SUMMARY:DAYS
DESCRIPTION:You can watch DAYS right here\, right now\, in our virtual theater\n \n\nThe great Taiwanese filmmaker Tsai Ming-liang has been directing exquisite examinations of alienation\, isolation\, and the fleeting beauty of human connection featuring his muse\, Lee Kang-sheng\, for decades. His latest film\, DAYS\, will undoubtedly stand as one of his best\, sparest\, and most intimate works. Lee once again stars as a variation on himself\, wandering through a lonely urban landscape and seeking treatment in Hong Kong for a chronic illness; at the same time\, a young Laotian immigrant working in Bangkok\, played by Anong Houngheuangsy\, goes about his daily routine. These two solitary men eventually come together in a moment of healing\, tenderness\, and sexual release. Among the most cathartic entries in Tsai’s filmography\, DAYS is a work of longing\, constructed with the director’s customary brilliance at visual composition and shot through with profound empathy. \n\n\n\nAmong the most striking evocations of the quiet anguish of loneliness that any form of cinema can offer. — Glenn Kenny\, The New York Times\n\n\n\nPure rapture. A full body massage for the soul.— Jonathan Romney\, Film Comment\n\n

SUMMARY:In Balanchine's Classroom
DESCRIPTION:You can watch In Balanchine’s Classroom right here!\n \nIN BALANCHINE’S CLASSROOM takes us back to the glory years of George Balanchine’s New York City Ballet through the remembrances of his former dancers and their quest to fulfill the vision of a genius. Opening the door to his studio\, Balanchine’s private laboratory\, they reveal new facets of the groundbreaking choreographer: taskmaster\, mad scientist\, and spiritual teacher. Today\, as his former dancers teach a new generation\, questions arise: what was the secret of his teaching? Can it be replicated? \nFilled with never before seen archival footage of Balanchine at work during rehearsals\, classes\, and in preparation for his most seminal works\, along with interviews with many of his adored and adoring dancers and those who try to carry on his legacy today\, this is Balanchine as you have never seen him\, and a film for anyone who loves ballet and the creative process. (2021 / 104 min) \nFunded in part by the IU Jacobs School of Music.  \nALSO SCREENING IN OUR VIRTUAL THEATER: DAYS \n

SUMMARY:FAUCI
DESCRIPTION:September 24 and 25 at 6:45 at the IU Fine Arts Theater \nLast Chance! Sunday\, Sept 26 at 5:15 at the IU Fine Arts Theater \nDubbed “America’s Doctor” by The New Yorker\, Dr. Fauci has become America’s most unlikely cultural icon\, with his signature blend of scientific acumen\, candor\, courage and integrity in the face of COVID-19. At times he’s surprisingly funny. He’s been affectionately spoofed by Oscar winner Brad Pitt and memorialized by Fauci fans who’ve put his face on everything from coffee mugs to candles. He’s a tireless and effective communicator who has captured hearts and minds across the nation and around the world for his willingness to speak truth to power during an unprecedented pandemic. But less is known about the journey that led him to where he is today. (2021 / 105 min) \nFauci is screening in just a handful of theaters. We were chosen primarily because of IU’s nationally recognized stance on vaccination and mask mandates. \nTickets: only $8\n \n\n\n\n\nCovid Protocols: Filmgoers must be vaccinated and must show proof of vaccination. This includes IU students\, faculty and staff. (You can photograph your vaccination card and show it to us on your phone.)\nFilmgoers must wear masks in the theater. Seating will be capped at 35% of capacity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Never Gonna Snow Again
DESCRIPTION:Sept 12 — Last Chance! — at 6:45 pm at the IU Fine Arts Theater\n \nOn a gray\, foggy morning outside a large Polish city\, a masseur from the East named Zhenia enters the lives of the wealthy residents of a gated community. With his hypnotic presence and quasi-magical abilities\, he is able to get a residence permit and starts plying his trade. The well-to-do residents in their cookie-cutter suburban homes seemingly have it all\, but they all suffer from an inner sadness\, some unexplained longing. The attractive and mysterious newcomer’s hands heal\, and Zhenia’s eyes seem to penetrate their souls. To them\, his Russian accent sounds like a song from the past\, a memory of simpler times. Directed by Malgorzata Szumowska and Michal Englert (2021; Poland; 113 min) \nTickets: only $6\n \n\n\n\n\nCovid Protocols: Filmgoers must be vaccinated and must show proof of vaccination.

