These volumes reveal a dynamic dialogue between Dante’s poetry and the world.

It is curated by Salvatore Riolo, Notre Dame Italian Studies doctoral candidate, and co-curators Giulia Maria Gliozzi, Notre Dame Italian Studies doctoral candidate; Inha Park, Notre Dame Italian Studies doctoral candidate; and Peter Scharer, Yale Comparative Literature doctoral candidate.

New at the BrowningDirected by Jiao ZiWith Michelle Yeoh, Crystal Lee, Vincent Rodriguez IIIRated PG-13, 144 minutesWhen Xu Zhonglin wrote the novel Investiture of the Gods in the 1500s, he didn't expect one, let alone two, animated adaptations to sweep China (and then the world). In particular with Ne Zha 2, this direct sequel has become both the highest-grossing animated film and the highest-grossing non-English language film of all time by raking in over $2,000,000,000. While the results are staggering, the story's roots still hold well to the 16th-century source material: A rebellious young boy, Ne Zha, is feared by the gods and born to mortal parents with wild, uncontrolled powers. Now that he's faced with an ancient force intent on destroying humanity, he must grow up to become the hero the world needs. GET TICKETS

Join in for an evening of sketching, community, and inspiration centered around themes found in the exhibition Homecoming: Walter Osborne’s Portraits of Dublin, 1880–1900. This month’s session will focus on place and be led by local artist Kay Westhues. Come ready to share a sketch (sketches should be no larger than 9” x 12”) of your own, created in response to this prompt: Sound and Place DrawingsThink of a favorite place in your town, neighborhood, or region—somewhere meaningful or interesting. Head to that spot with your preferred drawing materials in hand.Once there, settle into a comfortable position. Close your eyes and tune in deeply to the sounds around you. Notice the relationships between different types of sound—natural and human-made, nearby and far off, present or remembered. Try moving to a few other locations within the space. What changes? What stays the same?Draw some of the sounds that you hear. You might focus on one sound and make marks that describe the sound, or draw several sounds together to create a visual representation of the layered soundscape. Try drawing with your eyes closed to connect even more closely with the sounds. Your drawings can be abstract or representational.This prompt was inspired by Pauline Oliveros, a composer who developed and utilized the practice of Deep Listening in her work. During the program, we’ll share sketches, discuss artistic choices and techniques, find inspiration in each other’s and Osborne’s work, and take on a new sketching challenge inspired by this month’s theme. Local Lines is open to artists aged 15 and up. This program is part of The Big Draw, the world's largest drawing celebration, which takes place across the globe every year in October. It is for anyone who loves to draw, as well as those who think they can't. The festival promotes drawing as a universal language that has the power to change lives and unite people of any age, background, race, or religion from around the globe.

With its unprecedented narrative twists and terrifying images, Diabolique is a heart-grabbing benchmark in horror filmmaking, featuring outstanding performances by Simone Signoret, Véra Clouzot, and Paul Meurisse.

Classics in the BrowningDirected by Steve LatshawWith Linnea Quigley, Maddisen Krown, Gary DolesRated R, 88 minutesJack-O is the Halloween mash-up between Troll 2, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, and Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning that you've been dreaming of. It's Halloween night in the small town of Oakmoor Crossing. And all is not well. Armed with a scythe and a literal pumpkin for a head, Mister Jack has risen from his tomb to seek revenge against a warlock's descendants and their babysitter. Why? It remains unclear.

The Met Opera Live in HD 195 minutes (one intermission) Encore Following triumphant Live in HD performances in Gounod's Roméo et Juliette, Verdi's La Traviata, and Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor, Nadine Sierra summits another peak of the soprano repertoire as Amina, who sleepwalks her way into audiences' hearts in Bellini's poignant tale of love lost and found. In his new production, Rolando Villazón—the tenor who has embarked on a brilliant second career as a director—retains the opera's original setting in the Swiss Alps but uses its somnambulant plot to explore the emotional and psychological valleys of the mind. Tenor Xabier Anduaga co-stars as Amina's fiancé, Elvino, alongside soprano Sydney Mancasola as her rival, Lisa, and bass Alexander Vinogradov as Count Rodolfo. Riccardo Frizza takes the podium for one of opera's most ravishing works. GET TICKETS *Sponsored by the Jill A. Fischer Endowment for Excellence in Live Opera Broadcasts.

Professor Pfinklepfunder's $1 Sunday Films Directed by Nicolas Roeg With Anjelica Huston, Mai Zetterling, Jasen FisherRated PG, 91 minutes A Roald Dahl adaptation from Nicolas Roeg is a bit of a fascinating combination given Roeg's past films (e.g., directing the David Bowie vehicle The Man Who Fell to Earth or Mick Jagger in Performance or that kid in Don't Look Now). While staying at a hotel in England with his grandmother, Helga (Mai Zetterling), young Luke (Jasen Fisher) kills time by snooping here and there. As luck would have it, Luke inadvertently stumbles upon a convention of witches. The Grand High Witch (Oscar-winner Anjelica Huston) reveals a plan to turn all children into mice through a magical formula. As bad luck would have it, the witches realize that Luke has overheard their ruinous plot and test the formula on him. Now, with the help of Helga and the hotel manager, Mr. Stringer (Rowan Atkinson), Luke the mouse must fight back against the witches and save kids worldwide from a murine fate.

Classics in the BrowningDirected by Robert AldrichWith Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Victor BuonoNot Rated, 134 minutes, Blu-rayRevitalized in part by the recent Feud series that centered on Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? has long been of interest to those studying cult, camp, and horror—to say nothing of its ardent fans through the decades. Nominated for five Academy Awards, the adaptation of Lukas Heller's 1960 novel sees Davis and Crawford as sibling rivals of the highest order: Jane (Davis) is a former child star who cares for her sister Blanche (Crawford), herself an aged starlet who is disabled, but the care Jane doles out in their old Hollywood mansion is certainly high on the tough and low on the love. GET TICKETS *Free for ND, SMC, HC, IUSB, and high school students.

Classics in the BrowningDirected by Fritz LangWith Rudolf Klein-Rogge, Otto Wernicke, Oscar Beregi Sr.Not Rated, 121 minutes, Blu-rayIn German with English subtitlesLocked away in an asylum for a decade and teetering between life and death, the criminal mastermind Doctor Mabuse (Rudolf Klein-Rogge) has scribbled his last will and testament: a manifesto establishing a future empire of crime. When the document's nefarious writings start leading to terrifying parallels in reality, it's up to Berlin's star detective, Inspector Lohmann (Otto Wernicke, reprising his role from M) to connect the most fragmented, maddening clues in a case unlike any other. A sequel to his enormously successful silent film Dr. Mabuse: The Gambler, Fritz Lang's The Testament of Dr. Mabuse reunites the director with the character that had effectively launched his career. Lang put slogans and ideas expounded by the Nazis into the mouth of a madman, warning his audience of an imminent menace, which was soon to become a reality. Nazi Minister of Information Joseph Goebbels saw the film as an instruction manual for terrorist action against the government and banned it for "endangering public order and security." A landmark of mystery and suspense for countless espionage and noir thrillers to come, this is the complete, uncut original director's version in a stunning new transfer. GET TICKETS *Free for ND, SMC, HC, IUSB, and high school students.
