George Eastman House presents the first major museum exhibition of photographs by Oscar®-winning actress Jessica Lange. The 33 black-and-white images featured depict film locations, family, and the places she has visited on her travels. But rather than a collection of starry shots, most of the photographs are studies of unknown people and far-away places, such as Ethiopia and Romania. After three decades in front of the camera, Lange is now realizing her dream of being on the other side of the lens. This exhibition is sponsored by Woods Oviatt Gilman LLP and First Niagara Financial Group.

Directed by Mathieu Kassovitz, this film, shown in black and white, “confronts the viewer with a France far removed from both the broad boulevards of the capital and the small rural towns of the provinces.” The story follows three young men and their time spend in the French suburban “ghetto” over a twenty-four hour period. Vinz, a Jew, Said, an Arab, and Hubert, a black boxer, have grown up in these areas where high levels of diversity are coupled with the racist and oppressive police force. As Vinz’s friend Abdel lays in a hospital after a beating from a police interrogation, the climax builds as Vinz vows to kill a cop if his friend dies. (Subtitled in English)
