Film | The Elephant Man (1980): Biographical Drama from David Lynch


A Victorian surgeon rescues a heavily disfigured man who is mistreated as a side-show freak. Behind his façade, there is revealed a person of kindness, intelligence and sophistication. Director: David Lynch Cast: Anthony Hopkins, John Hurt, Anne Bancroft, Freddie Jones, John Gielgud David Lynch was an American filmmaker, visual artist, musician, and actor. Considered one of the most important filmmakers of his era, Lynch was often called a "visionary" and was acclaimed for films often distinguished by their surrealist and experimental qualities. In a career spanning more than five decades, he received numerous accolades, including an Honorary Academy Award in 2019. The adjective Lynchian came into use to describe works or situations reminiscent of his art, with the Oxford English Dictionary noting his penchant for "juxtaposing surreal or sinister elements with mundane, everyday environments, and for using compelling visual images to emphasize a dreamlike quality of mystery or menace."

Film | A History of Violence (2005): Action Thriller from David Cronenberg


A small-town family man's idyllic life is shattered after he kills two men who attempt to rob his diner. (Rated R, 96 mins) Director: David Cronenberg Cast: Viggo Mortensen, Maria Bello, William Hurt, Ed Harris David Cronenberg is a Canadian filmmaker and actor. He's known as a principal originator of the body horror genre. Cronenberg is best known for exploring these themes through sci-fi horror films such as Shivers (1975), Scanners (1981), Videodrome (1983) and The Fly (1986), though he has also directed dramas, psychological thrillers and gangster films. Cronenberg's films have polarized critics and audiences alike; he has earned critical acclaim and has sparked controversy for his depictions of gore and violence. His films have won numerous awards, including the Special Jury Prize for Crash at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival, a unique award that is distinct from the Jury Prize as it is not given annually, but only at the request of the official jury, who in this case gave the award "for originality, for daring, and for audacity". Seven of his films were selected to compete for the Palme d'Or.

Talks on movies, the culture of cinema, and filmmaking. Hosted by Scott Adlerberg, film connoisseur. This meeting will focus on There's No Going Back: The Life and Work of Jonathan Demme  Jonathan Demme, one of the most influential and dynamic directors of the twentieth century, was a fearless and radical filmmaker, screenwriter, and producer―a compassionate artist, advocate, and humanist who was compelled to tell the stories of marginalized communities. His intense passion and appreciation of music, culture, and art were interwoven throughout his life and extraordinary body of work. Best known for Melvin and Howard (1980), The Silence of the Lambs (1991), Philadelphia (1993), and Beloved (1998), Demme was an Oscar-winning filmmaker with a recognizable style and voice.

"Taste, style, charm, singing, playing - as good as it gets!" - Michael Feinstein Daryl Sherman has been an integral part of the NYC jazz/cabaret scene since the mid-70s- and is one of the rare singing pianists equally talented in both roles. From early stints at Sinatra jazz hang-outs, Daryl also played most of the major NY hotels and became internationally acclaimed for a stellar 14-year run at the Waldorf-Astoria, where she played Cole Porter's Steinway. Her versatility has kept her busy performing and recording with artists such as Wynton Marsalis, Artie Shaw, and Vince Giordano and The Nighthawks.

Jazz | Piano in the Park: Internationally Acclaimed Jazz Musician


Come on down and swing along to the best ragtime, stride, and jazz the Big Apple has to offer. "Taste, style, charm, singing, playing - as good as it gets!" - Michael Feinstein Daryl Sherman has been an integral part of the NYC jazz/cabaret scene since the mid-70s- and is one of the rare singing pianists equally talented in both roles. From early stints at Sinatra jazz hang-outs, Daryl also played most of the major NY hotels and became internationally acclaimed for a stellar 14-year run at the Waldorf-Astoria, where she played Cole Porter's Steinway. Her versatility has kept her busy performing and recording with artists such as Wynton Marsalis, Artie Shaw, and Vince Giordano and The Nighthawks. Her newest release, Lost In A Crowded Place, highlights songs by Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, and Duke Ellington, as well as two Sherman originals.

Concert | "Queen of Salsa" Celia Cruz with GRAMMY-Winning Cuban Artists (outdoors)


For this centennial celebration of the Cuban "Queen of Salsa" Celia Cruz, three contemporary Cuban artists assemble to channel her spirit and honor her legacy. Isaac Delgado is a salsa singer from Havana who's performed with Orquesta de Pacho Alonso and NG La Banda. This group helped to popularize the then-nascent Cuban genre of timba, a sound that blends with salsa, American funk, R&B, and Afro-Cuban folkloric music. The singer, pianist, composer, and actress Aymee Nuviola--aka "La Sonera del Mundo"--is a decorated artist with multiple GRAMMYs and Latin GRAMMYs under her belt. She's also connected with Celia Cruz in a more literal sense, having played her in the Colombian telenovela Celia. Cuban singer and multi-instrumentalist Brenda Navarrete is an accomplished percussionist, distinguishing herself as an expert on the Bata. A long-standing member of Interactivo, a Havana-based musical collective led by the pianist Roberto Carcasses, she has also worked with the Afro-Cuban percussion troupe Obini Bata.

