WHAT | Academy at Metrograph. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Presents A Special Screening of Woodstock -- The Director’s Cut
WHEN | Saturday, July 13th, 2019, 1:00 PM

ABOUT WOODSTOCK | A crack editing team of seven, including Thelma Schoonmaker and assistant Martin Scorsese, turned 120 miles of footage into a blissy rush of music and mayhem, capturing performances by Sly and the Family Stone, Joan Baez, Joe Cocker, Richie Havens and, of course, Jimi Hendrix, whose virtuosity is only equaled by that of Wadleigh and crew. Seen here in its definitive director’s cut!

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) began a yearlong residency at Metrograph in July 2017, bringing exciting and entertaining programs to the big screen. Programs in ACADEMY AT METROGRAPH have and continue to feature onstage conversations with filmmakers and scholars of motion pictures, tributes, newsreels, rarely seen clips from past Oscar® ceremonies, and home movies from Hollywood legends. This monthly series highlights unique archival elements, including recent restorations and film prints from the Academy Film Archive by celebrating classic moments from the Academy’s 90-year history.
