SUMMARY:Ackland Film Forum: "Om Shanti Om" (2007)
DESCRIPTION:A murder-mystery and romance combine in this Indian cult film that caps off our Global Cult Cinema series. \nOm Shanti Om\nFarah Khan\, 2007\, India\, 2h 42m \nIntroduction by Priya Shanker\, UNC-Wilmington \nFILM SYNOPSIS \nIn the 1970s\, Om\, an aspiring actor\, is murdered\, but is immediately reincarnated into the present day. He attempts to discover the mystery of his demise and find Shanti\, the love of his previous life. \nTICKETS \nFree tickets are available at the Varsity Theatre\, 123 E. Franklin Street\, Chapel Hill \n— \nABOUT THE GLOBAL CULT CINEMA SERIES \nFrom Rocky Horror Picture Show to The Big Lebowski\, cult classics are movies that become objects of adulation for their most dedicated fans. While some cult classics are good movies by conventional standards\, others are famous precisely because the director was more interested in having a good time than winning awards. In this series\, we’ll show four global cult classics (or soon to-be classics)\, including Çetin İnanç’s 1982 science-fiction action film Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam (“The Man Who Saved the World”)\, which infamously “borrowed” special effects sequences from Star Wars and Lo Wei’s 1972 film The Big Boss\, which made Bruce Lee an international star. Tears of the Black Tiger pays homage to Thai action films and melodramas of the 1950s\, crossing that indelible line between reverence and parody. Om Shanti Om also pays tribute to a golden era of filmmaking\, only in this case it’s concerned with recreating the over-the-top dance numbers of 1970s Bollywood filmmaking. \nThe Spring 2022 Global Cult Cinema series\, co-organized by the Ackland Art Museum and the Film Studies Program in the Department of English and Comparative Literature\, is presented in connected with an installation in Ackland Upstairs\, the Museum’s second floor gallery featuring short term displays of works being used in conjunction with university classes. This semester\, visitors can find examples of posters from the Ackland’s collection on display for Research Methods in Film Studies: Histories of Moviegoing.

SUMMARY:Collectors' Seminar: Building an Art Collection
DESCRIPTION:This program has been rescheduled from January 28th. Please join us on March 24th!\n \n— \nWith Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass\, Moderated by Peter Nisbet \nJoin us for an intimate conversation with Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass about their lifelong passion for collecting art\, the latest in a series of talks with collectors whose works have been on view at the Ackland. The Dintenfasses have collected art for an astonishing fifty-three years\, beginning with John’s medical residency in West Africa and continuing for several decades as the French and American couple traveled throughout the U.S. and Europe. Their varied collection is comprised of African metalwork — some of which can now be seen at the Ackland in our exhibition Peace\, Power & Prestige: Metal Arts in Africa — but also extends to wooden miniatures\, Chinese art\, and American paintings and coins. The Dintenfasses\, together in conversation with Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs Peter Nisbet\, will discuss selected works from their African collection currently on view at the Museum\, talk about how they have built and refined their collection\, and share their thoughts on the psychology of collecting art\, the subject of a book they are currently writing. \nSpace is extremely limited at this in-person program and registration is required. Please reserve your free tickets below. \nIf you find yourself unable to attend\, please email acklandrsvp@unc.edu\, so that we may offer the space to others. \nThe Ackland Art Museum is operating under the guidelines of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. As of March 7\, 2022\, masks are optional in our galleries.
