Screenings
– Monsters Inc. will be screened at the Museum of Modern Art tomorrow, Sunday, July 2 at 2:00 and Monday, July 3 at 4:30.
It’ll give you a chance to compare this film full of bipedal creatures to the rubber-tired ones in Cars. Technically, Monsters Inc. introduced delicately flowing hair to computer animation; Cars introduced full-wheel traction (not to mention Larry the Cable Guy).
This is part of a program of preserved films from the Museum’s archives. The list of recent films to be screened is an impressive one. A good way to spend some of these rainy days in NYC. The Straight Story, The Man Who Laughs, and Avalon are among those to be presented over the next couple of weeks.
- Also a reminder that the end of July brings more screenings of their CalArts in Moving Picturesprogram. Keep your datebook handy. Films by Eric Darnell, Stephen Hillenburg, Doug Vitarelli and Craig McCracken can be seen on July 30th. Many other interesting films are also on the schedule including those by: Steve Subotnick, Joanna Priestly and Maureen Selwood. A lot of talent went through that school.
