Sunday Night Film Forums @ JCAS

Cutting-edge filmmaker Maya Deren redefined American experimental film in the 1940s and 50s with her silent shorts that explored human identity and ritual through dreamlike symbols and visuals. She traveled within the burgeoning New York City avant-garde movement, collaborating with several heavy hitters on projects. Hugely influential, Deren was the first filmmaker to win a Guggenheim fellowship and paved the way for future boundary-pushing filmmakers such as Stan Brakhage and David Lynch.

This forum will include three of Deren’s films: At Land (1944), Ritual in Transfigured Time (1946), and her masterpiece, Meshes of the Afternoon (1943).

Film: 1776 at LITM

'The film version of the Broadway musical comedy of the same name. In the days leading up to July 4, 1776, Continental Congressmen John Adams and Benjamin Franklin coerce Thomas Jefferson into writing the Declaration of Independence as a delaying tactic as they try to persuade the American colonies to support a resolution on independence. As George Washington sends depressing messages describing one military disaster after another, the businessmen, landowners and slave holders in Congress all stand in the way of the Declaration, and a single 'nay' vote will forever end the question of independence. Large portions of spoken and sung dialog are taken directly from the letters and memoirs of the actual participants.'
