1 8 I D G A M O N T H L Y DOCUMENTARY SERIES CLASSIC FILM SERIES Rear Window Directed by Alfred Hitchcock The Special Projects Committee invites you to join them for a special 35mm print screening of Sir Alfred Hitchcock's 1954 classic, Rear Window. A photographer in a wheelchair spies on his neighbors from his Greenwich Village courtyard apartment window, and becomes convinced one of them has committed murder, despite the skepticism of his fashion-model girlfriend. Considered by many fi lmgoers, critics, and scholars to be one of the greatest fi lms ever made, Rear Window received four Academy Award nominations as well as a DGA Award nomination for Hitchcock. In 1997, it was added to the Library of Congress' National Film Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically signifi cant." Starring: James Stewart, Grace Kelly, Wendell Corey, Thelma Ritter and Raymond Burr Running Time: 111 minutes - Print Courtesy of The Academy Film Archive This screening will be followed by a discussion with a panel of Directors who have been infl uenced by Hitchcock's work.

Deaf President Now! Directed by Nyle DiMarco & Davis Guggenheim Gallaudet University, the world's only four-year liberal arts school serving deaf and hard- of-hearing students, is a cherished institution for the community. But by 1988, the school founded by Abraham Lincoln in 1864, had never been led by a Deaf person. When the Gallaudet board of trustees announced their decision to appoint a hearing president over several very qualifi ed Deaf candidates, the students rallied together in a powerful demand for representation, equity, and self-determination marking a pivotal moment for Deaf rights. In their examination of "the greatest civil rights movement most people have never heard of," Nyle DiMarco & Davis Guggenheim's Deaf President Now! recounts the eight tumultuous days in 1988 where four students must fi nd a way to lead an angry mob to change the course of history. Deaf President Now! won the Audience Award at the 2025 SXSW Festival. Running Time: 100 minutes - Print Courtesy of Apple TV+ The screening will be followed by a discussion with Directors Nyle DiMarco & Davis Guggenheim.
