American Woman: Reframing ’70s Cinema
November 14, 2025–January 4, 2026
Flipping the script on the venerated American cinema of the 1970s, this 27-film series retrains the spotlight on the women, both in front of and behind the camera, who equally made filmmaking what it was. This exploration of American cinema during the cultural ascendance of second-wave feminism centers on megastars such as Jane Fonda and Barbra Streisand and Diana Ross, critical darlings like Gena Rowlands and Barbara Loden, fiction films and documentaries alike. The series will be kicked off by an extended conversation with groundbreaking 1970s feminist film critic Molly Haskell and will feature a host of special guests and conversations around these unforgettable films, some of which remain controversial and provocative to this day, but all of which are classics worth seeing on the big screen. December/January titles include: A New Leaf; Breezy, introduced by programmer Cristina Cacioppo; Looking for Mr. Goodbar; Foxy Brown; Claudine; New York, New York; Lady Sings the Blues; and Wanda.

HIGHLIGHTED SCREENINGS AND EVENTS

SCREENING
Reverse Shot Presents: Catch Me If You Can
Friday, December 19, 6:30
Saturday, December 27, 3:00
Dir. Steven Spielberg. 2003, 141 mins. U.S. 35mm. With Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen, Jennifer Garner. A stealth Christmas classic of the twenty-first century, Steven Spielberg’s gripping and humane crime caper uses the improbable true story of con man Frank Abagnale Jr.—who impersonated a pilot, a surgeon, and a lawyer—as a springboard for a nuanced, often funny, and deeply personal drama about irreconcilable families. “A director’s captivating confessional disguised as a lambent crowd-pleaser.” —Fernando Croce, Reverse Shot. Screening Info

SCREENING
Breezy (screening introduced by programmer Cristina Cacioppo)
Saturday, December 20, 3:00
Dir. Clint Eastwood. 1973, 106 mins. U.S. 35mm. With Kay Lenz, William Holden. In Clint Eastwood's tender May-December romance, a free-spirited hippie named Breezy (Kay Lenz) enters the life of a lonely, middle-aged divorcé (William Holden). Initially dismissed upon release, the film has since attained a devoted following for its delicate evocation of an unexpected relationship. Written by Jo Heims (Play Misty for Me), Breezy is a cult classic that conveys a softer side of Eastwood's directorial vision. Part of American Woman: Reframing ’70s Cinema. Screening Info

SCREENING AND LIVE EVENT
Crossing Delancey (featuring a Q&A with screenwriter Susan Sandler)
Saturday, December 20, 3:15
Dir. Joan Micklin Silver. 1988, 97 mins. U.S. 35mm. With Amy Irving, Peter Riegert, Reizl Bozyk, Jeroen Krabbé, Sylvia Miles, David Hyde Pierce. This beloved gem is the ultimate New York Jewish romantic comedy. Amy Irving stars as Isabelle "Izzy" Grossman, an independent uptown professional whose world is carefully split between her trendy job at a fashionable bookstore and taking care of her wiseacre bubbeleh (grandmother) on the Lower East Side. Her meticulously maintained life is charmingly shaken when a matchmaker sets her up against her will with a kind, old-fashioned pickle salesman (Peter Riegert). With a brilliant, deeply felt screenplay by Susan Sandler and delicate direction from Joan Micklin Silver, Crossing Delancey is an endlessly rewatchable delight and one of the great New York films of the 1980s.

Gonzo stars as Dickens himself, with Kermit the Frog as Bob Cratchit, and a towering performance by Michael Caine as the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge.

Dir. Steven Spielberg. 1982, 115 mins. With Henry Thomas, Drew Barrymore.

After a mission goes wrong, Ethan Hunt (Cruise) is framed for the death of his team members and must uncover the true perpetrators. He is aided by computer hacker Luther Stickell (Ving Rhames), who would reappear throughout the franchise as one of Hunt’s key allies. Split diopter shots and epic set pieces abound as Hunt launches himself and his team into a globetrotting quest to uncover the mole in their midst, while hunting for information that will clear his good name.
