Behind the Screen

The Jim Henson Exhibition

Museum of the Moving Image

This dynamic experience explores Jim Henson’s groundbreaking work for film and television and his transformative impact on culture.

Recurring

Weathering with You

Following his 2016 hit Your Name, Makoto Shinkai returned with this poignant drama, set in a water-deluged Shinjuku beautifully etched in the director’s signature style. Screening 4/1 and 4/2.

Mouchette

Robert Bresson’s bracing adaptation of the novella by George Bernanos about a teen girl in a French village is spare and emotionally devastating.

Mamma Roma

Pasolini revived the style of Italian neorealism with his audacious second film, which stars Anna Magnani as a prostitute struggling to escape her past and provide a decent life for her teenage son.

Recurring

Godzilla vs. Megalon

Though once denounced among tokusatsu fans who prefer more serious kaiju fare, this fun adventure, in which the King of the Monsters reaches his peak as campy saurian superhero, has gained a strong cult following in recent years. 

Je tu il elle

Akerman’s first narrative feature, shot on 16mm on a shoestring budget after her return from New York City, is a triptych loosely based on Akerman’s own experiences hitchhiking across Belgium to visit an ex-girlfriend.
