A surprise title brought to you by the studio behind 'Moonlight,' 'Everything Everywhere All At Once,' 'Past Lives' and 'Midsommar.'
DFS 75th Alumni Fest (Nov 7-10)Founded in 2012, A24 has enjoyed a sharp rise in reputation over the past decade, becoming an arthouse darling and a formidable awards season force. With Best Picture wins for Barry Jenkins' coming-of-age drama Moonlight and Daniels' multiverse-hopper Everything Everywhere All at Once (with seven Oscars across 11 nominations), A24 has cemented its reputation for cinematic excellence and bold creativity.
They have reinvented arthouse horror with titles like The Witch, Hereditary and Midsommar, poignant stories about family like Lady Bird, Aftersun, Minari and Janet Planet, and films that stand apart as utterly unique, like The Lighthouse, High Life, and Under the Skin.
A24 has fostered a fervent fanbase over the years, with strong brand recognition among film buffs, and tonight we get a sneak screening of a brand-new A24 film, a surprise title courtesy of A24 executive Mac Simonson '16.
Co-sponsored by the Leslie Center for the Humanities, the Department of Film & Media Studies, the Magnuson Center for Entrepreneurship and the Center for Professional Development.
Mac Simonson has been at A24 since 2016, working on releases including Stop Making Sense (Jonathan Demme), Showing Up and First Cow (Kelly Reichardt), First Reformed (Paul Schrader), The Souvenir (Joanna Hogg), High Life and Stars at Noon (Claire Denis), Aftersun (Charlotte Wells), Janet Planet (Annie Baker), and I Saw the TV Glow (Jane Schoenbrun). At Dartmouth he majored in English and minored in Philosophy, and worked for the late Hop Film director Bill Pence on the Telluride Film Festival's shorts programs in 2014 and 2015. He lives and works in New York.
