Director Julien Duvivier lends cohesion and grace to the star-studded anthology. James Baldwin praised Ginger Rogers’ performance, describing her face as “something to be placed in a dish and eaten with a spoon, possibly a long one.”—Public Programmer Beandrea July DCP, b&w, 118 min.

Psychedelic Noir: Dragnet 1967-68

Time Sat 8/9 • 7:30PM PDT

Billy Wilder Theater

Part of: Archive Television Treasures Presented by the UCLA Film & Television Archive and made possible by the John H. Mitchell Television Programming Endowment 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. In the latter half of the 1960s, actor, producer and director Jack Webb reanimated his retired alter-ego Sergeant Joe Friday to safeguard a City of Los Angeles facing previously unknown dangers wrought by the rapid social change of the flower child era. Premiering on NBC on January 12, 1967, Webb’s Technicolor revival of Dragnet engaged complex issues far removed from the stock burglaries and fedora-wearing felons of the previous incarnations of his popular radio and black-and-white TV series. The build-up to the Summer of Love found Webb repositioning Sgt. Friday as both a law enforcement officer and amateur sociologist — charged with defending the establishment and decoding the youth movement for culture-shocked squares caught in an ever-expanding generation gap. Viewed today, these simultaneously propagandistic and earnest dramas made by future Television Academy Hall of Fame inductee Jack Webb play as highly entertaining, funhouse-mirror time capsules of Los Angeles in the 1960s. Inspired by actual police files, the fact-laced tales also employ a strong dose of grit in the hardboiled traditions of noir. Join us for a trio of psychedelic freak-out Technicolor Dragnet cases — with surprise, mood-setting, time-and-space-bending musical interludes screened between episodes. —John H. Mitchell Television Curator Mark Quigley Dragnet 1967: “The Big LSD” U.S., 1/12/1967 Sgt. Joe Friday and Officer Bill Gannon (Harry Morgan) are horrified to encounter a psychotic youth (Michael Burns) with a bizarrely painted face. Upon investigation, his alarming behavior is revealed to be caused by LSD, a potent new hallucinogenic drug increasingly popular among the teens that gather on the Sunset Strip. As counterculture youths extol the enlightening benefits of LSD, Friday’s gut-wrenching fears about the drug are illuminated in true noir fashion. DCP, b&w, 25 min. NBC. Mark VII Productions in association with Universal Television. Producer: Jack Webb. Director: Jack Webb. Writer: John Randolph. With: Jack Webb, Harry Morgan, Michael Burns. Use of Dragnet 1967 courtesy of NBCUniversal; special thanks to Mark Halperin. Dragnet 1968: “The Big Prophet” U.S., 1/11/1968 Officers Friday (Jack Webb) and Gannon (Harry Morgan) confront Brother William (Liam Sullivan), a self-described guru (seemingly modeled on Timothy Leary) suspected of selling LSD to minors. In a claustrophobic, psychedelic shrine of bead curtains, multi-colored lights and far-out posters, the officers engage the cultish leader in a bitter debate over the virtues and existential perils of mind-altering substances. DCP, b&w, 25 min. NBC. Mark VII Productions in association with Universal Television. Producer: Jack Webb. Director: Jack Webb. Writer: David H. Vowell. With: Jack Webb, Harry Morgan, Liam Sullivan. Use of Dragnet 1968 courtesy of NBCUniversal; special thanks to Mark Halperin. Dragnet 1968: “The Big High” U.S., 11/2/1967 In the most darkly memorable episode of the entire long-running Dragnet franchise, Officers Friday (Jack Webb) and Gannon (Harry Morgan) investigate a young couple (Brenda Scott, Tim Donnelly) suspected of experimenting with marijuana. Dismissing the officers’ concerns as out of touch, a fateful pot party shatters the couple’s world, shaking seasoned cops Gannon and Friday to their hardened cores. DCP, b&w, 25 min. NBC. Mark VII Productions in association with Universal Television. Producer: Jack Webb. Director: Jack Webb. Writer: David H. Vowell. With: Jack Webb, Brenda Scott, Tim Donnelly.

