THE PASSION OF JOAN OF ARC (1928)⁠
Scored live by Rasaan Hakiem ⁠
⁠
Tuesday, September 22, 7:15 pm⁠
⁠
Renée Falconetti portrays Joan of Arc during her heresy trials, delivering what critic Pauline Kael called “the greatest performance in cinema.” Dreyer’s drama of martyrdom and transcendence is not just a silent-era masterpiece, but one of cinema’s greatest achievements.⁠
⁠
This screening will be presented with a live score performed by accompanist Rasaan Hakiem.⁠
⁠
This screening is presented in conjunction with a Cinema Classics Seminar taught by Jennifer Fleeger, Ph.D. ⁠

Exhibition on Screen – JAMES MCNEILL WHISTLER (2026)⁠
⁠
Sunday, September 20, 12:30 pm⁠
⁠
Considered by some to be one of the great innovators of 19th century art, James McNeill Whistler disrupted the strict conventions of Victorian society in pursuit of “art for art’s sake.” ⁠
⁠
With the Tate Britain hosting the first major retrospective of Whistler in three decades, audiences are reintroduced to the painter’s important influence on art history and the incredible stories behind his lyrical pieces.⁠
