Rolling Stone called Mitchell "one of the greatest songwriters ever" and her 1971 album "Blue" is often cited as one of the best albums of all time. Mitchell was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards in 2002.

In 14th-century Sweden, two goat herders assault a peasant girl. Later, the assailants seek food and shelter at the home of their victim's parents (Max von Sydow and Birgitta Valberg), who exact a cunning revenge. Bergman won his first Oscar for this deeply metaphysical film that undercuts the potentially sensationalistic material through its imagery, its allegorical undertones, and Sven Nykvist's luminous cinematography. Remade by Wes Craven in 1972 into a cult shocker The Last House on the Left.

2018-03-29 19:00 - 22:00 | Boulder Coffee, South Wedge, 100 Alexander St., Rochester, New York, 14620, United States
If this country is not ready for a dialogue about transgender issues, then a monologue will have to do. In Spy In The House Of Men, Penny tells the story of how she lived her first 54 years of her life as Brian, getting jobs, having kids, and generally being as much of a man's man as she could figure out—mostly by watching how other guys did things, without ever knowing why. It's a story of pain and shame, but also of discovery and ultimately joy, told with lots of humor by an actor, writer, and standup comedian who was voted the Funniest Man in Rochester in 1992 and no, she's not making that up. Stick around after the show for a 20-minute 'talk back' session with Penny!

Dev D screening
2018-03-29 19:30 - 21:54 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Dev D (Anurag Kashyap, India 2009, 144 min., 35mm, Hindi, Panjabi, English, French, Tamil w/subtitles) as part of the Stories of Indian Cinema series.
Dev D is an atypically subversive and audacious contemporary take on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's 1917 novel Devdas, one of the most popular non-epic Indian literary works. The existential angst of a reckless youth, inadvertently marching toward his doom, is captured poetically in this film, with the latent hope of how love (or the acknowledgement of love) can redeem oneself and impart meaning to the misery of being. The edgy score and effective use of songs (eighteen on the official soundtrack!) add thematic depth while imparting a constant rush—something that the lead character constantly yearns for. The film serendipitously gathered numerous creative artists together who continue to push the boundaries of mainstream Hindi cinema. Apart from the artistic and aesthetic achievements, the film effectively manages to raise and challenge the issues pertaining to present-day Indian society.

Charlie Hunter Trio musical performance featuring Silvana Estrada
2018-03-29 21:00 - 23:00 | Lovin' Cup, 300 Park Point Dr., Rochester, New York, 14623, United States
With a career spanning 25 years and almost 20 albums, Charlie Hunter consistently ups his game as an innovative writer and bandleader. He has worked with the likes of Norah Jones, Mos Def, John Mayer, D'angelo and countless others. He is widely considered the authority on the seven and eight string guitar, and continues to stun audiences with his ability to simultaneously bust out tasty bass parts, melodic leads and swinging rhythms. Silvana Estrada, a native of Mexico's southeast, had just started her studies of Jazz at the University of Veracruz and quickly became known throughout the Jazz Studies Centre as a unique triple threat talent: an instrumentalist, playing the Cuatro Venezolano, vocalist and songwriter whose original compositions are a mixture of Latin American sounds and a vocal interpretation that comes from the "son jarocho" tradition of Veracruz. On a whim after rehearsing one day, Silvana and the band took a road trip to hear one of their heroes; Charlie Hunter was in Mexico City delivering a Master Class at the University. Inspired (and pushed by Alex the drummer) the band waited to meet Charlie whereupon Silvana sang for him on the spot. Charlie was so impressed that he ended up staying in Mexico, calling his sound engineer buddy Chris Finney from New Orleans and together they went to Silvana's magical hometown in the Southeastern hills of Mexico to record her debut album Lo Sagrado (The Sacred) that will be released on Charlie's non profit 30 Amp Circuit later this month.
