  • Foxy Brown Q&A with Writer and Director Jack Hill (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 writer/director Jack Hill, as he discusses his 1974 action film Foxy Brown. After teaming up for the acclaimed Coffy, filmmaker Jack Hill and star Pam Grier reunited for the wildly entertaining Foxy Brown. Proving once again that Pam Grier is a force of nature onscreen, this film about a woman who goes out for revenge against the drug dealers who killed her boyfriend is a subversive feminist statement under the guise of a standard blaxploitation film. A major influence on countless subsequent films including Quentin Tarantino’s Jackie Brown (which also starred Pam Grier), this wonderful original holds up beautifully as a glorious ode to female power.

    This event will be a Live Zoom Webinar on Tuesday, March 25 at 8PM ET/5PM PT with two encore livestreams to follow on Vimeo.

    Encore 1: Tuesday, March 25 at 11PM ET/8PM PT
    Encore 2: Wednesday, March 26 at 3PM ET/12PM PT

  • American Cinema Editors Presents Amour followed by a Q&A with Editor Monika Willi (NY Event)

    Featured
    Metrograph 7 Ludlow St, New York, NY

    Icons of French cinema Jean-Louis Trintignant and Emmanuelle Riva play an elderly couple facing final separation by cruel death in Haneke’s tender-yet-hard study of life at the precipice. Cinematographer Darius Khondji offers a litany of locked-down framings, brittle in their composed beauty, each marked by an elegant exactitude and slowly suffocating airlessness, while editor Monika Willi’s smooth, sure-handed cutting lends what otherwise might be a stultifyingly static work a feeling of grim, merciless momentum, sliding imperceptibly towards the Great Beyond. Perhaps Haneke’s ultimate directorial accomplishment—and, incidentally, a eulogy for the youthful dreams of the 1960s European art cinema.

    Q&A with editor Monika Willi on Friday, March 28th

  • Toy Story 3 Q&A with Director/Co-Writer Lee Unkrich, ACE, Writer Michael Arndt, Producer Darla K. Anderson & Supervising Animator Bobby Podesta (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/co-writer Lee Unkrich, ACE, writer Michael Arndt, producer Darla K. Anderson, supervising animator Bobby Podesta, and head of story Jason Katz, as they discuss their 2010 animated film Toy Story 3. Handling life's changes and finding emotional closure are themes that most wouldn't associate with a film about anthropomorphic toys, but that's exactly what Toy Story 3 is. With two previous installments that were instant classics and the curse of second sequels usually being disappointments, this film had a lot going against it. But, the minute Toy Story 3 hit screens, it entered the pantheon of great films due to the obvious care, intelligence, and love poured into its creation. Filled with hilarious one-liners and new characters as well as a real emotional punch and typically strong vocal performances from its talented cast and expertly edited Ken Schretzmann, ACE, Toy Story 3 is another high point from Pixar and is one of three animated features in history to be honored with an Oscar nomination for Best Picture (it won Oscars for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song).
    This event will be a Live Zoom Webinar on Wednesday, April 2 at 8PM ET/5PM PT with two encore livestreams to follow on Vimeo.

    Encore 1: Wednesday, April 2 at 11PM ET/8PM PT

As he seduces women at a price he begins to fall for one, even as he’s suspected of the murder of another. With a sick Giorgio Moroder soundtrack and the art, architecture, and fashion of early '80s LA, this scorcher will leave you thirsty… for more!
