Rbg is a revelatory documentary exploring Ginsburg's exceptional life and career from Betsy West and Julie Cohen, and co-produced by Storyville Films and Cnn Films."

Four Marx Brothers—Groucho, Chico, Harpo, and Zeppo—bring their biggest stage success to the screen, with predictably anarchic and hilarious results. The "story" begins with African explorer Spaulding's (Groucho) arrival at a posh party, leading to the theft of a valuable painting, but it's the nonstop one-liners, verbal tongue twisters, and frequently bizarre physical shtick that keep things moving.

In what is perhaps the definitive film noir, Robert Mitchum finds himself in an inescapable downward spiral after he meets up with his old flame (Jane Greer) and former employer (Kirk Douglas). Tourneur, one of the most poetic practitioners in genre filmmaking (Cat People, Curse of the Demon) makes great use of Mitchum's cynical, laconic presence. As the ads proclaimed: "It's like lightning kissing thunder when Mitchum makes love to a girl with a gun."

2018-07-25 19:30 - 21:05 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen The Wild Party (James Ivory, U.S. 1975, 95 min.) as part of the Parties series.
In a party only Hollywood could create, James Coco stars as a Fatty Arbuckle-inspired film actor who is attempting a comeback at the end of the silent period. He organizes a soiree to premiere a new film that he has produced with his own money and to interest studio executives in continuing his career, but as the party goes on and the alcohol flows, it turns into a bacchanal that will change his life forever. Loosely based on Joseph Moncure March's controversial 1928 poem, Ivory steps away from his traditional films to create a raunchy romp worthy of Tinseltown's legendary debauchery.

Jenny Lewis, Cut Worms musical performances
2018-07-25 20:00 - 22:00 | Babeville, 341 Delaware Ave., Buffalo, New York, 14202, United States
One of the most celebrated and respected performers of her generation, Jenny Lewis got her start as the dynamic frontwoman of influential La group Rilo Kiley in 1998. She has since released three albums under her name, most recently 2014's The Voyager. In addition to her solo work, she was a member of The Postal Service, part of the duo, Jenny and Johnny, as well as the lead vocalist for Nice As Fuck.
Cut Worms is the nom de plume of Max Clarke, assumed while studying illustration at Chicago's Columbia College. Relocating to New York City in October 2015, Cut Worms soon began generating tremendous buzz with the stark, timeless honesty of demo recordings as well as incomparable live performances, showcasing a powerful vocal talent equally compelling for its vulnerability, that calls to mind greats like The Everly Brothers, Harry Nilsson, and Buddy Holly.

Burt Lancaster (in his debut performance) is the Swede, a washed up boxer turned failed criminal waiting for death in a small-town diner. Edmond O'Brien comes to town as an insurance agent, tracking down the circumstances behind the Swede's death. His investigation leads him down the sordid alleyways of the Swede's life, charting his fall from legitimacy, his rise in the criminal underworld, and his obsession with an alluring Ava Gardner. Expanded from an Ernest Hemingway short story, the film is pure noir, but also explores the delicate nature of legacy and what remains when we leave this world.
