- It’s a busy month for John Canemaker.
Just a reminder that Marymount Manhattan College has on display some of the original hand-drawn, animation art from John Canemaker’s Academy Award-winning film The Moon and the Son: An Imagined Conversation. This exhibit opened on Monday, April 16 and will run through May 23 in the school’s Hewitt Gallery of Art. The gallery/school is located at 221 East 71st Street.
The official opening of this show will be on Thursday, April 19, followed by a reception in the Hewitt Gallery of Art at Marymount Manhattan College.
The screening will begin at 5:30 p.m. sharp at the Beekman Theatre, which is located at 1271 Second Avenue between 66th and 67th Streets.
John & producer, Peggy Stern
This event is free of charge for all attendees. However, seats are filling up fast. Please RSVP to Laura Davis, Manager of Alumni Relations via e-mail at ldavis@mmm.edu or phone at (212) 517-0416.
. For those outside of New York who still haven’t seen John’s film, you can catch it on ITunes. Just enter “THE MOON AND THE SON†in the search box at the upper right corner of the iTunes Store home page to preview the film.
. The film will also air on Cinemax on April 22nd at 6:30am EST.
. John also will have a program of his films at the Tribeca Film Festival.
- Another reminder:
Tekkon Kinkreet will screen at the Museum of Modern Art next week. This is the anime feature that I saw and wrote about last week. The graphics are quite impressive, and it’s a film that’s well worth supporting. There currently is no distributor.
