The Dryden will present a special Curator's Choice screening Sátántangó (Satantango, Béla Tarr, Hungary 1994, 432 min., 35mm, Hungarian w/subtitles), and La Flamme (Ron Dyens, France 2001, 2 min., 35mm).

At the end of his 22 years of (non-consecutive) tenure at the museum, Senior Curator Paolo Cherchi Usai has achieved a long-cherished dream: showing one of the longest cinematic masterpieces ever made, alongside one of the shortest, La Flamme, in one program. Satantango is ranked among the fifty greatest films of all time (2012 Sight and Sound critics' poll). Susan Sontag wrote that she would be "glad to see it every year for the rest of [her] life." The stunning 35mm print exhibited for this very special event is from the Berkeley Art Museum/Pacific Film Archive.
