HONOLULU, HAWAI‘I—Now in its 15th year, the Honolulu Jewish Film Festival is among the museum’s longest running film programs, and it shows no signs of slowing down. Once again the festival brings a lineup of documentaries, dramatic films, and comedies from the Jewish diaspora. The festival is presented in partnership with Temple Emanu-El in memory of Kirk Cashmere.

Trekkies rejoice! The festival includes a screening of the Leonard Nimoy biopic For the Love of Spock. Directed by Nimoy’s son Adam Nimoy, the film was originally meant to be a collaborative effort by father and son to examine the character Mr. Spock as part of the 50th anniversary of Star Trek the original series. When Leonard Nimoy passed in February 2015, the film became a tribute from son to father.

A series of documentaries highlight the influence of the Jewish community on the performing arts, including Broadway Musicals: A Jewish Legacy. Narrated by Academy Award® winner Joel Grey, the film reveals the role Jewish songwriters have played in the creation of the modern American musical, and shows how elements of traditional Jewish music can still be heard in Broadway melodies.

The festival opens March 4, with a reception and a screening of the 2016 film Denial. Starring Academy Award® winner Rachel Weisz, the films tells the real life story of Deborah Lipstadt, an author who included World War II historian David Irving in a book about Holocaust deniers, and was subsequently sued for libel in British courts, where the system favors the plaintiff. In the age of “alternative facts,” this film, and the events on which it is based, are more relevant than ever.

Also in March—the theater gives millennials a reason to feel old by marking milestone anniversaries of some iconic films, including the 25th anniversary of Reservoir Dogs, the 25th anniversary of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, and the 15th anniversary of Donnie Darko. Twin Peaks fans can enjoy some pie, donuts, and a damn fine cup of coffee to get the full Agent Cooper experience. Fans of Reservoir Dogs are encouraged to come dressed like their favorite character. Donnie Darko aficionados can look forward to watching the 4K restoration of the cult classic, and can expect things to get a bit…weird.

He cunningly plays with the inspector, leaving clues designed to make their game of cat-and-mouse ever more perilous. In this story of a persecuted poet and his obsessive adversary, Neruda recognizes his own heroic possibilities: a chance to become a symbol for liberty, as well as a literary legend.

In fact, he is highly intelligent and sensitive, a fact made public when one Dr. Frederick Treves (Anthony Hopkins) rescues Merrick from a carnival and brings him to a hospital for analysis. Alas, even after being recognized as a man of advanced intellect, Merrick is still treated like a freak; no matter his station in life, he will forever be a prisoner of his own malformed body.

Saturday, Apr 1 at 1 p.m.
From award-winning director Phil Grabsky comes this fresh new look at arguably the world’s favorite artist – through his own words.

Based on over 2500 letters and narrated by Henry Goodman, I, Claude Monet reveals new insight into the man who not only painted the picture that gave birth to impressionism but who was perhaps the most influential and successful painter of the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Monet’s life is a gripping tale about a man who, behind his sun-dazzled canvases, suffered from feelings of depression, loneliness, even suicide. However as his art developed and his love of gardening led to the glories of his Giverny garden, his humor, insight and love of life are revealed.

Shot on location throughout Europe at the very spots he painted, I, Claude Monet is a fresh and intimate cinematic exploration of some of the most loved and iconic scenes in western art.

He returns home the next morning to find that a jet engine has crashed through his bedroom. As he tries to figure out why he survived and tries to deal with people in his town, like the school bully, his conservative health teacher, and a self-help guru, Frank continues to turn up in Donnie's mind, causing him to commit acts of vandalism and worse.
