From the National Gallery of Art's website:
Four rarely shown sound features and one short film by Carl Theodor Dreyer (1889–1968) are presented in recently restored or preserved prints to mark the 120th anniversary of his birth. While the director's dedication to the form and contributions to world cinema are now celebrated, his first sound film Vampyr was a commercial failure, and the war and other material matters interfered with the accomplishment of these later works. Ultimately, however, they became his most remarkable achievements. The Gallery wishes to thank the Danish Film Institute for its cooperation in loaning these films.The schedule:
Today, August 2 at 4:30 p.m. Vampyr (1932) and the short film They Caught The Ferry (1948)
August 9, 4:30 p.m. Day of Wrath (1943)
August 16, 4:30 p.m. Ordet (1955)
