  • MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES and CLASSICS June 24 - September 30, 1994
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release May 1994 MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS June 24 - September 30, 1994 A retrospective celebrating the seventieth anniversary of Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer, the legendary Hollywood studio that defined screen glamour and elegance for the world, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on June 24, 1994. MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS comprises 112 feature films produced by MGM from the 1920s to the present, including musicals, thrillers, comedies, and melodramas. On view through September 30, the exhibition highlights a number of classics, as well as lesser-known films by directors who deserve wider recognition. MGM's films are distinguished by a high artistic level, with a consistent polish and technical virtuosity unseen anywhere, and by a roster of the most famous stars in the world -- Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Judy Garland, Greta Garbo, and Spencer Tracy. MGM also had under contract some of Hollywood's most talented directors, including Clarence Brown, George Cukor, Vincente Minnelli, and King Vidor, as well as outstanding cinematographers, production designers, costume designers, and editors. Exhibition highlights include Erich von Stroheim's Greed (1925), Victor Fleming's Gone Hith the Hind and The Wizard of Oz (both 1939), Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), and Ridley Scott's Thelma & Louise (1991). Less familiar titles are Monta Bell's Pretty Ladies and Lights of Old Broadway (both 1925), Rex Ingram's The Garden of Allah (1927) and The Prisoner - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019-5498 Tel: 212-708-9400 Cable: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART 2 of Zenda (1929), Fred Zinnemann's Eyes in the Night (1942) and Act of Violence (1949), and Anthony Mann's Border Incident (1949) and The Naked Spur (1953).

  • MONTY PYTHON at 50 , a Month-Long Season Celebra
    Tuesday 16 July 2019, London. The BFI today announces full details of IT’S… MONTY PYTHON AT 50, a month-long season celebrating Monty Python – their roots, influences and subsequent work both as a group, and as individuals. The season, which takes place from 1 September – 1 October at BFI Southbank, forms part of the 50th anniversary celebrations of the beloved comedy group, whose seminal series Monty Python’s Flying Circus first aired on 5th October 1969. The season will include all the Monty Python feature films; oddities and unseen curios from the depths of the BFI National Archive and from Michael Palin’s personal collection of super 8mm films; back-to-back screenings of the entire series of Monty Python’s Flying Circus in a unique big-screen outing; and screenings of post-Python TV (Fawlty Towers, Out of the Trees, Ripping Yarns) and films (Jabberwocky, A Fish Called Wanda, Time Bandits, Wind in the Willows and more). There will also be rare screenings of pre-Python shows At Last the 1948 Show and Do Not Adjust Your Set, both of which will be released on BFI DVD on Monday 16 September, and a free exhibition of Python-related material from the BFI National Archive and The Monty Python Archive, and a Python takeover in the BFI Shop. Reflecting on the legacy and approaching celebrations, the Pythons commented: “Python has survived because we live in an increasingly Pythonesque world. Extreme silliness seems more relevant now than it ever was.” IT’S… MONTY PYTHON AT 50 programmers Justin Johnson and Dick Fiddy said: “We are delighted to share what is undoubtedly one of the most absurd seasons ever presented by the BFI, but even more delighted that it has been put together with help from the Pythons themselves and marked with their golden stamp of silliness.

  • A Fish Called Wanda Is a Much Funnier Title Than a Woman RROYO INO’S a V Called Wanda and That’S Comedy
    Even though we aren’t open on Sundays, we still have your dinner needs met with A Fish Called Wanda is a much funnier title than A Woman RROYO INO’s A V Called Wanda and that’s comedy. The film stars John Cleese of Monty Python, who also wrote the script and, SUNDAY DINNER AND A MOVIE yes, there’s a fish - and a woman - both named Wanda. The result is a classic comic farce in the league with The “A Fish Called Wanda” Producers, Bringing Up Baby and What’s Up, Doc? The plot is in the form of a heist movie that pits thief against 85 thief. Beware, all ye innocent bystanders! The cast is a British and American hybrid including fellow Monty Order Today; Pick-up Python member Michael Palin and, from across the pond May, 16, 2020 Jamie Lee Curtis and Kevin Kline. The alchemy of their 505.983.2100 performances is riotous. Please inform us of any allergies or dietary restrictions There is sharp, black humor in this movie and at times Murgo, Etna Bianco DOC, 2018 you’re almost ashamed you’re laughing at these characters. We were at a bit of a standstill when first trying to develop Michael Palin plays a shy, stuttering low-life, more at home the menu for this one. Though it is having a renaissance, with fish than humans, and as things heat up the stutter British food tends to evoke thoughts of boiled things and goes from slight, to acute, to hideous. Jamie Lee Curtis is a hearty roasts: not what one wants when the sun is shining long-legged, sassy siren in cahoots, and in and out of the and the weather is warm.
