Our 6th Annual 35mm Film Festival returns on April 17th-19th! We are thrilled to welcome Turner Classic Movies host Alicia Malone as this yearโ€™s honoree of the Lou DiCrescenzo Cinematic Arts Award. She will join us in person as we showcase nine classic films from the archival vaults of national institutions like the Library of Congress, the UCLA Film & Television Archive, the George Eastman Museum, and more. Each feature is accompanied with an introduction and an era-appropriate pre-show of vintage snipes, trailers, and shorts. ๐—™๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ง๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐˜๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐Ÿฏ๐Ÿฑ๐—บ๐—บ ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜„๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ฎ๐˜ amblertheater.org/35mm
The last day of the festival kicks off with a stunning 35mm showing of UNDERWORLD presented with a live original score from renowned accompanist Ben Model.
๐—”๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฒ: This gritty, silent crime drama ignited the gangster genre and made a name for its then-unknown director Josef von Sternberg. George Bancroft is โ€œBullโ€ W**d, an unforgiving kingpin who rules the crime world in Prohibition-era Chicago. When a rival makes the moves on his girl, โ€œBullโ€ W**d goes to violent lengths to get revenge. Visually stunning with dazzling montages, experimental POV shots, and innovative chiaroscuro lighting, it is no surprise von Sternberg got his start as a projectionist!
