SUMMARY:Opening day for "Your “Boy\,” Jack: Fluid Impressions of Lilian Miller"
DESCRIPTION:April 2\, 2026 – July 26\, 2026\nBorn in Tokyo in 1895 to American parents\, Lilian “Jack” Miller moved fluidly across nations\, cultures\, and identities. Trained in traditional Japanese artmaking techniques\, she became one of the few American artists working in Japan to fully take up the modern woodblock printmaking for which she is best known. \nMiller\, known to family and friends as “Jack\,” defied social convention with her androgynous style\, independent spirit\, and deeply personal work. Her prints\, often portraying a variety of Japanese and Korean subjects\, reflect the life of a queer artist who transcended aesthetic and societal boundaries\, bringing us new perspectives and blended traditions. Featuring nine prints from the Speed’s collection\, this exhibition reintroduces Miller as a modern visionary whose art has reshaped inherited traditions and whose life and work continue to engage questions of gender\, geography\, and artistic practice. \n2026 Season Exhibition Sponsors \n\n\n\nCary Brown and Steven E. Epstein\n\n\nSusan Dabney Lavin and Allan Lavin\n\n\nTodd P. Lowe and Fran C. Ratterman\n\n\nDebra and Ronald Murphy\n\n\nDr. Victoria Phillips and Travis Anderson\n\n\nSociable Weaver Foundation

SUMMARY:Dont Look Back at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Dont Look Back\nDirected by D. A. Pennebaker \nThursday\, April 2\, 6 pm | BUY TICKETS \n$12 | $8 Speed and LPM members \n“Both a great concert movie and an amazing documentary of the mid-60s cutting edge pop culture.”—Michael Wilmington\, Chicago Tribune \nBob Dylan is captured on-screen as he never would be again in this groundbreaking film from D. A. Pennebaker. The legendary documentarian finds Dylan in England during his 1965 tour\, which would be his last as an acoustic artist. In this wildly entertaining vision of one of the twentieth century’s greatest artists\, Dylan is surrounded by teen fans\, gets into heated philosophical jousts with journalists\, and kicks back with fellow musicians Joan Baez\, Donovan\, and Alan Price. \nFeaturing some of Dylan’s most famous songs\, including “Subterranean Homesick Blues\,” “The Times They Are A-Changin’\,” and “It’s All Over Now\, Baby Blue\,” Dont Look Back is a radically conceived portrait of an American icon that has influenced decades of vérité behind-the-scenes documentaries. 1967\, U.S.\, DCP\, 96 minutes. Recommended for 15+ \nCo-presented with WFPK. Bob Dylan will appear in concert Monday\, April 6 at the Louisville Palace.

SUMMARY:Days and Nights in the Forest sat Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Days and Nights in the Forest\nDirected by Satyajit Ray \nSaturday\, April 3\, 6 pm | BUY TICKETS \n$12 | $8 Speed members \n“Packed with cultural references and sly satire\, this is also a hugely entertaining comic romp.”—David Parkinson\, Empire Magazine \nAdapted from Sunil Gangopadhyay’s celebrated 1968 novel\, Days and Nights in the Forest is one of director Satyajit Ray’s greatest achievements\, a modern search for connection that conjures the timeless resonance of a folktale. \nDesperate to flee Calcutta’s rat race\, four friends—Ashim (Soumitra Chatterjee)\, Sanjoy (Subhendu Chatterjee)\, Hari (Samit Bhanja)\, and Shekhar (Rabi Ghosh)—drive to Palamu\, one of India’s rural “tribal lands\,” where they bribe a watchman into letting them stay at a sylvan guesthouse. Despite vowing to get away from it all\, the crew soon mixes with the locals\, including a woodland family: the soulful yet mischievous Aparna (Sharmila Tagore) takes to the overconfident Ashim\, while her widowed sister-in-law Jaya (Kaberi Bose) grows closer to the bookish Sanjoy. At the same time\, Hari\, fresh off a break-up\, woos a Santal girl named Duli (Simi Garewal); and Shekhar\, despite his own penchant for gambling\, tries to rein in his companions’ boozy hedonism. \nFilled with some of Ray’s most indelible characterizations and lavish images (shot by longtime cinematographer Soumendu Roy)\, Days and Nights in the Forest touches on masculine vulnerabilities and Indian class divisions with the graceful complexity of a master at his peak. 1970\, India\, 4K DCP\, in Bengali with English subtitles\, 116 minutes. Recommended for 14+. \nThese screenings will include a theatres-only pre-recorded introduction from director Wes Anderson. \nRestored in 4K in 2025 by The Film Foundation’s World Cinema Project and Film Heritage Foundation in collaboration with Janus Films – The Criterion Collection at L’Immagine Ritrovata laboratory\, from the original camera and sound negatives provided by Purnima Dutta and the magnetic track preserved by BFI National Archive. Funding provided by the Golden Globe Foundation. Special thanks to Wes Anderson and Sandip Ray.

SUMMARY:Serpent’s Path (1998) and Chime (2024) at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Serpent’s Path (1998) and Chime (2024)\nDirected by Kiyoshi Kurosawa \nFriday\, April 3\, 6 pm | BUY TICKETS \n$12 | $8 Speed members \nA masterclass in escalating dread and shocking violence\, Chime reaffirms Kiyoshi Kurosawa as one of modern horror’s most innovative and unpredictable visionaries. During a class\, culinary instructor Matsuoka (Mutsuo Yoshioka) witnesses the suicide of a young student (Seiichi Kohinata)\, driven to insanity by what he claims is a chiming sound that controls his mind. Soon\, Matsuoka begins hearing it\, too\, and descends into a mental abyss that warps his perception of reality and gives vent to his darkest impulses. Expertly blending psychological portraiture and hallucinatory mystery\, Kurosawa offers a chilling depiction of madness that interrogates the very stability of our everyday existence\, with the director’s patented creeping tracking shots and complex sound design fashioning an immersively terrifying and unnerving cinematic experience. 2024\, Japan\, DCP\, in Japanese with English subtitles\, 45 minutes. \nStraight off Cure (1997)\, his international breakthrough\, Kiyoshi Kurosawa directed two low-budget films using the same basic premise and the same lead actor (Sho Aikawa) to completely different ends. The experiment first resulted in Serpent’s Path (1998\, later remade in 2024)\, a dark gangland thriller with philosophical overtones. Obsessed with avenging his young daughter’s murder\, yakuza subordinate Miyashita (Teruyuki Kagawa) recruits Nijima (Aikawa)\, a brilliant yet strangely detached math teacher\, to help carry out a scheme to kidnap and torture the man allegedly responsible. But the plan goes awry when their target\, Otsuki (Yurei Yanagi)\, fingers another mobster as the mastermind behind Miyashita’s tragedy. As the two partners ascend the yakuza chain of command in search of the true culprit\, Miyashita and Nijima follow the cold\, calculating logic of revenge\, descending into a moral abyss from which they may never surface. Featuring Kurosawa’s patented long takes and his claustrophobic arrangement of space\, Serpent’s Path is one of the legendary director’s most chilling investigations into the endless cycle of violence and the evil that lodges in every heart. 1998\, Japan\, DCP\, in Japanese with English subtitles\, 85 minutes. Recommended for 17+.  Total running time: 130 minutes.
