2024 saw the cinematic landscape roar back to life, with JBFC proudly boasting a remarkable tally of 90 Oscar nominations for films we screened in the past year! Notable moments included powerful Sing Sing Q&As—for both our audience and Classroom to Screening Room school groups—with actors/Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA) alumni Clarence “Divine Eye” Maclin, Dario Peña, and more, celebrating the opening of Wicked with the Pleasantville community and local merchants as part of “Witches Weekend,” a special 35mm run of RaMell Ross’ Nickel Boys, a live Anora Q&A with Film Independent Spirit Award nominee Karren Karagulian, and an R.J. Cutler retrospective which included a preview screening of Elton John: Never Too Late followed by a Q&A with Cutler and his co-director David Furnish. Throughout the year, our programming showcased a diverse range of nominees, including all ten Best Picture contenders, with three more nominees (Sugarcane, Soundtrack to a Coup d’Etat, and The Girl With the Needle) slated to open on February 28.
