The Dryden will screen The Caine Mutiny (Edward Dmytryk, U.S. 1954, 124 min., 35mm) as part of the Senior Matinee series.
On the Pacific Ocean during World War II, Ensign Willie Keith (Robert Francis) reports for duty to the fictitious naval minesweeper USS Caine. The slovenly crew is soon put in order by new Captain Philip Queeg (Humphrey Bogart). A string of incidents lead many in the crew to believe that Queeg is paranoid and perhaps insane, culminating in a mutiny when they fear that the ship will sink during a typhoon. The film follows the story of the crew from sea to land as Ensign Keith and Lieutenant Maryk (Van Johnson) are tried for mutiny by a court-martial. Based on Herman Wouk's Pulitzer Prize—winning novel, The Caine Mutiny received seven Oscar nominations, including for Best Picture and Best Actor (Bogart).

2019-03-19 19:30 - 21:38 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Inherit the Wind (Stanley Kramer, U.S. 1960, 128 min., 35mm) as part of the Courtroom Dramas series.
Closely based on the Scopes "Monkey" Trial of 1925, Inherit the Wind relates the sensational trial of a young teacher, Bertram Cates (Dick York), who is prosecuted for teaching Charles Darwin's theory of evolution in a high school science class—a violation of state law. Three-time presidential candidate Matthew Brady (Fredric March) is the prosecutor pitted against the controversial and brilliant Henry Drummond (Spencer Tracy) as Cates's defense lawyer in a rhetorical battle between fundamentalism and science, while influential newspaperman E. K. Hornbeck (Gene Kelly) of the Baltimore Sun gives the case national coverage. Released during the McCarthy era, Inherit the Wind provided a means to critique the present through history; it remains one of director Stanley Kramer's most relevant and most controversial films.

The Dryden will screen The Bad and the Beautiful (Vincente Minnelli, U.S. 1952, 118 min., 35mm) as part of the Movies in the Movies series.
In this Academy Award—winning film by American master Vincente Minnelli, Kirk Douglas supplies "the bad," while Lana Turner, in one of her finest performances, provides "the beautiful." Douglas is hotshot movie producer Jonathan Shields, a nasty individual who claws his way up through the studio system, doing whatever to whomever. Through flashbacks, we witness the experiences of a director (Barry Sullivan), a writer (Dick Powell), and an actress (Turner) with the vicious Shields, as Minnelli paints a disturbing portrait of Tinseltown.

The Art of Being an Artist Lecture Series: Art and the Feminine
2019-03-21 18:30 - 20:30 | Flower City Arts Center (formerly Genesee Center for Arts and Education), 713 Monroe Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
While an Artist is many things, they are first and foremost a human being on a unique journey. Artists, as it is for all creatives, have the responsibility of simultaneously creating a culture and questioning culture. Art should make you feel, think and respond to the world in a different way after encountering it. Artists are healers, thinkers, and visionaries. In this series, Photography and Digital Arts Artist in Residence Megan May will take an in-depth look at several aspects of her own theory and practice of the Artists place in society today.
The Divine Feminine Principle is the primordial expression of creativity. She dwells in all of us. Recently relegated to a sidekick role as "the muse" in western history, the Feminine is re-emerging in the collective consciousness as a powerful force of change.
Please join us for an afternoon focused on the Feminine in Art, from neolithic goddess worship to the Feminist Avant-Garde of the 1960s through 80s to the present day Women of Color and Queer Artists changing and challenging the dialogue on race, gender, spirituality, and identity worldwide.

La mujer sin cabeza (The Headless Woman) screening
2019-03-21 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 La mujer sin cabeza (The Headless Woman, Lucrecia Martel, Argentina 2008, 87 min., 35mm, Spanish w/subtitles) as part of the Lucrecia Martel series.
Lucrecia Martel continues her meditation on class, family, secrecy, and guilt in her third film and final installment in her Salta trilogy, set in northwestern Argentina. Verónica (MarÃa Onetto) is an elegant, middle-aged woman driving home from a family party. Looking down for a moment to find her ringing cell phone, she hits something with her car. She brakes quickly, appearing to hit her head and suffer whiplash. Some children and a dog had been playing near a canal alongside the road, but Verónica drives onward after a silent pause. The mystery of the possible hit-and-run plays at the periphery of the film as the cinematography reveals physical, social, and psychological decay surrounding the dazed protagonist. Infidelity, cover-ups, and hushed questionings of memory and guilt serve as a veiled parallel to Argentina's history of repressive dictatorship and disappeared people.
