The inaugural West Coast "American Cinema Editors Presents" event will be a screening of the 1983 comedy/drama The Big Chill followed by a conversation with editor Carol Littleton, ACE, at Los Angeles institution Vidiots.
The ultimate '80s hangout movie, with a killer soundtrack and remarkable performances, Lawrence Kasdan’s The Big Chill still serves all the laughs and all the feels. Seven old college friends gather at the funeral of an old colleague and reflect on their iconoclastic youth, even as they have very much settled into the establishment. With razor-sharp dialogue and tunes from Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, Aretha Franklin, and The Rolling Stones, you’ll want to chill with this classic all night long.
Tickets are $12

The next "American Cinema Editors Presents" screening is an exciting one – the 2010 Western Meek's Cutoff, which was both directed and edited by Kelly Reichardt.This will be the first time "ACE Presents" has hosted a speaker who was both the director and editor of the film. Kelly edits most of the films she directs. In addition to the Q&A with the director/editor, Meek's Cutoff will be shown in 35mm. This screening, moderated by Julia Bloch, will be part of a retrospective of Kelly's films beginning the first weekend of May and leading up to this screening.
Loosely based on a historical incident on the Oregon Trail in the 1840s, Meek's Cutoffis the story of six settlers and their guide who are caught in a dangerous situation: They are lost, food and water are running out, and the surrounding desert threatens to claim them all. Meanwhile, their guide, Stephen Meek (Bruce Greenwood), refuses to acknowledge that they may be several weeks off-course. When a Native American (Rod Rondeaux) is captured, Emily Tetherow (Michelle Williams), one of the settlers, shields him from Meek's wrath, and he offers to lead the group to water in return.