SUMMARY:GUNDA:
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Gunda right here\, right now \nExperiential cinema in its purest form\, Gunda chronicles the unfiltered lives of a mother pig (whom the film is named after)\, a flock of chickens\, and a herd of cows with masterful intimacy. Gunda is a labor of love by Russian director Victor Kossakovsky Using stark\, transcendent black and white cinematography and the farm’s ambient soundtrack\, director Kossakovsky invites the audience to slow down and experience life as his subjects do\, taking in their world with a magical patience and an other worldly perspective. Gunda asks us to meditate on the mystery of animal consciousness\, and reckon with the role humanity plays in it. (Kossakovsky jokes that he discovered Gunda on a Norwegian farm\, on what he refers to as “the first day of casting.”)  93 min\n \nGunda ― which doubles as the name of the movie and the name of the pig ― is as close as we may ever come to experiencing the world as animals do\, specifically the animals that become our food. –Boston Globe \n\nSPELLBINDING\, SUBLIMELY BEAUTIFUL and PROFOUNDLY MOVING\, Gunda offers you the opportunity to look — at animals\, yes\, but also at qualities that are often subordinated in narratively driven movies\, at textures\, shapes and light. These images testify that to see\, really see\, through the eyes of others\, four-legged or otherwise\, is to be fully human. CRITIC’S PICK! –The New York Times \n

SUMMARY:M.C. Escher: Journey To Infinity
DESCRIPTION:You can watch M.C. Escher: Journey To Infinity right here\, right now \nA staircase that leads back to itself; waterworks that move towards and away from the viewer at the same time; an impossible box: M.C. Escher’s artworks feature perspective impossibilities that are world famous. To the eyes\, Escher is simply a genius artist. But for art theorists\, Escher was never easy to classify. \nM.C. Escher: Journey To Infinity is the story of world famous Dutch graphic artist M.C Escher (1898-1972). Equal parts history\, psychology\, and psychedelia\, Robin Lutz’s entertaining\, eye-opening portrait gives us the man through his own words and images: diary musings\, excerpts from lectures\, correspondence and more are voiced by British actor Stephen Fry\, while Escher’s woodcuts\, lithographs\, and other print works appear in both original and playfully altered form. Two of his sons\, George (92) and Jan (80)\, reminisce about their parents while musician Graham Nash (Crosby\, Stills & Nash) talks about Escher’s rediscovery in the 1970s. The film looks at Escher’s legacy: one can see tributes to his work in movies\, in fiction\, on posters\, on tattoos\, and elsewhere throughout our culture; indeed\, few fine artists of the 20th century can lay claim to such popular appeal. \n \n\n\n\n \n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film? Maybe you’d like to write something for our magazine. Send an email to editor@theryder.com. We can be talked into almost anything.

SUMMARY:from France: THE SALT OF TEARS
DESCRIPTION:You can watch The Salt of Tears right here\, right now  \nVeteran filmmaker Philippe Garrel once again fashions a pinpoint-precise and economical study of young love and its prevarications\, which ever so gradually blossoms into an emotionally resonant moral tale. Photographed in black-and-white\, The Salt of Tears shares much of the sensibility of François Truffaut’s early romantic adventures starring the insufferable (and insufferably adorable) Antoine Doinel.  Impulsive and rakish Luc is in Paris only briefly\, to become certified as a cabinetmaker—but long enough to bewitch a young woman he meets at a bus stop. Soon he’s juggling three relationships.\nConstructed and composed with crystalline austerity\, and co-written with Jean-Claude Carrière and Arlette Langmann—who collaborated on Garrel’s last two films\, In the Shadow of Women and Lover for a Day—The Salt of Tears places one handsome young cad amid three vulnerable women\, mixes in a heady dose of narcissism and sprinkles in some de rigueur male compartmentalization. (100 min) \nCritic’s Pick! – The NY Times \n

