Q. The wife appears in dreams, while the rest of the film is factual. He thought she wasn't covered enough in the history books and it needed an emotional connection. He might be doing a 9 hr film about her! He'll be back for another Q&A at the #AFISilver noon tomorrow.

Saw a special screening (thanks #AFISilver #SearchlightPictures) of #TheTestamentOfAnnLee who brought the Shaker movement to America. Fascinating picture by the scriptwriters of #TheBrutalist. Don’t expect a musical (music is good) do expect to see how religious fever can be drawn from experience)

At part of #AFISilver EU festival, Köln 75 is about Vera Brandes, & jazz. There's a great line about how America (in the 70s!) was finding artists too risky to promote, while in Europe, "they still have ears". Brandes was 18, when she organized Keith Jarrett's famous Köln Concert. Its a lot of fun.
Just saw this as part of #AFISilver #EUfilmFestival and it was great. Well worth checking out. What happens if you’re a famous actor and your president (for life) wants you to play him in a biopic. How long will your principles stand if they have your son? And other forces are at work?
✨ THE GARDEN OF EDEN (1928) — Newly Restored in 4K! ✨
A naïve Viennese pretzel baker. A scandalous nightclub audition gone wrong. A Riviera romance with secrets close behind.

This lush, late-silent gem from Oscar-winning director Lewis Milestone blends romance, reinvention, and Riviera mischief — all with the sly sparkle of a lost Lubitsch. 🌸 #SilentCinemaShowcase #AFISilver #FilmRestoration #SilentFilm

If it was playing tonight I’d totally stay to watch it before going to my hotel

Spent the morning (staycation) watching Ran on the big screen at #AFISilver. Still an incredible movie and one of the best portrayals of King Lear in cinema. Every shot is a masterpiece (and I still wince when I see the stuntman stepped on by the horses galloping). Ran means Chaos. Apt 4 the times.
A poster for the Japanese Kaiju movie "Mothra" posted on a cinema wall, the poster shows an angry insect face on a red background and the text "Mightiest monster in all creation! Ravishing a universe for love!"
Got home from a classic Kaiju movie at the #AFISilver, had dinner, and settled down to drink some sake and enjoy the opening night of #G1CLIMAX35. I admit it, I'd have no life without Japan
A view of the audience, although I missed the guard of honor
Captain Deb Belsky Walker and a Rear Admiral going through the retirement ceremony
One of the other things you can do at #AFISilver is holding a military retirement ceremony. It was a good choice.
Advert for Sinners in 70mm at AFi Silver - June 13-15 & 19
Back by popular demand!
#Sinners in #70mm still going strong at the local!!

Went and saw ‘A House on Fire’ at #AFISilver (part of their Spanish film festival). It was great, and if you can’t see it in theater, pretty sure it’s headed to Netflix. It’s a dark comedy about a family trying to sell their beach house and dark secrets spill out.
#AFISilver in #SilverSpring has #Sinners playing in #70mm
May 23rd to 26th.
For those in the #DC or #DMV area, #AFISilver in #SilverSpring has #Sinners playing in #70mm

If you’ve never been they have a lovely old art deco style cinema screen, and the projection is always top notch.
Think this will be a real treat!
Our local great institution, #AFISilver is offering $8 tickets to former federal employees.

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, that just won the Oscar for Best Documentary is playing at the #AFISilver in Silver Spring. Please watch it (still can’t get a nationwide US distributor)
Opening night at the Irish Film Festival at #AFISilver A documentary about former Irish President Mary Robinson, with a Q&A afterwards and a reception by the Irish Embassy. I'm assuming Guinness will be involved!
Years ago there were two places #AFIDOCS used to play. In Silver Spring at #AFISilver and at E St cinema. Unfortunately E Street cinema never recovered from the pandemic, and #AFIDOCS was suspended around the same time. So it looks like E Street will close next month.
Spending the day at #AFISilver watching the #Oscar shorts. At least that's the plan. The documentary shorts last three hours. Then we'll see if I have the stamina to tackle the live action shorts at 2:15pm.
A packed theater at Silver Spring's American Film Institute home.
Apparently there are a lot of people wanting to see the early screening of #TheBrutalist at #AFISilver. The screening is sold out.

A man in a red hat wandering the desert hits a bit differently now than it did in 1984. #afisilver #paristexas
In a completely different change of scene from the election, off to see the movie that inspired the creators of Batman, the silent 1926 movie, The Bat (with live music!). Having the #AFISilver nearby is a godsend (they are having a silent movie festival the next few weeks)
