  • See It Big! Action Features More Than 30 Action Movie Favorites on the Big
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ‘SEE IT BIG! ACTION’ FEATURES MORE THAN 30 ACTION MOVIE FAVORITES ON THE BIG SCREEN April 19–July 7, 2019 Astoria, New York, April 16, 2019—Museum of the Moving Image presents See It Big! Action, a major screening series featuring more than 30 action films, from April 19 through July 7, 2019. Programmed by Curator of Film Eric Hynes and Reverse Shot editors Jeff Reichert and Michael Koresky, the series opens with cinematic swashbucklers and continues with movies from around the world featuring white- knuckle chase sequences and thrilling stuntwork. It highlights work from some of the form's greatest practitioners, including John Woo, Michael Mann, Steven Spielberg, Akira Kurosawa, Kathryn Bigelow, Jackie Chan, and much more. As the curators note, “In a sense, all movies are ’action’ movies; cinema is movement and light, after all. Since nearly the very beginning, spectacle and stunt work have been essential parts of the form. There is nothing quite like watching physical feats, pulse-pounding drama, and epic confrontations on a large screen alongside other astonished moviegoers. See It Big! Action offers up some of our favorites of the genre.” In all, 32 films will be shown, many of them in 35mm prints. Among the highlights are two classic Technicolor swashbucklers, Michael Curtiz’s The Adventures of Robin Hood and Jacques Tourneur’s Anne of the Indies (April 20); Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (April 21); back-to-back screenings of Mad Max: Fury Road and Aliens on Mother’s Day (May 12); all six Mission: Impossible films

    This list of 12 Christmas movies will bring you to tears and laughter as well as offer new insights into the meaning of life, love and living from your heart. Ranging from absurd to romantic, hilarious to heartfelt, you are sure to find a movie or two on this list that will suit your mood and cinematic preferences. 1. The Family Stone (2005) Starring :: Diane Keaton, Rachel McAdams, Sarah Jessica Parker, Claire Danes, Luke Wilson, Dermot Mulroney, Craig T. Nelson, + Paul Schneider This holiday movie is layered, heartwarming and full of humorous all-too-familiar family dynamics that will have you both laughing and cringing with understanding. It took me several views to absorb the complexity of the characters and intimacy of the scenes. Can’t recommend enough! 2. The Family Man (2000) Starring :: Nicolas Cage, Tea Leoni, Don Cheadle, + Jeremy Piven This movie is a modern take on A Christmas Carol, only it’s wayyyy funnier and far more romantic.