SUMMARY:WOMEN COMPOSERS
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Women Composers right here\, right now\n \nWhen Leipzig pianist Kyra Steckeweh realized that her repertoire almost exclusively consisted of music composed by men\, she began searching for pieces written by female composers. Her research in archives\, libraries\, and publishing houses quickly brought to light a variety of remarkable piano pieces that have been buried in history and rarely performed. Steckeweh sees a lot of catching up to do\, which is why the focus of her piano recitals and recordings has since shifted to the music of women composers\, particularly Mel Bonis\, Lili Boulanger and Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel. \nWith these releases she has brought to our attention and delight three very different composers\, all of whom left a diverse body of work. In addition to the in-depth examination of the music\, Steckeweh\, as a pianist and historian\, seeks to look “behind the notes”: How did these women live? What barriers did they have to overcome and how did they manage to cope with the obstacles of their time? “Women Composers” highlights the historical and personal circumstances under which these three remarkable women created their works in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

SUMMARY:Bill Traylor: Chasing Ghosts
DESCRIPTION:You can watch this film right here\, right now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis illuminating documentary explores the life of a unique American artist\, a man with a remarkable and unlikely biography. Bill Traylor was born into slavery in 1853 on a cotton plantation in rural Alabama. After the Civil War\, Traylor continued to farm the land as a sharecropper until the late 1920s. Aging and alone\, he moved to Montgomery and worked odd jobs in the thriving segregated black neighborhood. A decade later\, in his late 80s\, Traylor became homeless and started to draw and paint\, both memories from plantation days and scenes of a radically changing urban culture. \nHaving witnessed profound social and political change during a life spanning slavery\, Reconstruction\, Jim Crow segregation\, and the Great Migration\, Traylor devised his own visual language to translate an oral culture into something original\, powerful\, and culturally rooted. He made well over a thousand drawings and paintings between 1939-1942. This colorful\, strikingly modernist work eventually led him to be recognized as one of America’s greatest self-taught artists and the subject of a Smithsonian retrospective. \nUsing historical and cultural context\, Bill Traylor: Chasing Ghosts brings the spirit and mystery of Traylor’s incomparable art to life. Making dramatic and surprising use of tap dance and evocative period music\, the film balances archival photographs and footage\, insightful perspectives from his descendents\, and Traylor’s striking drawings and paintings to reveal one of America’s most prominent artists to a wide audience. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCRITIC’S PICK! –The New York Times \n“An extraordinary artist…Traylor’s pictures stamp themselves on your eye and mind… (nothing) impaired the humor and subtlety of his imagination. Traylor’s art generates a presence at once mighty and fugitive\, forever just around the corner of being understood.”  – Peter Schjeldahl\, The New Yorker\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n  \n

SUMMARY:A Pigeon Sat On A Branch Reflecting On Existence
DESCRIPTION:You can watch “Pigeon” right here\, right now\n \nSam and Jonathan\, a pair of hapless novelty salesman\, take us on a kaleidoscopic tour of the human condition in reality and fantasy\, unfolding in absurdist episodes: a sing-along at a 1940s beer hall\, a randy flamenco teacher\, a thirsty King Charles XII of Sweden en route to battle\, and a mischievous metaphor for the horrors inflicted by European colonialism. It is a journey that unveils the beauty of single moments\, the pettiness of others\, life’s grandeur\, and the humor and tragedy hidden within us all. Written and directed by Roy Andersson (ABOUT ENDLESSNESS)  \nSweden / 101 min / in Swedish with subtitles\n \n ♦ What a bold\, beguiling and utterly unclassifiable director Andersson is. He thinks life is a comedy and feels it’s a tragedy\, and is able to wrestle these conflicting impulses into a gorgeous\, deadpan deadlock.–The Guardian \n ♦ The film is A MASTER CLASS IN COMIC TIMING\, employing pacing and repetition with the skill of a practiced concert pianist. –Variety \n ♦ Maybe if Wes Anderson and Lars von Trier tried to write a sitcom together\, the result would be something like A Pigeon Sat on a Branch. –Salon.com \n ♦ You just have to watch it\, then grab a net and try to coax your soul back down from the ceiling. –The  Telegraph \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:from Sweden: ABOUT ENDLESSNESS
DESCRIPTION:You can watch About Endlessness right here\, right now\n \nNo one in the world makes films that look like those of Swedish master absurdist Roy Andersson: intricately designed\, photographed\, and lit. His dreamlike movies are acclaimed for their deadpan comic timing and the visual inspiration of artists like Otto Dix and Edward Hopper.  Some of you saw his film A PIGEON SAT ON A BRANCH REFLECTING ON EXISTENCE when we showed it in 2015\, but just in case you missed it\, we are showing it again. \nHis latest\, ABOUT ENDLESSNESS (Best Director prize-winner at the Venice Film Festival)\, opens with a breathtaking shot\, inspired by Marc Chagall\, of two lovers hovering in the clouds. What follows is pure Andersson\, a succession of precisely realized\, blackly comic vignettes on the complexities of human nature: a priest loses his faith after recurring nightmares detailing his own crucifixion; a father stops to tie his daughter’s shoelaces in the rain; a man obsesses over a brush-off from an old classmate (“I can’t believe Svenker Olsson got a PhD. It’s really quite annoying”); a couple contentedly sips champagne to the sounds of Billie Holiday; a dentist walks out on a wailing patient and into a bar\, downing a drink as snow majestically falls outside; and that couple floats over a war-ravaged Cologne. Addressing the vexing qualities of existence\, Andersson mixes the challenges of everyday life with the flashes of beauty and grace we take for granted. \nSWEDEN / GERMANY / NORWAY       76 MIN       IN SWEDISH WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES \nAnother masterpiece of the human condition\, ranging from the evils of war to the redemptive power of love…What an amazing experience this film is. Andersson’s films are endlessly rewatchable. To view them is to abolish gravity. – Peter Bradshaw\, The Guardian \n

