- Oct 119:30 PMFilm: "I Saw the TV Glow" (2024)Understanding the potential blowback a broad claim like this one could have, it still is worth making: I Saw the TV Glow should be required viewing for any Buffy fan. While not about Buffy, exactly, this film understands and portrays deftly late-90s fandom of CW, UPN, syndicated, and various other antenna television shows that still managed to feel like a back alley. Here, teenager Owen is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show (The Pink Opaque), which is a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen's view of reality begins to crack. GET TICKETS!

- Oct 131:00 PMFilm: “Scooby-Doo” (2002)When Gen X nostalgia reinvigorated 1970s pop culture during the 1990s, the TV cartoon Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! was undoubtedly a belle of that ball. That nostalgia infused with corporate interests to ensure a Mystery Machine shirt could be purchased at Gadzooks nationwide. It also set the slow-growing seeds of a live-action film that arrived in that nostalgia's faded light with keen self-awareness to both lean into and redefine its characters and tropes, not unlike the A Pup Named Scooby-Doo 1980s reboot. In this film version, Scooby-Doo and his mystery-solving buddies Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Velma (Linda Cardellini), and Shaggy (Matthew Lillard) have disbanded after shuttering Mystery, Inc. When each one is invited to the ominously named Spooky Island to investigate hauntings at the popular Spring Break locale, the crew ascertains whether the threats are paranormal or more earthly.

- Oct 133:30 PMFilm: "Pacifiction" (2022)As A.O. Scott wrote in The New York Times, Pacifiction mixes "John le Carré by way of David Lynch — a feverish and haunting but also wry and meditative rumination on power, secrecy and the color of clouds over water at sunset." On the French Polynesian island of Tahiti, the High Commissioner of the Republic and French government official De Roller (Benoît Magimel) is a calculating man with flawless manners. His somewhat broad perception of his role brings him to navigate the high end 'establishment' as well as shady venues where he mingles with the locals. Especially since a persistent rumor has been going around: the sighting of a submarine whose ghostly presence could herald the return of French nuclear testing. GET TICKETS!
- Oct 133:30 PMPerformance: “Kif-Kif? Transmission” with Post-Show Q&A: The Art and Scholarship of Academic StorytellingAs an extension of Kif-Kif Bledi's engagement on campus, the Nanovic Institute and faculty fellow Madison Mainwaring, assistant professor of French and Francophone studies, have partnered to organize both a pre-show introduction and post-show Q&A for its Kif-Kif? Transmission performance on October 13, 2024, which begins at 3:30 p.m. Founded in 2017, Kif-Kif Bledi aims to bridge the gap between social and academic spaces by preserving and sharing the richness of North African traditional dances. This initiative addresses the underrepresentation and misunderstanding of this cultural heritage in France. Faced with the decline of natural transmission at social events and family gatherings, Kif-Kif Bledi explores new methods while respecting ancestors. Its work positions traditional cultures in an increasingly individualistic and digital world. The "Kif-Kif? Transmission" performance explores this dynamic. This event, which the Nanovic Institute is placing within its The Art and Scholarship of Academic Storytelling series, is co-sponsored by the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures, the Institute for Scholarship in the Liberal Arts, and the Transnational France Research Cluster. Get Tickets You may also mention "Nanovic" when calling or visiting the box office to receive a complimentary ticket to the performance, compliments of the institute.About the SeriesThe Art and Scholarship of Academic Storytelling series explores the connections between “The Arts” (music, theater, dance, poetry/creative writing, filmmaking, drawing, painting, photography, and sculpting) and “Scholarship” on the topic of storytelling. Story and narrative are critical in the transmission of human ideas and culture. Thus, the institute and its partners across campus seek to understand how these methods of transmitting ideas may be practiced within an academic context. To do so, it seeks out the expertise of practitioners of the arts who do this type of storytelling in their work. Students, faculty, staff, and the general public are all invited to join these events, which are sometimes scheduled in tandem with performances on campus or in the local community, to consider this fascinating topic that cuts across disciplinary lines and appeals to academic and general audiences alike.
