Horrible Sites: Makeup and Production Design for The Exorcist
With material drawn from MoMI’s permanent collection, this exhibit explores the film’s production and makeup design, detailing how a stylish townhouse in Georgetown, Washington, D.C., and an innocent young girl were transformed into sites of horror.
Mr. Yellow Sweatshirt
Shot in the Roosevelt Ave/Jackson Heights station, this installation video captures the tide of New Yorkers streaming through an entrance to the subway system in what the filmmakers refer to as a “collective ballet.”
GLOBAL MODE >
Eva Davidova’s participatory installation playfully incorporates both ancient myth and contemporary reality, highlighting the theme of interdependent responsibility in the wake of ecological disaster.
Dissolution
David Levine’s Dissolution is a jewel-box sculpture that conjures the past and future of the moving image. A 20-minute film played on a loop, it draws on the central conceit of iconic 1980s movies and TV shows such as Tron and Max Headroom: human characters who find themselves dematerialized and confined within the interior worlds of electronic devices.
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
Perhaps the most faithful transposition of the Batman character from comic book to film, this animated film from 1993 screens on 35mm 10/28, 10/29, and 11/3.
Next Time We Love
In his first starring role, James Stewart plays a New York reporter separated from his wife (Margaret Sullavan) when he’s posted to Rome and she refuses to give up her acting career. Marsha Gordon will sign copies of her book Becoming the Ex-Wife: The Unconventional Life & Forgotten Writings of Ursula Parrott, after the October 28 screening.
Devil Fetus
Rarely seen stateside since its 1983 release, Devil Fetus is a zany, sleazy, and ambitious Hong Kong horror movie featuring stop-motion monsters, show-stopping makeup effects, and a scene-stealing, demon-battling, martial artist holy man.
The Exorcist III
Set 15 years later, the film follows Lieutenant William F. Kinderman (Scott) and his investigation of a string of bizarre murders around Georgetown that seem to link back to a long-dead serial killer.
So Much Tenderness
The latest from Canadian multi-hyphenate artist Lina Rodriguez is a sharply calibrated story of dislocation and exile, centered on an émigré whose hard-fought sense of belonging and empowerment is made tenuous thanks to forces from both the political past and cultural present. Director and producer in person 10/29!