SUMMARY:Coming 06/30: GUNDA
DESCRIPTION:Tickets for Gunda will go on sale the day of show \nExperiential cinema in its purest form\, Gunda chronicles the unfiltered lives of a mother pig (whom the film is named after)\, a flock of chickens\, and a herd of cows with masterful intimacy. Gunda is a labor of love by Russian director Victor Kossakovsky Using stark\, transcendent black and white cinematography and the farm’s ambient soundtrack\, director Kossakovsky invites the audience to slow down and experience life as his subjects do\, taking in their world with a magical patience and an other worldly perspective. Gunda asks us to meditate on the mystery of animal consciousness\, and reckon with the role humanity plays in it. (Kossakovsky jokes that he discovered Gunda on a Norwegian farm\, on what he refers to as “the first day of casting.”)  93 min\n \nGunda ― which doubles as the name of the movie and the name of the pig ― is as close as we may ever come to experiencing the world as animals do\, specifically the animals that become our food. –Boston Globe \n\nSPELLBINDING\, SUBLIMELY BEAUTIFUL and PROFOUNDLY MOVING\, Gunda offers you the opportunity to look — at animals\, yes\, but also at qualities that are often subordinated in narratively driven movies\, at textures\, shapes and light. These images testify that to see\, really see\, through the eyes of others\, four-legged or otherwise\, is to be fully human. CRITIC’S PICK! –The New York Times

SUMMARY:STRAY
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Stray in our virtual theater right here\, right now \nStray explores what it means to live as a being without status or security\, following three stray dogs\, residents of Istanbul\, as they embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society. Zeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on adventures through the city at night; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds companions in the security guards who care for her. The strays’ disparate lives intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians with whom they share the streets. (72 mn) An interview with filmmaker Elizabeth Lo will follow the film.\n \nCRITIC’S PICK! Stray builds a subtle\, cross-species commentary that’s more than a little melancholy. While never directly political\, Lo’s camera is there when the animals encounter a women’s march for equality and\, later\, when the refugees connect with boatmen who share their own migrant past. The filmmaker’s eyes may rarely leave the dogs\, but what she’s really looking at is us. -The New York Times \n \n

