The Dryden will screen Jeannette, l'enfance de Jeanne d'Arc (Jeannette: The Childhood of Joan of Arc, Bruno Dumont, France 2017, 106 min., DCP, French w/subtitles).
France, 1425. In the midst of the Hundred Years' War, the young Jeannette, at the still tender age of 8, looks after her sheep in the small village of Domremy. One day, she tells her friend Hauviette how she cannot bear to see the suffering caused by the English. Madame Gervaise, a nun, tries to reason with the young girl, but Jeannette is ready to take up arms for the salvation of souls and the liberation of the Kingdom of France. Carried by her faith, she will become Joan of Arc. With heavy metal musical "Jeannette" Bruno Dumont (we recently screened his Li'l Quinquin and Slack Bay) continues the process of reinventing himself as one of the most original, iconoclastic, and consistently surprising of all French filmmakers.

The Flower City Arts Center will host an Opening Reception for Room to Breathe by Dan Pfohl, on display through April 18.
My intention with this body of work is to create functional objects of quiet beauty. I want my pottery to lead the viewer to remember an experience of vastness, the view of endless fields, or a mountain that extends into the sky seemingly forever. The surfaces of my work reference the horizon line, and the separations between fields, forests, and mountains. My work embodies my attempt to slow down, to be present in each moment, and to be more mindful. The work is the product of my pursuit to understand subtlety, elegance and purity through form and surface. The warm tones are approachable, the colors morph into one another going from orange to green to red. Similar to a field at sunset or a lichen covered rock in the woods, the surfaces are varied and inconsistent. The forms are sturdy and secure and interact with the table the way a tree stands tall in the woods. While making this work I have been reflecting on resisting impulse, taking time to think things through, and considering notions of beauty and value of the human experience.

2018-04-05 19:30 - 21:21 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Touch of Evil (Orson Welles, U.S. 1958, 111 min., 35mm) as part of the Tarnished Badge series.
Beginning with a masterfully complex opening shot, screenwriter and director Orson Welles plunges headlong into this tale of violence and deceit with all the baroque visual decadence of a cinematic genius. Welles gives one of his greatest performances as Hank Quinlan, the corpulent and corrupt head of police in a sleazy town on the Us-Mexico border. When a bomb explodes at the border crossing, Mexican official Mike Vargas (Charlton Heston) clashes with Quinlan during the investigation, jeopardizing the safety of Vargas's new bride, Susie (Janet Leigh). Removed from the production during editing, Welles wrote a lengthy memo requesting changes in editing and sound, and we are pleased to present his original vision here.

The Dryden will screen 8½ (Federico Fellini, Italy/France 1963, 138 min., 35mm, Italian w/subtitles) as part of the Academy Awards at 90 series.
Fellini's rapturous masterpiece stars the director's parallel persona Marcello Mastroianni as a filmmaker lost in life, unable to find the motivation for his next movie. As Mastroianni escapes to a spa, he realizes that neither his wife nor his mistress understands him, and he drifts into a search for purpose. Flashing backwards and forwards, 8½ plays out the filmmaker's youth, ambition, hopes, and fears in some of cinema's most spectacular sequences, as Fellini celebrates life's unpredictable path.

The trail leads them to Lilli, a torch singer who becomes their primary witness and Cal's love interest. When the money is found, Cochran is tempted to take it and run away with Lilli, but Duff is cracking under the pressure of what he knows, leading to a volatile confrontation.