The box office opens one hour before the event. The Exorcist U.S., 1973 “For I have seen the devil by day and by night, and have seen him in you and in me.” —James Baldwin Baldwin’s critique of The Exorcist provides the inspiration for titling The Devil Finds Work; he argued the film disguises human violence as supernatural evil. A cultural touchstone that broke box office records and sparked controversy, The Exorcist endures not for its demons, but for its visceral performances and psychological intensity, which helped paved the way for considering horror genre filmmaking to be serious art.—Public Programmer Beandrea July DCP, color, 122 min. Director: William Friedkin. Screenwriter: William Peter Blatty. With: Ellen Burstyn, Linda Blair, Max von Sydow, Jason Miller.

Time Sat 8/16 • 7:30PM PDT

Part of: Robert Altman’s America: A Centennial Review Presented by the UCLA Film & Television Archive 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. 3 Women U.S., 1977 Robert Altman has said that the idea for 3 Women came to him in a dream with the heavy influence of Ingmar Bergman’s Persona also contributing to what is one of Altman’s most enigmatic works. Water, reflections, split frames and other devices add an atmosphere of European-style ambiguity to an exploration of female identity and solidarity while the film’s distinctly American setting keeps everything solidly grounded. Shelley Duvall, Sissy Spacek and Janice Rule each deliver astonishing performances as women in a California desert town whose lives intersect and lose their fixity under the pressure of patriarchy and consumerism. DCP, color, 124 min. Director: Robert Altman. Screenwriter: Robert Altman. With: Shelley Duvall, Sissy Spacek, Janice Rule. Come Back to the 5 & Dime Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean U.S., 1982 Robert Altman directed Ed Graczyk’s play on Broadway (with Cher making her theatrical stage debut) before he and Graczyk adapted it for the big screen. Ingenious art design transforms a Woolworth’s in a small Texas town near the site where Giant was shot into a vortex of memories and revelations when the members of a James Dean fan club gather there for a 20th anniversary reunion. Altman’s fluid choreography between past and present underscore the powerful draw of nostalgia for some and the liberation of escape for others. Among the stellar ensemble cast, Karen Black delivers a particularly complex turn as a trans woman returned to confront the trauma that drove her away. 35mm color, 109 min. Director: Robert Altman. Screenwriter: Ed Graczyk. With: Sandy Dennis, Cher, Karen Black. —Senior Public Programmer Paul Malcolm

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. Kindah Jamaica/U.S, 2016 Shot in Hudson, New York, and Accompong, Jamaica, Kindah traces ancestral threads across the African diaspora, weaving a meditation on kinship, autonomy and return. Centered on the Kindah Tree — a living symbol of community among Jamaica’s Maroons — Ephraim Asili explores how land, memory and resistance shape evolving definitions of home. Blurring borders between past and present, North and South, Kindah offers a lyrical reflection on displacement, rootedness and the spiritual geography of diasporic belonging. DCP, b&w and color, 12 min. Director: Ephraim Asili. The Inheritance U.S., 2020 After nearly a decade exploring the African diaspora, Ephraim Asili makes his feature debut with this vibrant ensemble film, set almost entirely in a West Philadelphia rowhome where young Black artists and activists form a collective. “‘The Inheritance’ feels like poetry visualized,” writes Lovia Gyarkye in The New York Times. Blending scripted drama with documentary reflection on the 1985 MOVE bombing, the film reimagines home as a political and spiritual inheritance. DCP, color, 100 min. Director/Screenwriter: Ephraim Asili. With: Nozipho McClean, Eric Lockley, Chris Jarell, Julian Rozzell Jr., Debbie Africa. —Public Programmer Beandrea July