SUMMARY:Jane Fonda & Donald Sutherland in: FTA
DESCRIPTION:You can watch FTA right here\, right now\n \nIn 1971\, at the height of the Vietnam War\, Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland toured an anti-war comedy show across Southeast Asia. It was directly engaged with and inspired by veterans against the war and\, naturally\, it upset U.S. military higher-ups. The F.T.A. tour (an acronym for Free The Army) was highly controversial and was a huge success among stationed soldiers. In spite of enthusiastic reviews and box office buzz\, the film version was quickly taken out of circulation due to political pressures and has been difficult to see for decades. \nA present-day interview with Jane Fonda precedes the film. \n“A genuine\, powerful and even stirring expression of the antipathy engendered by war…and scarred the psyches of those who lived through it.” – J. Hoberman\, The New York Times \n“F.T.A. has enormous contemporary resonance.” – AV Club \n“Sounding out a once-elusive call of defiance for all to hear…[Fonda] and her comrades loved the country that they devoted their energies and risked their reputations to better it\, their criticisms the ultimate act of patriotism.” – Charles Bramesco\, The Guardian \n“Holds up as a terrifically funny movie. Nixon might be long dead\, but if you want to sock it to him regardless\, be sure to check this out.” – Dan Schindel\, Hyperallergic \n

Sudan’s first Oscar submission\, You Will Die at Twenty is an auspicious debut and a moving meditation on what it means to live in the present.

SUMMARY:from France: UN FILM DRAMATIQUE
DESCRIPTION:You can watch this film right here\, right now\n \nShot over a period of four years\, Un Film Dramatique follows the creative intuitions of 20 budding Parisian artists at Dora Maar Middle School in Saint-Denis as they experiment with cameras on their own terms\, theoretically reflect on the medium\, and debate issues of ethnicity\, discrimination\, and representations of power and identity. \nCharming\, and deceptively simple\, the work’s political might emerges in small\, magical gestures. As the kids grow and mature\, the passage of time is felt rather than announced\, most notably in their increasingly sophisticated footage: bold\, courageous steps towards making work that matters to them\, that responds to their questions\, that confronts their place in the world. Neither documentary nor fiction\, the film poses a conundrum of what it is the students are creating\, individually and collectively. \nHumorous\, intimate\, and illuminating\, Éric Baudelaire’s film is a testament to cinema’s collaborative nature\, in which the young filmmakers become co-authors and subjects of their own lives. (in French with subtitles / 114 min) \nCRITIC’S PICK! With cameras in their hands\, they build their own records about what life is like in the suburbs. They dance\, they sing\, they offer house tours. Each child is confident\, curious and collaborative. It’s the cumulative effect of seeing the world through the eyes of these children that makes this movie so deeply joyful. – The New York Times \n \nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film? Maybe you’d like to write something for our magazine. Send an email to editor@theryder.com. We can be talked into almost anything. \n

SUMMARY:Black Lives\, Black Voices: THE INHERITANCE
DESCRIPTION:You can watch The Inheritance right here\, right now\n \n\n  \nCRITIC’S PICK! The Inheritance beautifully abandons genre to consider questions about community\, art and Black liberation. – New York Times (3/12/2021)\n \n\n  \nThe Inheritance is part of Black Lives\, Black Voices\, a micro-festival of current films by Black filmmakers exploring issues of racial justice and Black identity. Other films in the series include Our Right to Gaze\, Test Pattern\, and The Lady Who Swings the Band. \nAfter nearly a decade exploring different facets of the African diaspora — and his own place within it — Ephraim Asili makes his feature-length debut with The Inheritance\, an astonishing ensemble work set almost entirely within a West Philadelphia house where a community of young\, Black artists and activists form a collective. A scripted drama of characters attempting to work towards political consensus — based partly on Asili’s own experiences in a Black liberationist group — weaves with a documentary recollection of the Philadelphia liberation group MOVE\, the victim of a notorious police bombing in 1985. Ceaselessly finding commonalties between politics\, humor\, and philosophy\, with Black authors and radicals at its edges\, The Inheritance is a remarkable film about the world as we know it. (100 min) \n\n\nA FORMALLY AND INTELLECTUALLY PLAYFUL MIX OF DOCUMENTARY AND SCRIPTED FOOTAGE THAT INTERROGATES DIFFERENT FORMS OF BLACK RESISTANCE\, PAST AND PRESENT. — Justin Chang\, The Los Angeles Times \n \nA SUPERBLY INVENTIVE FILM. THE INHERITANCE IS A WORK OF THRILLING FORMAL AND POLITICAL ORIGINALITY. — Devika Girish\, Reverse Shot\n \nTHE INHERITANCE IS ALIVE\, DRUNK OFF THE COLORS AND TEXTURES OF WEST PHILADELPHIA. A JOYOUS CELEBRATION OF BLACKNESS. — Ryan Lattanzio\, IndieWire\n \nONE OF THE BEST MOVIES OF THE YEAR.

