FILM HERITAGE AWARDS:

“Private Lives, Public Spaces” at the Museum of Modern Art: Curated by Ron Magliozzi, this exhibit makes visible MOMA’s collection of over one hundred years of vernacular moving images, most of them home movies by the famous and the unknown. Shown on multiple screens in the lobbies of MoMA’s Titus theaters, they form a crazy quilt of personal and cultural history.

Rialto Pictures: We honor Rialto Pictures, in its 22nd year, both for distributing 4K restorations of beloved classics like Kind Hearts and Coronets and for presenting neglected work by international masters, such as Federico Fellini’s The White Sheik, and, for the first time, the uncut version of Francesco Rosi’s Christ Stopped at Eboli, with restored prints and upgraded subtitles.
