Museum of the Moving Image

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

Cinema of Sensations: The Never-Ending Screen of Val del Omar

This major exhibition brings the immersive, multisensory cinematic installations of visionary Spanish artist, filmmaker, and inventor José Val del Omar (1904–1982) to U.S. audiences for the first time, along with commissioned pieces by contemporary artists Sally Golding, Matt Spendlove, and Tim Cowlishaw; Duo Prismáticas; Esperanza Collado; and Colectivo Los Ingrávidos.

Refreshing the Loop

A Streetcar Named Desire

Full of iconic moments that pointed toward a new kind of cinema of the 1950s, Elia Kazan’s film is the ultimate cinematic representative of the Actors Studio period in movie.

The Rescuers

Among the most charming and vividly realized animated features of Disney’s post–Golden Age, this hit adaptation of a series of books by Margery Sharp follows the adventures of the Rescue Aid Society, a group of mice helping international victims in peril.

Recurring

Rope

Contemporary critics may have all but ignored what was going on between Hitchcock's Leopold and Loeb–like killers in favor of fixating on its form—a movie told in real time through extended shots and invisible cuts—modern audiences can revel in the simmering erotic tension between Granger and Dall.

What If

In the first feature by Christopher Papakaliatis, creator and star of the hit series Maestro in Blue, a seemingly confirmed bachelor living in Athens takes his dog out for a walk and meets the woman who will change his life forever. What if he had stayed home?

Recurring

Blow Out

John Travolta gives one of his strongest performances as a movie sound man in Brian De Palma’s masterful and ambitious variation on Michelangelo Antonioni’s Blow Up.
