SUMMARY:PMA Films Presents: "Time"
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free outdoor screening of Garrett Bradley’s Oscar-nominated documentary Time\, presented in Congress Square Park Wednesday\, September 15 at 7 p.m. An introduction and reflections on the film presented by Maine Prisoner Advocacy Coalition begins at 6:30 p.m. \nFox Rich is a fighter. The entrepreneur\, abolitionist and mother of six boys has spent the last two decades campaigning for the release of her husband\, Rob G. Rich\, who is serving a 60-year sentence for a robbery they both committed in the early 90s in a moment of desperation. Combining the video diaries Fox has recorded for Rob over the years with intimate glimpses of her present-day life\, director Garrett Bradley paints a mesmerizing portrait of the resilience and radical love necessary to prevail over the endless separations of the country’s prison-industrial complex.

SUMMARY:National Silent Movie Day: City Lights
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating National Silent Movie Day\, a free 16mm screening of Charlie Chaplin’s CITY LIGHTS\, presented in Congress Square Park with Portland Museum of Art\, projecting a 16mm print of the film. Wednesday\, September 29th at 6:30pm.\n\nCharles Chaplin was deep into production of his silent CITY LIGHTS when Hollywood was overwhelmed by the talkie revolution. After months of anguished contemplation\, Chaplin decided to finish the film as it began–in silence\, save for a musical score and an occasional sound effect. Once again cast as the Little Tramp\, Chaplin makes the acquaintance of a blind flower girl\, who through a series of coincidences has gotten the impression that the shabby tramp is a millionaire. A second storyline begins when the tramp rescues a genuine millionaire from committing suicide. When drunk\, the millionaire expansively treats the tramp as a friend and equal; when sober\, he doesn’t even recognize him. The two plots come together when the tramp attempts to raise enough money for the blind girl to have an eye operation. Highlights include an extended boxing sequence pitting scrawny Chaplin against muscle-bound Hank Mann\, and the poignant final scene in which the now-sighted flower girl sees her impoverished benefactor for the first time. Chaplin’s decision to release the silent CITY LIGHTS three years into the talkie era was partially vindicated when more than one critic singled out this “comedy in pantomime” as the best picture of 1931.