SUMMARY:MARY LOU WILLIAMS: THE LADY WHO SWINGS THE BAND
DESCRIPTION:You can watch this film right here\, right now\n \nMary Lou Williams: The Lady Who Swings the Band is part of Black Lives\, Black Voices\, a micro-festival of current films by Black filmmakers exploring issues of racial justice and Black identity. Other films in the series include Our Right to Gaze\, The Inheritance\, and Test Pattern.  The festival is funded by a grant from the Bloomington Urban Enterprise Association. \nMary Lou Williams was ahead of her time\, a genius. Her musical career began in the 1920s; in an era when jazz was the nation’s popular music\, she was one of its greatest innovators. As both a pianist and composer\, she was a wellspring of daring and creativity who helped shape the sound of 20th century America. And like the dynamic\, turbulent nation in which she lived\, Williams seemed to re-define herself with every passing decade. From child prodigy to “Boogie-Woogie Queen” to groundbreaking composer to mentoring some of the greatest musicians of all time\, Mary Lou Williams never ceased to astound those who heard her play. \nIn the 1950s\, jazz icons like Dizzy Gillespie\, Thelonious Monk\, and Bud Powell regularly visited Mary Lou Williams at her Harlem apartment to gain knowledge and inspiration. And in the 1970s\, after her conversion\, Mary Lou Williams took jazz in whole new direction—inside the Catholic Church. \nBut away from the piano\, Williams was a woman in a “man’s world\,” a black person in a “whites only” society\, an ambitious artist who dared to be different and struggled against the imperatives of being a “star.” Above all\, she did not fit the (still) prevailing notions of where genius comes from or what it looks like. Time and again\, she pushed back against a world that said\, “You can’t” and said\, “I can.” \nPrior to her career as an independent filmmaker\, Carol Bash worked in broadcast television at CBS News and the BBC. Currently\, she is developing Clean Justice\, a  feature documentary on the environmental justice movement; Coming To A School Near You\, a  short documentary on the impact of Betsy DeVos’ educational policies on the Detroit public  school system; and Blueprint For My People\, an experimental film exploring the history of African  Americans through poetry and rare archival images. \nDavid Brent Johnson\, host of Just You and Me on WFIU\, featured Mary Lou Williams oh his show. Here is a link \nLouis Armstrong\, for instance\, more or less ended his musical development while still in his 20s\, and held to the same style from the time of his heroic recordings made between 1925 and 1930 through to the end of his life\, in 1971. Duke Ellington\, a peerless composer as well as a great pianist\, reached a stylistic apogee in the early 1940s. But Mary Lou Williams\, in continuing to outdo herself\, also outdid these heroes of her time in several crucial respects: she played better in her 60s than she ever did\, reaching an artistic fulfillment in the 1970s. In this regard\, she’s unique in the history of jazz. In the music that she performed in the last decade of her life\, in solos\, duets\, and trios\, her originality and her passion\, as well as the depth of her experience\, come through in an awe-inspiring\, hands-on rush of pent-up and long-gestating creative energy. –The New Yorker\n \n\n\n  \n\nFUNDED IN PART BY A GRANT FROM THE BLOOMINGTON URBAN ENTERPRISE ASSOCIATION \n\n

SUMMARY:from Hungary: PREPARATIONS TO BE TOGETHER FOR AN UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME
DESCRIPTION:You can watch “Preparations” right here\, right now\n \nMárta Vizy (Natasa Stork) is a 39-year-old Hungarian neurosurgeon. After 20 years in the United States\, she returns to Budapest for a romantic rendezvous at the Liberty Bridge with János (Viktor Bodó)\, a fellow doctor she met at a conference in New Jersey. Márta waits in vain\, while the love of her life is nowhere to be seen. When she finally tracks him down\, the bewildered man claims the two have never met. \nLike Madeleine in Hitchcock’s Vertigo\, Adèle H. in Truffaut’s The Story of Adèle H.\, or the women of Kieślowski’s Three Colours trilogy\, Márta is a strong yet vulnerable force who anchors herself in her feelings when faced with uncertainty. \nFor her second feature\, following 2015’s The Wednesday Child\, writer-director Lili Horvát spins a delicate web of contrasts and silent explosions that shift the viewer’s understanding. Shot with impeccable symmetry on entrancing 35mm\, it is an Orphic tale reminding us that\, while the heart is an abstruse trickster\, the human brain — ruling us with over 80 billion interconnected neurons — is our most complex organ.  (Hungary / subtitles / 95 min ) co-presented by the IU Russian and East European Institute and the IU Inner Asian and Uralic National Resource Center \nA neurosurgeon pursues the man of her dreams in this simmering portrait of obsession by the Hungarian filmmaker Lili Horvat.

