Film and Media Collection Still Moving @ The MoMa



In late 2006 The Museum of Modern Art published Still Moving: The Film and Media Collections of The Museum of Modern Art, the first-ever survey of MoMA's world-renowned holdings in the art of the moving image. In conjunction with this book the Museum presents a regular series derived exclusively from its film collection, featuring works that have been acquired and preserved by MoMA over the last seven decades. August features four classic Italian films recently restored by and acquired from Mediaset S.p.A. In September, we mark the recent passing of producer, director, and actor Sydney Pollack with a screening of his early directorial success They Shoot Horses, Don't They?, along with Woody Allen's Husbands and Wives, in which Pollack portrays a man in the throes of a midlife crisis. In addition, we present Garson Kanin's comedy of marital confusion, My Favorite Wife, and a screening of Michael Snow's 1967 classic of Structuralist cinema, Wavelength.
