- Oct 267:30 PMFilm: "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror" (1922)A cornerstone of the horror film, F.W. Murnau's Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror is resurrected in an HD edition mastered from the acclaimed 35mm restoration by the Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-Stiftung. This edition offers unprecedented visual clarity and historical faithfulness to the original release version. An unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, Nosferatu remains to many viewers the most unsettling vampire film ever made, and its bald, spidery vampire, personified by the diabolical Max Schreck, continues to spawn imitations in the realm of contemporary cinema.

- Oct 271:00 PMFilm: "Hocus Pocus" (1993)After moving to Salem, Massachusetts (not the best town to land in right before Halloween), teenager Max explores an abandoned house with his sister Dani (future star of American Beauty, Thora Birch) and their new friend, Allison. When Allison tells them a bit of local lore, the siblings dismiss the story as boring old superstition. As is sometimes the case, there's truth behind the legend, and Max accidentally frees a coven of witches (Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy). Now, with the help of a magical cat (bearing a strong resemblance to Salem Saberhagen), the kids must steal the witches' book of spells to stop them from becoming immortal. GET TICKETS!

Professor Amanda Kennell will moderate.Godzilla is a perfect metaphor for what is happening now in the Anthropocene: humankind has wounded nature so seriously that nature has no choice but to fight back. Jeffrey Angles, Interview with Toho KingdomYuki Miyamoto, Professor of Religious Studies and Global Asian Studies, DePaul University Jeffrey Angles, Professor of Japanese, Western Michigan University Brooke McCorkle Okazaki, Assistant Professor of Music, Carleton College Jessica McManus Warnell, the Rex and Alice A. Martin Faculty Director of the Notre Dame Deloitte Center for Ethical Leadership, University of Notre Dame Moderated by Amanda Kennell, Assistant Professor of Japanese, East Asian Languages and Cultures, University of Notre Dame Godzilla Fest is a celebration of the 70th anniversary of the 1954 release of the film "Godzilla" by Toho Studios in Tokyo. The giant monster, who attacked Japan after being awakened by hydrogen bomb testing, went on to become a global icon. Godzilla has starred in 38 films and has appeared in comic books, games, novelizations, advertisements, toys, and more. The king of the monsters has also been interpreted widely as a symbol for the destructive nature of humankind—from nuclear war to climate change. Godzilla Fest is organized by the Liu Institute for Asia and Asian Studies at the University of Notre Dame, the St. Joseph County Public Library, and the Browning Cinema at Notre Dame's DeBartolo Performing Arts Center. More information is available at asia.nd.edu/godzilla. In support of the Liu Institute’s growing commitment to sustainability, we will no longer be offering drinks at our public lectures and panels.

- Nov 16:30 PMPre-Show Lecture and Reception for "Twelfth Night" by Actors From The London Stage: "The Art and Scholarship of Academic Storytelling"The Nanovic Institute is thrilled to join Actors From The London Stage, the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center, and Shakespeare at Notre Dame in hosting this special presentation in The Art and Scholarship of Academic Storytelling series. Before the performance of Twelfth Night on November 1, Jenny Thorup Birkett, postdoctoral research associate in the Department of English, will lead a pre-show discussion with Scott Jackson, the Mary Irene Ryan Family Executive Artistic Director of Shakespeare at Notre Dame. All are welcome to join this vibrant discussion to "set the stage" for an amazing performance by Actors From The London Stage, but please ensure you have purchased your tickets. Buy Tickets Now Light refreshments will be offered in the lobby between the conclusion of the lecture and the start of the performance to allow conversations to continue. Then, after the curtain falls, the institute will host a special post-show Q&A with both the actors and the executive director. 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.

- Nov 57:30 PMFilm: "Tommy Guns" (2023)Angolan-Portuguese director Carlos Conceição's audacious and enigmatic Tommy Guns invokes the ghosts of Angola's colonial past while embracing the symbolic power of genre filmmaking. The story begins in 1974, just one year before the country's independence from decades of Portuguese rule. Wealthy colonists are fleeing the country as Angolan revolutionaries gradually claim their land back. A tribal girl discovers love and danger when her path crosses that of a Portuguese soldier. Another group of soldiers, completely cut off from the outside world, blindly follow the brutal orders of their commander in the name of serving their country. But nothing stays fixed in this genre-shifting cinematic puzzle, which playfully swerves from art house drama to war film to zombie flick to escape thriller with exhilarating control. GET TICKETS!
