Jim Gaudet and The Railroad Boys musical performance
2017-09-09 21:30 - 23:30 (America/New_York) | Abilene Bar and Lounge, 153 Liberty Pole Way, Rochester, New York, 14604, United States
Jim Gaudet and The Railroad Boys make one feel as if they're traveling in time, maybe back to Louisiana in 1963. Mel Guarino of The Bluebillies said, "There is no other band that I know that can sound so modern and yet so classic and nostalgic. It's at once, "Old Timey" and "Timeless," echoing the sound and feel of maybe Hank Williams or the Stanley Brothers, with a "hill-billy" edge."

The Big Parade screening (2017-Sep-10 @ 2 p.m.)
2017-09-10 14:00 - 16:05 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen The Big Parade (King Vidor, U.S. 1925, 125 min., 35mm) as part of the WWI series.
King Vidor's poignant account of idealistic, naive John Gilbert's spiritual maturing in the trenches was the first and perhaps best American WWI epic, providing a supremely humane and unflinching view of the terrors to Americans who were uncertain of how to deal with the war's residual pain. It remains a brilliant piece of filmmaking and a celebration of inner strength and love that needs to be seen on the big screen. Special screening of a 1931 reissue print with a recorded soundtrack.

Ernest Hemingway's great novel was first translated to the screen in this powerfully memorable melodrama from Hollywood's Pre-Code era. Performers Gary Cooper and Helen Hayes bring to life the story of a tragic love affair between a soldier and a nurse during World War I. Recently preserved by the George Eastman Museum in collaboration with the UCLA Film and Television Archive, the film will be presented in a new 35mm print that showcases the vivid cinematography by the great Charles Lang, who won an Oscar for his achievement.

David Gilmour Live at Pompeii screening
2017-09-13 19:00 - 21:00 | Little Theatre, 240 East Ave. #100, Rochester, New York, 14604, United States
The Little will screen David Gilmour Live at Pompeii (Gavin Elder, Italy 2017, 100 min.)
45 years after Pink Floyd's David Gilmour filmed 'Live At Pompeii' in the legendary Roman Amphitheatre there, he returned for two spectacular shows, part of his year-long tour in support of his No.1 album 'rattle That Lock'. The performances were the first-ever rock concerts for an audience in the stone Roman amphitheatre, and, for two nights only, the 2,600 strong crowd stood exactly where gladiators would have fought in the first century AD. 'David Gilmour Live At Pompeii' is an audio-visual spectacle, featuring lasers, pyrotechnics and a huge circular screen on which specially-created films complement selected songs, but paramount above all is the astonishing music and stellar performances from an all-star band. The show includes songs from throughout David's career, as well as many Pink Floyd classics, including 'One Of These Days', the only song that was also performed at the band's 1971 show.

Liebelei screening
2017-09-13 19:30 - 20:53 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Liebelei (Max Ophüls, Germany 1933, 83 min., 35mm, German w/subtitles) as part of the WWI series.
This early work from celebrated German director Max Ophüls has all the elegance and sophistication of his later masterworks. Adapted from a play by Arthur Schnitzler, Liebelei is a classic tale of star-crossed Viennese lovers set against the backdrop of invisible World War I, but Ophüls's impeccable sense of style breathes fresh air into what could have been a fairly ordinary film in less-talented hands. Gorgeous camerawork and intricate set decoration combine to create this uniquely stunning film.

Chapter Meeting: The Lost Bird Project
2017-09-13 19:30 - 21:30 | Rochester Museum and Science Center (RMSC), 657 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
We are very likely to have unimaginable and unprecedented global human suffering from Climate Change, yet, so far, there has been no meaningful response to that threat. The answer to "why?" is multilayered and complex. Many believe that better communication of information, scientific facts, will help, but to date that has not seemed to help much. The Lost Bird Project, my non-profit based in New York, has taken a novel approach. Our mission is connecting more deeply to the earth through art. All of our many initiatives align with that. Parents care for their children in wondrous ways, often making very significant personal sacrifices, because they love their children. This is the deepest kind of connection. Lost Bird aims to foster a deep re-connection with the earth and our hope is that a deeper connection will lead to the activism we now so badly need. In this talk, I will present a few of our projects and show how we do that. Included will be two Rochester based initiatives, The Fast Forward Film Festival and Earth Vigil, I will present our documentary film, The Lost Bird Project, and Fold-theflock — The Passenger Pigeon Origami Project. Finally, I will present Smartfin, a technologically designed surfboard fin, that during normal surfing accurately measures ocean chemistry and wirelessly transmits the data to the worldwide ocean science community for research. If time permits, I will also mention our latest effort, a feature length documentary film, Rue des Elephants, that tells the story of the impending extinction of the African Forest Elephant.

2017-09-14 19:30 - 21:44 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Sergeant York (Howard Hawks, U.S. 1941, 134 min., 35mm) as part of the WWI series.
Alvin Cullum York, a third-grade dropout who found religion, vowed to obey the commandment "Thou shalt not kill." That vow put him at odds with the U.S. Army as a conscript in World War I. Turned down twice as a conscientious objector, York ended up being one of the most decorated heroes of the war. After years of refusal, York agreed that Warner Bros. could make a film of his life provided that no "Oomph" girl would play his wife, York's share of the film's earnings would be donated to a bible school, and Gary Cooper would portray him. When accepting his Best Actor Oscar for the role, Cooper insisted, "It was Sergeant Alvin C. York who won this award."

Ocean screening
2017-09-15 19:30 - 21:10 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman Museum (formerly George Eastman House), 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Ocean (Charles Atlas, Merce Cunningham, U.S. 2010, 100 min., digital) with Charles Atlas in person.
With Ocean, pioneering film and video artist Charles Atlas captures the breathtaking 2008 performances of Merce Cunningham's seminal dance work of the same title. Completed in 1994, Cunningham's 90-minute opus is an homage to composer John Cage and novelist James Joyce. Similarly, Atlas's film serves as an ode to his four-decade collaboration with Cunningham, who died in 2009, before the film was finished. Atlas's Ocean celebrates these histories and their relation to the intertwining of video, music, and dance.