Upon seeing a chair with a gorgeous body - sturdy frame, meticulous handiwork, classic design - Camille, a woman who's never been particularly jealous of any other woman, realizes that she truly envies the life of a perfect piece of furniture. Its usefulness even in utter plainness. Its providing of comfort, relief to all who need it. Through the wishing magic of the enduring body-swap genre, Camille and this chair exchange form. So begins a nightmare of stillness and silence. A woman's being trapped inside of an object, an object's essence weighing down a woman's figure. Feminine rivalry and resentment taken to its most ludicrous, surreal extreme Director: Amanda Kramer Cast: Juliette Lewis, Mamoudou Athie, Melanie Griffith, Samantha Mathis, Robin Tunney, Udo Kier Seating opens at 7:00 pm.

Discussion | Prize-Winning Authors Discuss the Art of Translating "Difficult" Books


Translator and writer Max Lawton is joined by Pultitzer Prize winner Joshua Cohen and New York Times-featured writer Christian Lorentzen for a conversation about "difficult" literature, celebrating the English publication of The Sugar Kremlin by Vladimir Sorokin, translated by Lawton. They’ll discuss Sorokin as well as Schattenfroh by Michael Lentz, big books, weird books, and the art of translating them. Presenting a wide variety of genres and tones, The Sugar Kremlin lays out a frightening vision of speculative mercilessness and carnivalesque political horror. It takes place in the New Medieval universe over the course of fifteen chapters that all return to the object of the title: replicas of the Moscow Kremlin made of sugar. Thousands of these creations are given away to children during the holidays, then make their way through each stratum of Russian society. Readers follow the trajectories of these candied gifts from the hands of harried paupers to secret political dissidents, from torture-obsessed civil servants to sex workers in a nearby bordello... As Sorokin shifts from story to story and style to style, he draws the reader through grotesquely Russian scenes, creating an aberrantly metaphysical encyclopedia of the New Medieval "Russian soul." The candy's sweetness is deceptive—underneath it, you may detect notes of blood. Doors open at 5:30 pm.

Book Club | Dicuss the Book Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus


Join a lively discussion about the #1 New York Times Bestseller! Synopsis: Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with--of all things--her mind. True chemistry results. But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America's most beloved cooking show, Supper at Six. Elizabeth's unusual approach to cooking ("combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride") proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn't just teaching women to cook. She's daring them to change the status quo.

Tour | Dance Theatre Workshop Exhibition: A Place for Creativity & Experimentation


Take a tour of an exhibition to learn how Dance Theater Workshop grew from a need for space into a lasting model of support for artists. Dance Theater Workshop provided not only space to create, but also offered classes and professional development for artists, subsidized video recordings of performances, and gave artists administrative support. For many individual artists, it was the first time that they did not have to manage every aspect of a production by themselves, and this freed up time for creativity and experimentation. Over time, Dance Theater Workshop became a crucial venue for artists in the downtown scene. A number of choreographers now well known all over the world, including Mark Morris, Donald Byrd, Bebe Miller, and Bill T. Jones, all got their start at the Dance Theater Workshop. Dance Theater Workshop also provided funds and initiatives that helped these artists travel and exhibit their work outside of New York, and brought regional artists to the city. They also created the Bessie Awards, which recognize outstanding and groundbreaking creative work by independent dance artists in New York City.

Dreaming of a future beyond her family’s grocery store, she begins taking Spanish classes. As her language skills grow, so does the film’s landscape—from the stilted, awkward sentences of a beginning language learner to more complex ideas that incorporate love, identity, and dreams of possible futures outside of the prescribed norm.

Tour | Tour of Gracie Mansion, Home of New York's Mayors


In 1799, a prosperous New York merchant named Archibald Gracie built a country house overlooking a bend in the East River, five miles north of the then-New York City limits. Little did he know that, more than 200 years later, his home would serve as the official residence of the First Family of New York City - a place where history is made, not merely recorded. As a historic house museum run by the Parks Department, sitting on 11 acres of grounds now known as Carl Schurz Park, Gracie Mansion has served as the home of 11 mayors, beginning with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942. Each tour is one hour, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session with an assigned docent.
