As seen on the sprawling big screen, director Lean's action-packed depiction of the shrouded and legendary life of T. E. Lawrence (O'Toole) features some of the most sweeping and majestic views of the desert and war on film. This winner of seven Academy Awards is also a study of one of the most complex heroes the screen has ever seen.

Homeland: Iraq Year Zero screening
2017-06-04 14:00 - 19:34 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Homeland: Iraq Year Zero (Abbas Fahdel, Iraq/France 2015, 334 min., DCP, Arabic w/subtitles).
In February 2002—about a year before the U.S. invasion—Iraqi filmmaker Abbas Fahdel traveled home from France to capture everyday life as his country prepared for war. He concentrated on family and friends, including his 12-year-old nephew, Haider, as they went about their daily lives, which had come to include planning for shortages of food, water, and power. No strangers to war, the Iraqis thought they understood what was coming and could even manage to be grimly humorous about what they felt would likely be a major and lengthy inconvenience. And then, the war began. When Fahdel resumed filming in 2003, two weeks after the invasion, daily activities had come to a near standstill, the city had become overrun with foreign soldiers, and many areas of Baghdad had been closed off to ordinary citizens. Iraqis endure, seemingly as unwitting as Americans themselves about what further tragedy awaits. Fahdel's epic yet intimate film paints a compelling portrait of people struggling to survive while their civilization, dating back to ancient times, is destroyed around them.

Pretty Woman screening (2017-Jun-5 @ 1:30 p.m.)
2017-06-05 13:30 - 15:29 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Pretty Woman (Garry Marshall, U.S. 1990, 119 min., 35mm) as part of the Eastman Entertains series.
One of the quintessential romantic movies of the 1990s, Pretty Woman is a compulsively watchable and immensely entertaining riff on the ancient Cinderella myth of Prince Charming on a white horse. In a breakthrough role, Julia Roberts shines as a kindhearted hooker rescued by a wealthy businessman in the suave shape of Richard Gere. This colorful catalogue of irresistible clichés has charmed critics and international audiences alike, while acquiring the status of a proper camp classic in certain circles.

David Murray and El'Zabar Duo musical performance
2017-06-05 20:00 - 22:00 | Bop Shop Records, 1460 Monroe Ave., Rochester, New York, 14618, United States
For over 15 years, Bop Shop Records has had a happy and productive relationship with Aacm master percussionist Kahil El'Zabar. Going back to 2000 when he first brought his main band, the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble, to the atrium at Village Gate, he has graced us with several versions of his various ensembles. Earlier in 2016, we presented an edition of the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble featuring trombonist Craig Harris and baritone saxophonist Hamiet Blueitt. Back in 2001, we presented the duo of El'Zabar and violinist Billy Bang. But perhaps our most well-attended concert was a duet set with saxophonist David Murray in 2000. And we are proud that it resulted in the album We Is: Live At The Bop Shop, released on Delmark Records to great acclaim.

Fellini Satyricon screening
2017-06-06 19:30 - 21:39 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Fellini Satyricon (Federico Fellini, Italy 1969, 129 min., 35mm; Italian w/subtitles) as part of the Period Dramas series.
Of all Fellini's films, this is perhaps his most quintessentially Fellini-esque, consistently serving up grotesque carnival excess and spectacle. Loosely adapted from Petronius's lurid Ancient Rome farrago, Fellini Satyricon freely follows the alternatingly bloody and randy adventures of the young poet Encolpius (Martin Potter), whose desperate infatuation with an androgynous piece of jailbait (Max Born) gets him in all kinds of trouble.

2017-06-07 19:30 - 21:22 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Il Decameron (The Decameron, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Italy/France/West Germany 1971, 112 min., 35mm, Italian w/subtitles) as part of the Period Dramas series.
After a series of difficult and challenging films, Pier Paolo Pasolini achieved worldwide success with this erotic and comedic adaptation of Boccaccio's 14th-century story collection. With its clever script, a haunting Ennio Morricone score, and beautifully filmed locations in Naples, Ravello, and Caserta, The Decameron is easily Pasolini's most accessible and charming film. It is the first part of Pasolini's Trilogy of Life, which also includes The Canterbury Tales (screening June 8) and Arabian Nights (June 10).

2017-06-08 19:30 - 21:22 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen I racconti di Canterbury (The Canterbury Tales, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Italy/France 1972, 112 min., 35mm) as part of the Period Dramas series.
Pasolini worked with darker hues here than in the rest of his Trilogy of Life to adapt Geoffrey Chaucer's ribald epic. Capturing meticulously re-created settings in southern England, Tonino Delli Colli's rich cinematography incorporates the visual aesthetics of the great painters Giotto di Bondone, Peter Bruegel, and Hieronymus Bosch. The Canterbury Tales is the second part of the Trilogy of Life, which also includes The Decameron (screening June 7) and Arabian Nights (June 10).