SUMMARY:from Hungary: DAMNATION
DESCRIPTION:You can watch Damnation right here\, right now \nA loner tries to win back his estranged lover\, a lounge singer in a bar named Titanik\, in Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr’s otherworldly film noir. Some of you may have seen Tarr’s classic\, 7-hour film Satantango when it was screened at the IU Cinema in 2019. Relax\, Damnation is a mere 1 hour\, 56 minutes. Originally filmed in 1988\, Damnation has recently been released in the States in a new 4K restoration by the Hungarian National Film Institute \nMade in 1988 but virtually unknown in the United States\, Damnation is the movie with which the great Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr fully became Bela Tarr. \nAside from a mayfly run some 30 years ago at Anthology Film Archives in Manhattan\, Damnation has been all but invisible. It’s a brilliant calling card. Its melancholy\, hurdy-gurdy score\, exaggerated sound design\, ritual ensemble dances\, inexorable camera moves suggest a dry run for Tarr’s 1994 masterpiece\, the immersive\, 7-hour Satantango — at less than one-third the length. – J. Hoberman\, The New York Times \n

SUMMARY:VINYL NATION
DESCRIPTION:WHY THE RYDER NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT TODAY \nBack in March\, when we made the decision to publish the magazine without ad revenue\, we thought the pandemic would be under control by September. Clearly\, we were wrong about that. Today\, with the end nowhere in sight\, we are asking for your support to publish The Ryder into the spring. Read more \n\nYou can watch Vinyl Nation right here\, right now \nThe vinyl record renaissance over the past decade has brought new fans to a classic format and transformed our idea of a record collector: younger\, both male and female\, multicultural. This same revival has made buying music more expensive\, benefited established bands over independent artists and muddled the question of whether vinyl actually sounds better than other formats. Vinyl Nation digs into the crates of the record resurgence in search of truths set in deep wax: Has the return of vinyl made music fandom more inclusive or divided? What does vinyl say about our past here in the present? How has the second life of vinyl changed how we hear music and how we listen to each other? Directed by Christopher Boone and Kevin Smokler.  92 minutes \n \nVinyl Nation – Trailer FINAL from California Film Institute on Vimeo. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHERE CAN I PURCHASE A TICKET AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY? \nDo you have a comment or a suggestion for a film? Maybe you’d like to write something for our magazine. Send an email to editor@theryder.com. We can be talked into almost anything.

SUMMARY:O Brother\, Where Art Thou? August 8th in Bryan Park
DESCRIPTION:A trio of escaped prisoners embarks on the adventure of a lifetime as they set out to pursue their freedom and discover buried treasure in the rural South in the 1930s. Endlessly surprising and as giddily and defiantly unclassifiable as all other Coen Brothers films\, O Brother\, Where Art Thou?  is\, among many other things\, a celebration of American music. With a score curated and produced by T-Bone Burnett\, the movie sings with voices and sounds of some of the best musicians in the country\, including Ralph Stanley\, the Fairfield Four\, Alison Krauss\, John Hartford\, Emmylou Harris\, and Gillian Welch\, and the melodies of classics like “Big Rock Candy Mountain\,” “I’ll Fly Away\,” and the film’s touchstone\, “Man of Constant Sorrow.” George Clooney\, Tim Blake Nelson and John Turturro star.  \nFree Screening Under the Stars in Bryan Park on August 8th. Bring a blanket. Bring a snack. Bring the dog. Bring hand sanitizer. Masks are required and seating is limited. Tickets of course are free. Our recent outdoor screening of Toy Story 4 sold out so you should reserve your tickets more or less right away. Here is the link.  He who hesitates is … how does that expression go? No matter.
