Join Professor Carvin Eison of Rochester Community Media and Bleu Cease, Executive Director of Rochester Contemporary Art Center to learn more about the community collaborative that is coalescing to re-energize the living legacy of Frederick Douglass — and to invite you to answer the question of why it still matters today.

"There Goes the Neighborhood!"
2017-11-14 19:00 - 20:30 | Greece Public Library, 2 Vince Tofany Blvd., Greece, New York, 14612, United States
In this interactive presentation, the goal is to virtually tour, relive, and retell the historical transformation of Rochester's old 7th ward and to study the effects of racism and discriminatory policies and practices, which is argued to have caused the 1964 uprisings. With this understanding, we may gain insight in the recent uprisings in Ferguson and Baltimore in addition to understanding urban uprisings in general to inform anti-violence and anti-poverty efforts in New York State.

Dina screening (2017-Nov-14 @ 7 p.m.)
2017-11-14 19:00 - 20:43 | Little Theatre, 240 East Ave. #100, Rochester, New York, 14604, United States
The Little will screen Dina (Antonio Santini, Dan Sickles, U.S. 2017, 103 min.) as part of the One Take Documentary Series.
Dina, an outspoken and eccentric 49-year-old in suburban Philadelphia, invites her fiancé Scott, a Walmart door greeter, to move in with her. Having grown up neurologically diverse in a world blind to the value of their experience, the two are head-over-heels for one another, but shacking up poses a new challenge. Filmmakers Dan Sickles and Antonio Santini construct seamless vérité scenes that lovingly frame Dina and Scott's vulnerable, yet matter-of-fact romance. Whether at the local nail salon, the warm beaches of Ocean City, Dina's racy bachelorette party, or on honeymoon in the Poconos, Dina captures the cadences and candid conversations of a relationship that reexamines the notion of love on-screen.

The Last Volunteer screening
2017-11-14 19:30 - 20:44 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen The Last Volunteer (Oscar Apfel, U.S. 1914, 74 min., 35mm) with live piano by Philip C. Carli as part of the Silent Tuesdays series.
The Last Volunteer was borne out of the American public's combined unease and romantic fascination with Europe's complicated politics leading to the First World War. Its story—an overworked monarch seeks the simple life and finds an honest emotional link with a commoner, while enemy spies and betrayers within his own government create conflict in his absence—directly mirrored American and European concerns of the time. The Last Volunteer is especially notable as one of the few extant features directed by Oscar Apfel (who essentially taught Cecil B. DeMille filmmaking). Leading man Irving Cummings later became an important director at 20th Century Fox, responsible for films ranging from Curly Top to The Story of Alexander Graham Bell. Contemporary reviews noted the creative staging of the film's battle scenes, and it is overall a very lavish, intriguing, and polished American feature for its day. This will be the first exhibition of the George Eastman Museum's restoration from the only known 28mm source.

2017-11-15 19:30 - 21:13 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen The Crazies (George A. Romero, U.S. 1973, 103 min., 35mm) as part of the Rip Romero series.
A military plane crashes in Evans, Pennsylvania, releasing a deadly virus that affects the infected in one of two ways: death or insanity. As the germ rapidly infests the small town, armed forces are called in to restore order, but when they, too, catch the bug, a chaotic guerrilla war ensues, sending scientists on a desperate search for a cure. The Crazies's portrait of government ineptitude is vintage Romero and features many unforgettable images, such as a genteel, elderly woman nonchalantly jabbing a sewing needle into a very surprised soldier.

2017-11-15 20:00 - 22:00 | Lovin' Cup, 300 Park Point Dr., Rochester, New York, 14623, United States
With five decades of colorful history behind them, STRAWBS evolved from 1960s British Folk Movement roots to a powerful and enduring force in progressive rock music. Led by the charismatic Dave Cousins, who has been called the most talented Dylan-influenced songwriter to come out of England, Strawbs' dynamic performances, marked by impassioned vocals, tight harmonies, and precise instrumentation are exciting, lush and timeless.

Through his ongoing project Changing Perspectives, Jamey Stillings explores our complicated history as a fossil fuel-dependent society now shifting toward renewable energy.

The Alternative Music Film Society will screen Oasis: Supersonic (Mat Whitecross, U.K. 2016, 122 min.) at the MAG.
Arguably the most influential of the Brit-Pop bands of the 90s, Oasis skyrocketed to fame on talent as well as undeniable ego and confidence. Only one thing could bring them down: themselves. Ewan McGregor's reaction to this film: " I'm so happy. I'm so sad. This film killed me. I want to go back…"

Forbidden screening
2017-11-16 19:30 - 20:57 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Forbidden (Frank Capra, U.S. 1932, 87 min., 35mm) as part of the Capra series.
Lulu (Barbara Stanwyck) is a young librarian who takes a romantic cruise to Cuba and meets a rising politician (Adolphe Menjou) with whom she begins an affair. Soon, a newspaper editor (Ralph Bellamy) in pursuit of the scoop on this salacious story falls for Lulu, too. Forbidden was billed as Stanwyck's "greatest dramatic role," and represents a wonderful example of young Frank Capra still shaping his storytelling talents before they fully exploded two years later with the immortal It Happened One Night.

In 1910, Mr Eastman and friends returned on a chartered yacht for another month-long vacation in the wilds of Newfoundland. The two 100 year old photographic albums of these expeditions, housed in the George Eeastman Museum Legacy collection, were cataloged by Edith Cuerrier during her MA studies in 2009 and she will now introduce us to the nearly 300 seldom seen images Mr. Eastman and friends took while on vacation in her home province."
