Jennifer’s Body Q&A with Director Karyn Kusama and Editor Plummy Tucker, ACE (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 film literacy.
Join us for a Q&A with director Karyn Kusama and Editor Plummy Tucker, ACE, as they discuss their 2009 black comedy horror film Jennifer's Body. The world was not ready for Jennifer's Body in 2009. This Diablo Cody-scripted, Karyn Kusama-directed film about a possessed teen girl and her friend was so far ahead of its time that its studio, critics, and audiences didn’t quite know what to make of it. However, after the MeToo movement hit, everyone started to catch up and it underwent a critical reappraisal and developed a cult following. As directed by the reliably excellent Kusama and cut by her longtime editor Plummy Tucker, Jennifer's Body is a subversive, devilishly funny vision of the horrors men wreak on teenage girls.

This event will be a Live Zoom Webinar on Monday, October 28 at 8PM ET/5PM PT with two encore livestreams to follow on Vimeo.

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 film literacy.
Join us for a Q&A with director Paul Greengrass and Editor Chirstopher Rouse, ACE, as they discuss their 2007 action-thriller The Bourne Ultimatum. The climactic chapter of the Bourne Trilogy also happens to be its apex. Satisfyingly closing out Jason Bourne’s quest to find out who he is and what has happened to him, The Bourne Ultimatum finds Greengrass and longtime editor Christopher Rouse, ACE (who won an Oscar for his work) working at their respective peaks and crafting some of the most extraordinary action scenes in modern film history. Employing Greengrass’ trademark docudrama-like style that made United 93 and The Bourne Supremacybefore it such hard-hitting filmic experiences, The Bourne Ultimatum is a Hollywood blockbuster that is both dramatically satisfying and genuinely thrilling.

Don’t Look Now Q&A with Editor Graeme Clifford (Zoom Event)

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 film literacy.
Join us for a Q&A with editor Graeme Clifford, as he discusses his 1973 thriller The Don't Look Now. Beginning on a rainy day in England before making its way through the labyrinthine passageways and canals of Venice, Don't Look Now is another in a string of 1970's classics from filmmaker Nicolas Roeg that have stood the test of time for their structural inventiveness and dramatic power. The film, beautifully adapted by Allan Scott and Chris Bryant from the Daphne du Maurier short story, follows a couple, Laura and John Baxter (Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland), who travel to Venice after their young daughter's death and the strange visions that begin to haunt John. Inventively cut by Graeme Clifford and routinely ranked as one of the finest British films of all time, Don't Look Now is a searing exploration of grief that grows deeper and more haunting with each viewing.

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 film literacy.
Join us for a Q&A with writer/producer/director Jacques Audiard & editor Juliette Welfling, as they discuss their 2024 French musical crime comedy Emilia Pérez. Maverick filmmaker Jacques Audiard returned to the director’s chair this year with Emilia Pérez which tells the story of a Mexican drug lord who, with the help of a kind lawyer, decides to leave their violent past behind and become their true self by transitioning into Emilia Pérez. It’s a crime thriller and a family drama … and a musical. With committed performances from its entire cast including Karla Sofía Gascón, Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, and Adriana Paz, who all shared the Cannes Best Actress Prize, Emilia Pérez proves to be a humane, touching work that’s further electrified by Audiard’s longtime editor, Juliette Welfling. Emilia Pérez is a film that walks several fine lines, pulling off a cinematic tightrope act that ranks as one of 2024’s most audacious and successful achievements.
