Known primarily for his decade-long collaboration with the great film director Alfred Hitchcock, Bernard Herrmann (1911-1975) had a long and distinguished Hollywood career dating back to his association with Orson Welles. His first film score, written for Welles’ masterpiece “Citizen Kane”, put “Benny” as he was affectionately called by his fellow composers on the fast track to fame. He proceeded to spend the next 15 years composing classic scores for films such as “The Magnificent Ambersons”, “The Ghost and Mrs. Muir”, “Portrait of Jennie”, and “The Day the Earth Stood Still”. But it was Herrmann’s compositions for such Hitchcock classics as “Vertigo”, “North by Northwest”, and “Psycho” that has truly endeared him to generations of filmgoers who appreciate the importance of music in getting audiences emotionally invested in the cinematic experience. We will have an opportunity during this program to revisit many of the mood-setting scores Herrmann created right through his final work on Martin Scorsese’s “Taxi Driver”. Additionally we will examine the circumstances leading to his creative differences with Hitchcock which terminated their professional relationship.

October Pick: Good Riddance by Elinor Lipman

The delightful new romantic comedy from Elinor Lipman, in which one woman's trash becomes another woman's treasure, with deliriously entertaining results. Daphne Maritch doesn't quite know what to make of the heavily annotated high school yearbook she inherits from her mother, who held this relic dear. Too dear. The late June Winter Maritch was the teacher to whom the class of '68 had dedicated its yearbook, and in turn she went on to attend every reunion, scribbling notes and observations after each one-not always charitably-and noting who overstepped boundaries of many kinds. In a fit of decluttering (the yearbook did not, Daphne concluded, "spark joy"), she discards it when she moves to a small New York City apartment. But when it's found in the recycling bin by a busybody neighbor/documentary filmmaker, the yearbook's mysteries-not to mention her own family's-take on a whole new urgency, and Daphne finds herself entangled in a series of events both poignant and absurd.

Chaim Soutine was introduced to Amedeo Modigliani in Paris in 1915.  Both foreigners from very different backgrounds, Modigliani from an urbane Sephardic Italian family and Soutine from dire poverty in the Lithuanian shtetl, the two struggling artists became close friends until Modigliani’s tragic early death.   This talk will offer an introduction to each painter, focusing on the 5 years of the special relationship between the elegant, cultured Modigliani and his awkward outsider protégé Soutine.

Since the beginning of motion pictures, making audiences laugh has been one of the film industry’s chief box office attractions. Skilled acrobatic comedians like Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, and Charlie Chaplin were enormously popular in the silent era, as were their more verbally dexterous talking picture successors the Marx Brothers and W.C. Fields. Comedy exploded once movies could talk, from screwball to romance to social satire to musicals, and in recent decades dozens of new variations have appeared from over-the-top dark comedy to gross-out teen comedy. This survey will look at the major highlights of screen comedy over the last 125 years, illustrated with more than 40 examples from Hollywood’s funniest films.

November Pick: Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life—until the unthinkable happens.

Where the Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder. Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we once were, and that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent secrets that nature keeps.

Between 1900 and 1907, an Irish immigrant cook named Mary infected dozens of New Yorkers with typhoid fever. Tracked down through detective work, she was finally taken into custody and quarantined on an island off Manhattan, where she died decades later. This fascinating lecture tells the remarkable story of the woman known as Typhoid Mary and why she is remembered as the first “healthy” carrier of a deadly virus. At a time when viruses pose serious questions about the threats and quandaries of epidemics, Typhoid Mary’s story couldn’t be more timely.

Pan American Unity is a mural painted by Mexican artist and muralist Diego Rivera for Art In Action exhibition at Treasure Island’s Golden Gate International (GGIE) in San Francisco, CA in 1940. Rivera’s work was the centerpiece of the Art In Action exhibit, which featured many artists engaged in creating works during the Exposition while the public watched.  The mural is composed of ten panels arranged in five sections, all of which relate Rivera's firmly held belief that multicultural artistic expression will form into a unified cultural entity regardless of individual points of origin. His belief in the eventual unity of the Americas inspired the images represented in this mural.  “I believe in order to make an American art, a real American art, this will be necessary, this blending of the art of the Indian, the Mexican, the Eskimo, with the kind of urge which makes the machine, theinvention in the material side of life, which is also an artistic urge, the same urge primarily but in adifferent form of expression.” — Diego Rivera

Rivera’s masterpiece is currently exhibited at the SFMoMA for the first time, where it is anticipated to be seen by more visitors than at any time in its 80 year history. Join Professor Thomas Germanowho will present this virtual, visual art lecture.

Days at the pool or the tennis court, nights in the casino or the comedy club. This was summer in the Catskills in the ‘40s, ‘50s and ‘60s, the glory days of the mountain playlands that warmly welcomed Yiddish-speaking immigrants and refugees along with their families. In hotels, bungalow colonies, tiny kuchalaynes and lavish resorts, the entertainment was A-list and the non-stop food was kosher. Join us for the story of the legendary Borscht Belt, the Yiddish vacationland that reshaped the Jewish American experience, helped Americanize Holocaust survivors and profoundly changed our definition of comedy.

Olmsted, working with Calvert Vaux, designed Central Park in response to a competition held in New York City in 1857. Vaux was responsible for the architectural features, while Olmsted transformed more than 800 acres of New York’s original terrain into the landscape we know today. Central Park quickly became a symbol of our national culture and its landscaping a model for thousands of municipal parks across the nation. We’ll discuss how the idea of the Park came about and consider the many innovative elements of its design that have endeared it to millions of visitors.
