SUMMARY:Jason & the Argonauts
DESCRIPTION:We welcome you to join us in the Matthews theater on Saturday\, January 21 from 2-4 pm for a free screening of the 1963 film Jason & the Argonauts. \nThis cult classic was a leader in special effects for its time\, featuring the mind-blowing stop motion scenes of film artist\, Ray Harryhausen. Who can forget the incredible battle against the skeleton army? \n[arve url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfedvthepRs” loop=”no” muted=”no” /] \nAs told by the original Greek epic\, Jason and his crew set sail in search of the legendary Golden Fleece. The first stop made by the Argonauts\, Jason’s crew of highly skilled warriors\, is to an island populated solely by women who\, unknown to Jason and his men\, had killed their husbands. \nAfter the first of many adventures\, Jason and the Argonauts come to the Straits of Bosphorus\, known to the Greeks as the end of the world. The Greeks believed this to be a perilous location and trusted that the rocks would crash into and ships that made an attempt to pass. However\, Jason had earlier helped a prophet who instructed him to send a bird ahead\, allowing the rocks to reopen for his ship instead of crashing into it. \nAt the almost-end of his journey\, Jason is faced with yet another set of challenges given to him by King Aietes\, the holder of the Golden Fleece. Given a list of tasks deemed to be impossible\, Jason accomplishes them all with the help of one person- Medea\, the daughter of King Aietes. Medea had taken a liking to Jason and offered her help in these challenges in exchange for him agreeing to marry her. \nJason and Medea return to Greece to reclaim his fathers throne\, but their success is short-lived. They become exiled to Corinth where Jason\, breaking his promise to the gods to only be true to Medea\, accepts the offer of the king for his daughters hand in marriage. Medea\, enraged by the exchange\, proceeds to kill all the women\, and her children with Jason. She later finds her way to marriage with Achilles on Mount Olympus. \n  \nAbout the NEA Big Read\nThe National Endowment for the Arts Big Read\, a partnership with Arts Midwest\, broadens our understanding of our world\, our communities\, and ourselves through the joy of sharing a good book.

Now\, at 84\, she has found it\, and she wants Evan O’Neill\, the diligent retired manager of a grocery store\, to help her steal it back. But is it truly the painting she hungers for?

Castle\,  Christina D. King\n\n“Warrior Women” is the story of mothers and daughters fighting for Native rights in the American Indian Movement of the 1970s. The film unveils not only a female perspective of history\, but also examines the impact political struggles have on the children who bear witness. In the 1970s\, with the swagger of unapologetic Indianness\, organizers of the American Indian Movement (AIM) fought for Native liberation and survival as a community of extended families. \nWarrior Women is the story of Madonna Thunder Hawk\, one such AIM leader who shaped a kindred group of activists’ children – including her daughter Marcy – into the “We Will Remember” Survival School as a Native alternative to government-run education. Together\, Madonna and Marcy fought for Native rights in an environment that made them more comrades than mother-daughter. Today\, with Marcy now a mother herself\, both are still at the forefront of Native issues\, fighting against the environmental devastation of the Dakota Access Pipeline and for Indigenous cultural values. \nThrough a circular Indigenous style of storytelling\, this film explores what it means to navigate a movement and motherhood and how activist legacies are passed down and transformed from generation to generation in the context of colonizing government that meets Native resistance with violence. \nWatch trailer and find out more

Leaning into the Wind – Andy Goldsworthy follows Andy on his exploration of the layers of his world and the impact of the years on himself and his art. As Goldsworthy introduces his own body into the work it becomes at the same time even more fragile and personal and also sterner and tougher\, incorporating massive machinery and crews on his bigger projects. Riedelsheimer’s exquisite film illuminates Goldsworthy’s mind as it reveals his art.

SUMMARY:MOVIE NIGHT: "The Maltese Falcon" (1941)
DESCRIPTION:Image courtesy mptvimages.com\nAdmission by donation. Popcorn and cash bar will be available before the show. \nDo you know that this is the 75th anniversary of the release of “The Maltese Falcon?”  Originally released in 1941\, it starred Humphrey Bogart and Mary Astor\, and was directed by John Huston.  \nPLOT“Spade and Archer” is the name of a San Francisco detective agency. That’s for Sam Spade and Miles Archer. The two men are partners\, but Sam doesn’t like Miles much. A knockout\, who goes by the name of Miss Wonderly\, walks into their office; and by that night\, everything’s changed. Miles is dead. And so is a man named Floyd Thursby. It seems Miss Wonderly is surrounded by dangerous men. \nThere’s Joel Cairo\, who uses gardenia-scented calling cards. There’s Kasper Gutman\, with his enormous girth and feigned civility. Her only hope of protection comes from Sam\, who is suspected by the police of one or the other murder. More murders are yet to come\, and it will all be because of these dangerous men — and their lust for a statuette of a bird: the Maltese Falcon. \nWritten by J. Spurlin from IMDB.com \n  \n  \nThe Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts in partnership with Arts Midwest.  \n

But while attending the wedding of a friend\, Lalita meets Will Darcy\, a college buddy of family friend Raj who is the son of a wealthy hotel magnate.

SUMMARY:Foreign Film Festival: Monsoon Wedding
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n$8 all seats or $25 for Producer’s Pass (4 tickets).  The Producer’s Pass MUST be purchased in advance. \nCAST\nNaseeruddin Shah\, Lillete Dubey\, Shefali Shetty\, Vijay Raaz\, Tilotama Shome\, Vasundhara Das \nFocus Features\nDirected by: Mira Nair\nAuthor: Jonathan Crow\nRated R; 180 minutes; 2001 \nWith English subtitles.\nFollowing up on her controversial erotic drama Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love\, Mira Nair directs this charming family drama about a very chaotic Indian wedding. Lalit Verma is a wealthy father who is trying to see that his daughter Aditi’s wedding goes off without a hitch. Though familiar with Western ways\, he has little patience with them and is dead set on seeing the nuptials done properly and traditionally. Disillusioned with her long time relationship with Vikram — a man who is almost twice her age — Aditi suddenly agrees to submit to an arranged marriage with Hemant\, an engineer from Houston. Yet as the ceremony nears\, she gets cold feet and returns to see her former lover — even though it could spell disaster for everyone involved. Meanwhile\, Aditi’s comely 17-year-old cousin Ayesha is coming to terms with her blossoming sexuality and has her sights set on Rahul\, another relative who is a college student in Australia. Then there is Rai — also Aditi’s cousin — who has a shocking revelation to make. \nAt Venice\, Monsoon Wedding won the prestigious Golden Lion award. \n
