Q&A with USC Cinema & Media Studies Associate Professor Lan Duong and chef Minh Phan, moderated by UCLA Assistant Professor Thuy Vo Dang, Information Studies and Asian American Studies. Admission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. The Scent of Green Papaya France, 1993 Writer-director Tr?n Anh Hùng won the Caméra d’Or at Cannes for his debut feature, The Scent of Green Papaya, a luminous portrait of the sensuous world as experienced by Mùi, a young servant girl to a troubled, middle-class family, in 1950s Saigon. Taking up her duties as a child, Mùi marvels at the small wonders that suffuse the open-air home — raindrops glistening on leaves, the hum of insects, the scent of papaya in the courtyard. Preparing and sharing meals becomes central to her attunement with the rhythms of nature and family life, as well as Hùng’s larger meditation on memory, desire and the grace of the everyday.—Senior Public Programmer Paul Malcolm 35mm, color, in Vietnamese with English subtitles, 104 min.

I May Destroy You

Time Sun 11/16 • 7PM PST

Billy Wilder Theater at the Hammer Museum

In-person: Professor Kathleen McHugh, UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television, will give a brief talk before the screening. Q&A to follow screening. Admission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. I May Destroy You U.K., 2020 Michaela Coel’s I May Destroy You is a radical, genre-defying exploration of trauma, consent and creative survival in the post-#MeToo era. Professor Kathleen McHugh’s latest research on women and anger explores the topic through the series, which, McHugh argues, channels Coel’s anger as both trauma response and creative force. The result: a bold, complex portrait of survival, consent and artistic self-possession. Inspired by Coel’s own experience of assault, the series follows Arabella, a rising writer whose rape during a night out shatters her sense of reality. In Episode 1, Arabella vanishes into the night, only to wake with no memory and a wound on her forehead. Episode 9 explores how her growing online presence alienates those closest to her. The finale imagines alternate confrontations with her rapist before Arabella ultimately reclaims her narrative. Formally daring and emotionally fearless, Coel’s series resists tidy resolutions, instead offering a bold meditation on self-preservation and the messy, nonlinear work of healing. Professor McHugh will give a brief talk, followed by a screening and on-stage conversation. Episode 1: “Eyes Eyes Eyes Eyes” Digital video, color, 30 min. Max. Director: Sam Miller. Screenwriters: Michaela Coel, Sherie Myers, Stephanie Yamson. With: Michaela Coel, Weruche Opia, Paapa Essiedu, Marouane Zotti, Stephen Wight.

Scotland's Gutenberg: William Ged and the Invention of Stereotype Printing 1725-49

Time Wed 11/19 • 4PM - 5:30PM PST

UCLA William Andrews Clark Memorial Library & via Livestream

Twentieth Kenneth Karmiole Lecture on the History of the Book Trade, Lecture by William Zachs, Director of the Blackie House Library and Museum. In this lecture, William Zachs outlines the origins of stereotype printing (print production from metal plates rather than moveable type), then turns his focus to the “non-moveable type” productions of Edinburgh goldsmith William Ged (c. 1683–1749). Taking a forensic look at Ged’s few known works, Zachs hypothesizes the existence of a group of previously unknown stereotyped books, thus offering a revised history of alternative methods of book production in Britain in the first half of the 18th century.

Time Fri 11/21 • 7:30PM PST

In-person: Q&A with cartoonist and illustrator Nathan Gelgud and filmmaker Jean-Pierre Gorin. Admission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. La Chinoise France, 1967 A major influence on Nathan Gelgud’s book Reel Politik, Jean-Luc Godard’s La Chinoise follows a group of students who form a Maoist revolutionary group over their summer vacation. No lazy bunch, they start each day with calisthenics and slogans before a crowded schedule of Maoist lectures and discussions they lead themselves. Like the theater workers in Reel Politik, they learn revolution as they go. Boldly designed and obliquely stated, the film itself doubles as a catalog of its own political and aesthetic influences, with a regular stream of propaganda posters, comic books, news photos, book covers and slogans filling the frame like a cinematic syllabus for radical home schooling.—Senior Public Programmer Paul Malcolm DCP, color, in French with English subtitles, 96 min. Director/Screenwriter: Jean-Luc Godard. With: Anne Wiazemsky, Jean-Pierre Léaud, Juliet Berto. Part of: Reel Politik: Seizing the Means of Projection With Nathan Gelgud

The Best of Ralph Story's Los Angeles

Time Sat 11/22 • 7:30PM PST

Billy Wilder Theater at the Hammer Museum

Made possible by the John H. Mitchell Television Programming Endowment In-person: Joe Saltzman, Alison Martino. Admission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. Premiering in 1964 on CBS affiliate KNXT (now KCBS), Ralph Story’s Los Angeles (1964–69) remains one of the most fondly remembered series in L.A. television history (and one of the most requested items in the UCLA Film & Television Archive’s collections). Created by Dan Gingold (of KNXT's historic The Big News broadcast), the locally produced Ralph Story’s Los Angeles explored the history, personalities and landmarks of L.A. in one of the first newsmagazine-styled programs on television. Foregrounding the warm, wry personality of newsman and commentator Ralph Story, the local Emmy-winning series earned high television ratings, often outperforming network programs in prime time. In later years, the innovative series inspired an entire genre of popular local TV programs covering the unique landscape of Los Angeles, including Visiting With Huell Howser. Today, the surviving episodes of Ralph Story's Los Angeles represent an invaluable moving image archival record of an evolving L.A. as it stood at mid-century. Join us for a reprise of a specially curated best of Ralph Story’s Los Angeles omnibus, last presented a decade ago to a sold-out crowd at the Archive’s This Is the City symposium. Featuring excerpts and complete episodes documenting such iconic locales as Angels Flight, Clifton’s Cafeteria, Disneyland at night, Sunset Boulevard, the long lost landmarks Hollywood Ranch Market and Beverly Park, and more! With in-person guests Joe Saltzman, producer of Ralph Story’s Los Angeles, and historian Alison Martino of Vintage Los Angeles. Before the screening in the lobby, there will be a display of a selection of archival materials from the Ralph Story papers in UCLA Library Special Collections. Programmed and notes written by John H. Mitchell Television Curator Mark Quigley. Ralph Story’s Los Angeles U.S, 1965–69 DCP, b&w and color, approx. 110 min. KNXT. Executive producer: Dan Gingold. Producer: Joe Saltzman. Director: Jim Johnson. Writer: Jere Witter, Nate Kaplan. Angels Flight segment: Executive producer: Joe Sands. Producer: Dan Gingold. Director: Dan Gingold. Writers: Jere Witter, Nate Kaplan. Preserved by the UCLA Film & Television Archive. Video transfers at DC Video; engineering services by David Crosthwait. Additional transfers at CBS Media Exchange. Special thanks to Paul Button, KCBS. Part of: Archive Television Treasures
