Film Screening: Chance at Heaven (RKO, 1933)
MoreHow did Hollywood cinema reflect, deflect, influence, inspire, and steal from modernism’s new aesthetics? Chance at Heaven (RKO, 1933) provides a way of thinking through that question. Directed by William Seiter with art direction by Van Nest Polglase and Perry Ferguson; starring Joel McCrea, Ginger Rogers, and Marian Nixon; with commentary by Drake Stutesman, Adjunct Professor of Cinema Studies (TSOA) and Costume Studies (Steinhardt), NYU. Film screening co-sponsored by NYU Cinema Studies and the Grey Art Gallery as part of the exhibition Partners in Design: Alfred H. Barr Jr. and Philip Johnson.
