REDCAT ROY AND EDNA DISNEY/CALARTS THEATER

Dimitri Chamblas delves into the life stories of two remarkable dancers in&nbsp;Ulysse Marion.&nbsp;Through long conversations with Marion Barbeau and Ulysse Zangs, Chamblas resurfaced childhood memories of their training with the Paris Opera Ballet and how their rigorous commitment to movement from a young age indelibly shaped their lives and transformed them into unique, interdisciplinary artists. Each performs a solo, revealing how their foundation in dance has intertwined with other practices—music for Ulysse, acting for Marion—to hone their bodies as finely tuned instruments with exceptional physical skill and emotional sensitivity. In this intimate piece, Chamblas uses choreography to rediscover buried memories as Barbeau and Zangs reveal the breadth of their feelings. Inspired by an experience in the California desert that reminded him that seemingly empty spaces are often inhabited by invisible presences, Chamblas transforms REDCAT into a vast, empty space to present&nbsp;Ulysse Marion as a portrait of artists laid&nbsp;bare.

Ulysse Marion was coproduced by la Villette, Paris&nbsp; - Initiatives d’Artistes, California Institute of the Arts, Agora, Cité Internationale de la Danse Montpellier Danse + CCN Occitanie, Théâtre de Nîmes, scène conventionnée d’intérêt national – art &amp; création -danse contemporaine et de la Ville de Nîmes, Théâtre Molière - Sète, scène nationale archipel de Thau, Ménagerie de Verre as part of Studio&nbsp;Lab.&nbsp;
With the support of Villa Albertine, the French Institute of Culture and&nbsp;Education.

Academy Museum of Motion Pictures

One of Monroe’s most successful roles was as The Girl in director Billy Wilder’s The Seven Year Itch, a comedy about a restless husband left to his own devices for the summer. To market the film, photographer Sam Shaw proposed the indelible subway grate moment, which dozens of publicity photographers attended on location in New York City. Due to sound issues, the real scene was shot on the 20th Century-Fox lot in Los Angeles. Outside of this iconic scene, the exhibition Marilyn Monroe: Hollywood Icon also features silk pajamas worn during a pivotal moment in developing Monroe’s girl-next-door character.

The Earl

The Reaper Film Festival is taking over The Earl in Los Angeles for one night of horror films, drinks, filmmakers, industry guests, awards, networking, and a full-blown afterparty.
Presented by Bloodstream TV, Reaper is not a traditional film festival where you sit quietly in a theater and politely clap. This is a horror event built to feel like a night out in Los Angeles.
The festival takes over three rooms and a patio at The Earl, with a dedicated screening space, areas to drink and connect, a red carpet with professional photographers, filmmaker Q&amp;As, awards, and an afterparty that runs until 2:00 AM.
The audience is part of the experience. Laugh. Scream. React. Talk about the films between screenings. Meet the filmmakers, producers, executives, actors, horror fans, and other creatives in the room.
Three 45-minute blocks of horror and genre short films will screen throughout the night, separated by 30-minute intermissions designed for drinks, conversation, and networking.
THE NIGHT:
6:00 PM Doors Open
6:30 PM Red Carpet Professional photographers capture filmmakers, guests, costumes, and the faces of Reaper 2026.
7:50 PM The Reaper's Toast Every attendee receives a complimentary shot as the entire festival raises a glass to the filmmakers and the night ahead.
8:00 PM Showtime Horror takes the screen with short-film blocks, filmmaker Q&amp;As, awards, and networking between screenings.
11:00 PM The After Party The screenings end, but the night keeps going with music, drinks, filmmakers, industry guests, and the Reaper crowd until 2:00 AM.
Reaper was created by working filmmakers to give independent horror filmmakers more than another laurel. Every Official Selection receives a live Los Angeles screening and non-exclusive worldwide distribution on Bloodstream TV.
The Grand Prize filmmaker also receives the opportunity to pitch a feature project directly to Bloodstream TV and Studio Dome for potential financing and development consideration.
Come for the horror. Stay for the party. Leave knowing someone you did not know when you walked in.

<h5>Captain Voyeur</h5>
A restless computer technician grows obsessed with a female coworker and secretly spies on her, treating his voyeurism like the duties of a masked superhero/villain. This short, made while John Carpenter was a film student at the University of Southern California, is rife with plot and filmmaking techniques he would later incorporate and improve upon in his slasher masterpiece Halloween (1978).

<h5>Dark Star</h5>
Intergalactic spacecraft Dark Star is on a mission to make the universe safer for humans by destroying planets deemed unsuitable. Can the crew of stoner astronauts complete their duties while dealing with a routinely malfunctioning ship, alien invaders and existential dread? What began as a 16mm short made with collaborator Dan O’Bannon (future screenwriter of Alien, 1979) while film students at the University of Southern California, was later expanded to feature length for theatrical distribution. Directed, co-written, produced and scored by John Carpenter in his feature film debut, Dark Star was not a big success on its initial limited release, but was later re-released after the successes of Halloween (1978) and Alien and developed a... cult following through home video versions.

In person: Caleb Deschanel, George Stevens, Jr.
George Stevens (A Place in the Sun, 1951) earned his second Directing Oscar for this character-centered adaptation of Edna Ferber’s 1952 bestseller about wealthy Texan Jordan “Bick” Benedict Jr. (Rock Hudson); his blueblood bride, Leslie (Elizabeth Taylor); and ambitious ranch hand Jett (James Dean, in his final performance). Visionary for its depictions of progressive social justice themes and Taylor’s bold depiction of a staunch feminist, Giant is an epic story that spans generations and tackles the conflicting mores that governed behavior in America during the first half of the 20th century. Alongside Stevens’s win for Directing, the film received 10 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, Supporting Actress (Mercedes McCambridge), two Best Actor nominations for James Dean and Rock Hudson,... as well as for Dimitri Tiomkin’s original score, in what was the composer’s only collaboration with Stevens.
Initiated in 1982, the George Stevens Lecture on Directing was the first of the Academy’s ongoing lectures dedicated to the art of filmmaking. For this edition, six-time Academy Award-nominated cinematographer Caleb Deschanel joins us to discuss Giant’s visual language and social impact before the screening, which is presented in a beautiful, 4K restoration.
