  • Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Q&A with Cinematographer Greig Fraser, ACS, ASC (Zoom Event)

    Zoom/Online see event description for link details, CA, United States

    Picturehouse 441 and ACE are proud to be partnering on a series of live virtual Q&As as part of our mutual efforts to promote media literacy.
    Join us for a Q&A with cinematographer Greig Fraser, ACS, ASC as he discusses his work on the epic space opera Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. A total departure from the films that preceded it, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story puts the "wars" in Star Wars. Telling the story of a group of rebels trying to steal the Death Star plans, Rogue One is an intense war film full of dazzling set pieces, a hero to root for (courtesy of Felicity Jones' powerful performance in the lead), and a gritty visual aesthetic, courtesy of the innovative cinematographer Greig Fraser. Harkening back to darker installments like The Empire Strikes Back, Rogue One captures the sense of wonder that made so many generations fall in love with this franchise in the first place.
    This event will be a Live Zoom Webinar on Tuesday, September 2 at 2:30PM ET/11:30AM PT with two encore livestreams to follow on Vimeo.

    American Cinema Editors Presents ... A Screening of The Aviator's Wife on 35mm Followed by a Q&A with Editor Mary Stephen
    Sunday, October 5, 5:15pm
    Metrograph, New York City
    We’re welcoming acclaimed editor Mary Stephen after a 35mm screening of Éric Rohmer’s 1981 comedy The Aviator’s Wife. Mary was assistant editor on the film, working with editor Cécile Decugis, the start of a long collaboration with Rohmer as his editor. Su Friedrich will be moderating. She is an avant-garde filmmaker and writer, a pivotal figure in the establishment of Queer Cinema and the creator of the website Edited By, spotlighting the work of 206 female editors who helped revolutionize film editing. (website: https://womenfilmeditors.princeton.edu/)

    Like many of Rohmer's films, The Aviator's Wife deals with the ever-evolving love lives of a group of young Parisians. The film is the first installment in Rohmer's "Comedies & Proverbs" series — a collection of six films the director made during the 1980s. Each of these films begins with a proverb, in the case of The Aviator's Wife this is: "On ne saurait penser à rien" or "It is impossible to think about nothing."
