Event Details
In person: Academy Governor Andrew Roberts
The third film in the contemporary version of the Planet of the Apes series finds the ape leader Caesar (another remarkable motion capture performance by Andy Serkis) seeking a safe haven for the survivors of a human-led massacre, only to wind up in a labor camp run by a vicious military officer (Woody Harrelson). The film was nominated for the visual effects by Joe Letteri, Daniel Barrett, Dan Lemmon and Joel Whist, who depict the film’s ape characters and wintry, post-apocalyptic setting with astonishing realism.
Academy Museum film programming generously funded by the Richard Roth Foundation.
