About The Event
Katherine Watson (Julia Roberts) is a recent UCLA graduate hired to teach art history at the prestigious all-female Wellesley College, in 1953. Determined to confront the outdated mores of society and the institution that embraces them, Katherine inspires her traditional students including Betty (Kirsten Dunst) and Joan (Julia Stiles) to challenge the lives they are expected to lead.
About The Organizer
Nitehawk offers diverse, thoughtful, and engaging programming through our brunch, midnite, and signature series that honor cinema’s past with ongoing repertory screenings and support the future of filmmaking with screenings of new independent films. We strive to reach a wide range of audiences, from the cinephile to the casual movie fan, to encourage explorations of new, lesser known films and re-experiencing familiar classics in new ways. Making movie-going special is why we present one-of-a-kind events with screenings featuring filmmakers in person, specialty menus, live performances, and lively discussions. Nitehawk is also committed to promote local, independent filmmakers by hosting regular screenings of feature films of all genres by diverse filmmakers, short films with New York partners, and presenting the annual Nitehawk Shorts Festival.
Please Note
As Aries season gives way to Taurus season, we show love to one of the most beloved Taurean actors in the business.
From the age of 12, she has been wowing us with her work in films like INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE and JUMANJI, and we follow her into her teen roles including her first collaboration with Sofia Coppola (THE VIRGIN SUICIDES) all the way through to what could have been her first Oscar nomination in MELANCHOLIA.
This one is dedicated to Kirsten Dunst. See the rest of the series at Prospect Park.
