a/perture cinema presents the return of repertory film series – Sight and Sound

 a/perture cinema has announced programming for the return of its repertory film series “Sight & Sound.” Sight & Sound is a regular monthly series that presents films from the 100 Greatest Films of All Time list as surveyed in late 2022.  In 1952, the Sight and Sound team had the novel idea of asking critics to name the greatest films of all time. The tradition became decennial, increasing in size and prestige as the decades passed. The Sight and Sound poll is a major bellwether of critical opinion on cinema and the 2022 edition (the eighth) was the largest ever, with 1,639 participating critics, programmers, curators, archivists, and  academics each submitting their top ten ballot.  Sight & Sound is a part of a/perture’s Revivals programming, a sponsored project of the Arts Council of Winston-Salem & Forsyth County and funded through ARPA supported by the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners.  Films and dates announced for 2024 are:  *Jan. 7 & 10 – 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968, directed by Stanley Kubrick) – A look at human evolution leading to a tense  showdown between man and machine.
