George Antheil's avant-garde signature piece, the Ballet Méchanique, created riots in Paris at the Theatre Champs Elysees in June of 1926, and the following April in New York's Carnegie Hall. Even though it was the focus of one of the most written about events in 20th century American music history, it was not to be heard again for 62 years, until American conductor and musicologist Maurice Peress searched out the original score and restaged the 1927 concert in the very same Carnegie Hall on July 12, 1989. This world premiere recording now makes it possible to hear the original which contained Antheil's most advanced ideas; a futurist, machine-age, ragtime inspired music, of a complexity beyond human playing capabilities and a conception beyond most music composed in 1925.

One of the fastest, funniest, and most quotable films ever made, His Girl Friday stars Rosalind Russell as reporter Hildy Johnson, a standout among cinema’s powerful women. Hildy is matched in force only by her conniving but charismatic editor and ex-husband, Walter Burns (played by the peerless Cary Grant), who dangles the chance for her to scoop her fellow news writers with the story of an impending execution in order to keep her from hopping the train that’s supposed to take her to Albany and a new life as a housewife. When adapting Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur’s smash hit play The Front Page, director Howard Hawks had the inspired idea of turning star reporter Hildy Johnson into a woman, and the result is an immortal mix of hard-boiled newsroom setting with ebullient remarriage comedy. Also presented here is a brand-new restoration of the 1931 film The Front Page, Lewis Milestone’s famous pre-Code adaptation of the same material.

Provincia argentina, anni Quaranta. Toto è un ragazzino alla ricerca di sé e in perenne conflitto con il padre: non ha molti amici, ha paura anche della sua ombra e passa le giornate a nascondersi dietro le sottane delle domestiche e a colorare figurine che ritraggono attrici e femme fatale come Rita Hayworth. Grande appassionato di cinema, per sfuggire alla monotonia del paesino in cui vive - dove la campagna si estende per chilometri e chilometri e sembra non avere mai fine -, si aggrappa allo scintillante immaginario hollywoodiano, e reinventa continuamente la realtà ispirandosi agli attori che vede sul grande schermo. La provincia non è pronta per persone come lui - gli ripete in continuazione la madre, perdonandogli bugie e stranezze sempre più assurde -, ma durante le due ore della proiezione può essere chiunque voglia e avere finalmente diritto al lieto fine che tanto desidera..

Rita Hayworth was the epitome of 1940s glamour. A legendary "Love Goddess", she was a huge box-office star, and her sultry beauty and sensational figure made her into one of Hollywood's greatest sex-symbols: a pin-up so incendiary that GIs pasted it on to the first atom bomb ever detonated.
