Tuesday Film View, The Innocents

Air conditioning

The Innocents (1961) UK | Gothic Horror / Psychological Thriller

Director: Jack Clayton With: Deborah Kerr, Peter Wyngarde, Megs Jenkins

Duration: 1:40 hrs. In English w English Subtitles

Programmer: Elías Nahmías

2:00 PM to 4:45 PM at JC3/Chesma Calle De Las Moras 47 (at 5 de Mayo) Tel: (415) 185-9191 Donation : 150 MX - 100 MX for members

Adapted from Henry James's novella The Turn of the Screw, The Innocents is a masterclass in psychological horror, ambiguity, and atmospheric dread. Deborah Kerr stars as a governess who becomes convinced th at the estate's two young children are being haunted by malevolent spirits. But as the line between the supernatural and the psychological blurs, the film invites a chilling question: is she protecting the children --; or harming them?

Director Jack Clayton's restrained yet eerie direction, combined with Freddie Francis's haunting black - and - white cinematography, creates an atmosphere thick with repression, guilt, and suggestion. More unsettling than explicit, The Innocents is a ghost story that lingers --; an explo ration of innocence, corruption, and the terrifying spaces between belief and madness.

Tuesday Film and Discussion: Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem (2014)

GETT: THE TRIAL OF VIVIANE AMSALEM (2014)

Israel/France | Drama
Directors: Ronit Elkabetz, Shlomi Elkabetz
With: Ronit Elkabetz, Simon Abkarian, Menashe Noy
Dur: 1:55 hrs. In Hebrew and French with English subtitles
Programmer: Elías Nahmías

"A gripping and poignant look at the fight for freedom within a system that silences women’s

voices."

Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem is a powerful courtroom drama that explores the complex
and often painful process of obtaining a divorce in Israel. Viviane Amsalem (Ronit Elkabetz) is a
woman trapped in a marriage to a controlling and unfaithful man, who refuses to grant her a
religious divorce, or gett. Set almost entirely within the confines of a courtroom, the film is a
tense and emotional examination of gender, power, and justice within the constraints of a
patriarchal society. Ronit Elkabetz’s remarkable performance as Viviane anchors this unflinching
portrayal of the systemic obstacles facing women in the pursuit of autonomy.

Following the film, there will be a discussion with Amy Cotler.
