Film series

In August 2006, Universal Pictures generously donated twelve 35mm prints of films from their studio catalog to the Department of Film. This diverse group of contemporary films illustrates the current range of high-quality commercial filmmaking. Many of these selections have received Academy Award nominations and some have won the coveted Oscar in several key categories. This exhibition presents eleven of the twelve donated films. Babe (1995), part of the acquisition, was shown last month in MoMA’s Movies for the Holidays exhibition.

Organized by Anne Morra, Assistant Curator, Department of Film.
