SUMMARY:Festival Gems: The Little Rock Film Festival Revisited\, Vol. 1 presented by Made in Arkansas
DESCRIPTION:Join the Made in Arkansas Film Festival for a monthly night of screenings in the CALS Ron Robinson Theater! \nJoin us on August 8th for a special homage to the Little Rock Film Festival (LRFF)\, celebrating the vibrant Arkansas film scene. We’ll be screening a variety of films that made a significant impact on local filmmakers and audiences alike. \nThe LRFF was an award-winning showcase festival for Arkansas filmmakers\, providing a unique platform for creative voices from 2007 until its conclusion in 2015. Founded by brothers Brent and Craig Renaud along with Jamie Moses and Owen Brainard\, the festival fostered a sense of community and inclusion\, allowing filmmakers to connect with industry peers and audiences. With a filmmaker pass\, attendees gained access to influential figures whose films had graced prestigious festivals such as Tribeca\, South by Southwest\, and Sundance. The LRFF inspired a new generation of Arkansas filmmakers\, and its profound influence on Arkansas film continues to this day. \nFor just $5\, you can enjoy these impactful films and hear from the filmmakers themselves as they share their experiences and discuss the profound influence the festival had on their careers. Don’t miss this chance to relive the legacy of the Little Rock Film Festival and celebrate the enduring spirit of Arkansas cinema. \n7-8 \nThe Dealer’s Tale – 18:05 – Directed by Justin Nickels – 2015\nA modern retelling of Chaucer’s ‘Pardoner’s Tale.’ Two hitmen go on the search for Death and a mysterious boy helps them find him. \nRapture Us – 18:00 – Directed by Levi Agee – 2015\nRapture Us is about a devout Christian named Toby who believes all the world’s Christians but himself were taken up into heaven after the disappearance of his mother.

SUMMARY:"King Lear" Starring Ian McKellen presented by National Theatre Live
DESCRIPTION:Considered by many to be the greatest tragedy ever written\, King Lear sees two ageing fathers – one a King\, one his courtier – reject the children who truly love them. Their blindness unleashes a tornado of pitiless ambition and treachery\, as family and state are plunged into a violent power struggle with bitter ends. \n★★★★★ ‘Ian McKellen reigns supreme in this triumphant production.’ (Daily Telegraph) \nFrom London’s West End\, see Ian McKellen’s ‘extraordinarily moving portrayal’ (Independent) of King Lear. \nJonathan Munby directs this ‘nuanced and powerful’ (The Times) contemporary retelling of Shakespeare’ s tender\, violent\, moving and shocking play. \nImportant Information: \nFilm Start Time: Doors open at 2:00pm\, and the film will begin promptly at 3:00pm. As our films are general admission seating\, please be sure to arrive early to secure your seat. Beer\, wine\, and concessions will be available. \nFree Parking: \nWe’re pleased to offer complimentary parking for all attendees. Simply bring your parking ticket from the library parking lot (across from the Main Library on Rock Street) or the parking deck (next to the Main Library on Rock Street) inside the theater\, and our friendly box office staff will validate it for you. Validations are for paid ticket holders only. \nWe look forward to welcoming you to an evening of timeless storytelling at the CALS Ron Robinson Theater!
