Programmed December 2021

Starring Glenda Jackson

One of the most lauded performers of her generation, Glenda Jackson is known both for her dazzling work on stage and screen and, in later years, her commanding career as an outspoken member of the UK Parliament’s left wing (referring to herself as an “antisocial socialist”). Bringing an air of steely vulnerability to her intense portrayals of complex women, she has collaborated with provocative filmmakers like John Schlesinger (in the groundbreaking queer relationship drama Sunday Bloody Sunday ) and Ken Russell (in the deliriously unhinged Tchaikovsky antibiopic The Music Lovers ) but has proven herself equally at home in lighthearted romps like the breezy spy comedy Hopscotch opposite Walter Matthau.
