, has hit a little too close to home.

One-night seminars offer an entertaining and engaging way to learn more about some of the true classics of world cinema. Students receive an introductory lecture before the film and a guided discussion after the film. In addition, your ticket to see it on the big screen, as well as popcorn and a drink, are included.

Seminars meet in the 2nd floor Multimedia Room at 6:30 pm; the film will be shown in the theater at 7:15 pm, and 7:00 pm, respectively. Fee: $25 for BMFI members, $30 for non-members; includes admission to the film.

Wednesday, May 27, 6:30 pm - 10:00 pmCinema Classics Seminar: BIRDTaught by Paul Wright, Ph.D., Department of English, Cabrini College

In Bird (1988), Clint Eastwood embarked on what seemed a most unusual directorial effort for the “Man with No Name” of Leone’s “spaghetti” westerns. Made four years prior to Eastwood’s Oscar-winning Unforgiven, the Charlie Parker biopic was a project near and dear to his experience as a lifelong jazz aficionado. Starring a young Forest Whitaker as Charlie Parker, Bird was an ambitious effort that not only reminds us of the gifts and the legend of Parker, but also deconstructs the genre of the biopic itself. This seminar explores both Parker's transformative music and Eastwood's efforts to translate the power of improvisational jazz into the idiom of Hollywood cinema. In turn, we will interrogate the racial politics and controversies that have attended Eastwood’s film in the years since its release. Bird is a unique cinematic time capsule for Parker’s genius, as well as for the burgeoning skills of Eastwood the filmmaker.

On the set of Bird (1988)
