2019-04-13 19:30 - 21:30 | Robert F. Panara Theatre, 52 Lomb Memorial Dr. RIT Campus, Henrietta, New York, 14623, United States
"Fences" is a play written by August Wilson that has been described in the New York Post as "One of the richest experiences I have ever had in theatre. I wasn't just moved, I was transfixed." and in New York Daily News as "A blockbuster and a major American play." This sensational drama features Troy Maxson, a former star of the Negro baseball leagues who works as a garbage man in 1957 Pittsburgh. Excluded as a black man from the major leagues during his prime, Troy's bitterness takes its toll on his relationships with his wife and his son, who now wants his own chance to play ball.

Judgment at Nuremberg screening
2019-04-13 19:30 - 22:36 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Judgment at Nuremberg (Stanley Kramer, U.S. 1961, 186 min., 35mm) as part of the Courtroom Dramas series.
Stanley Kramer's cinema of social consciousness turns its focus to the cause and effects of fascism. Kramer fictionalizes the Judges' Trial of 1947, in which German judges and prosecutors were brought in front of a military tribunal for war crimes against their own country. Spencer Tracy leads an all-star cast as the Chief Trial Judge on a panel of three as he hears testimony and conducts his own investigation into how these actions could have taken place in a modern society. Among the cast, Maximilian Schell won the Academy Award for Best Actor; Tracy, Montgomery Clift, and Judy Garland received nominations; and Marlene Dietrich, Burt Lancaster, and Richard Widmark turned in great (if less lauded) performances.

2019-04-15 13:30 - 15:17 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States

Douglas Fairbanks, the screen's first action superstar, stars as Don Diego Vega—aka Zorro—the witty, sword-wielding masked champion of the oppressed in old Spanish California. This first screen adaptation finds Vega returning from Spain, only to bristle at the tactics of the tyrannical Governor Alvarado. As Zorro, Vega steals from the rich and gives to the poor, while winning the heart of his oblivious fiancée. The enormous success of Zorro paved the way for a series of more smash hit swashbucklers starring Fairbanks, like Robin Hood, The Thief of Baghdad, and The Black Pirate.

2019-04-15 21:00 - 23:00 | Bug Jar, 219 Monroe Ave, Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
EMDR, started by Julia Egan, is a collective based out of Rochester, NY. She started the project in 2018 to open up the narrative about PTSD examining this in five EPs that follow the five stages of grief. 'The music itself is very cyclical. I wrote a lot of the songs with the electric guitar and the loop pedal in mind to recreate the cycles and processes I dealt with internally. I think today, even people who don't have PTSD or haven't experienced any kind of abuse, but feel a disconnect from genuine human interactions and reality, are gaslighting their sense of self and togetherness; The project is meant to help overcome some of those introspective and interpersonal obstacles and help create a sense of togetherness that we don't always feel especially now in the digital age. I really hope the project helps raise awareness to people's humanity but also our own awareness those around us who are trying to encourage our self-worth. So yeah let's do it.'

Days of Heaven
2019-04-16 19:30 - 21:04 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Days of Heaven (Terrence Malick, U.S. 1978, 94 min., 35mm) as part of the Morricone×2 series.
Ennio Morricone composed three primary themes for Terrence Malick's film—a French-inspired Main Theme, a sweeping pastoral theme featuring the flute, and the haunting love theme for our protagonists (Richard Gere, Brooke Adams). Gere plays Bill, on the run from Chicago to the Texas panhandle in 1914. Along with him are his girlfriend Abby (Adams) and younger sister Linda. They take seasonal work with a farmer (Sam Shepard) who doesn't have long to live. Bill convinces Abby to marry the farmer so they can inherit the land and stay there forever. Nestor Almendros, a favorite cinematographer of both FranÃ§ois Truffaut and Ã‰ric Rohmer, combines his talents with those of Malick and Morricone to create one of the great elegies for the idealized American frontier.
