There is always something new to engage, educate, or entertain you at the Eastman Museum. At all times, at least three temporary exhibitions on photography and cinema—most of which change about every four months—in the main exhibition galleries, the Project Gallery for contemporary works, and the History of Photography Gallery. George Eastman’s historic mansion and gardens, where one can see how this visionary entrepreneur and philanthropist lived for almost 30 years during the early twentieth century—one of only two National Historic Landmarks in Monroe County. You can also explore the museum from home with virtual tours available at /virtual-tours. Founded in 1947, the George Eastman Museum is the world’s oldest photography museum and one of the largest film archives in the United States, located on the historic Rochester estate of entrepreneur and philanthropist George Eastman, the pioneer of popular photography.

The Georgia charges came in a r acketeering indictment in Fulton County in August that accused Trump and 18 others of participating in a wide-ranging scheme — that included the Republican elector effort — to illegally try to overturn his narrow loss in the state. At least five states that were won in 2020 by President Joe Biden have investigated efforts to install slates of electors who would cast Electoral College votes for Trump despite his loss. Those slates were to be used by Trump allies in the House and Senate to justify delaying or blocking the certification of the election during the joint session of Congress on Jan. 6, 2021, which was disrupted by pro-Trump rioters storming the Capitol. ATLANTA (AP) — As Donald Trump seeks a return to the White House, criminal charges are piling up for the people who tried to help him stay there in 2020 by promoting false theories of voter fraud. For cinephiles, the video and audio fidelity of Blu-ray discs far surpasses the often compressed output of streaming services, delivering a cleaner, more immersive experience. To receive the gift, the trustees must raise enough money to build a new facility or renovate an existing structure that must be located in Rochester.
“Simon Killer” (IFC Films)
Kusama’s direction skillfully balances the raw, intense boxing scenes with quieter moments of personal growth, emphasizing the film’s theme of self-realization. The authenticity of the setting and the characters’ struggles is vividly brought to life with a new 4K digital restoration, supervised by Kusama and director of photography Patrick Cady. The re-release is enhanced by a 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack, immersing viewers in the gritty world of the gym and Brooklyn. New interviews with Kusama, editor Plummy Tucker, composer Theodore Shapiro and an essay by acclaimed author Carmen Maria Machado provide deeper insights into the film’s creative process, themes, and cultural impact.
REPUBLICAN TRUMP ELECTORS
She pleaded guilty in October to one felony count of aiding and abetting false statements and writings after reaching a deal with prosecutors. She wasn’t charged in connection with the Republican electors efforts in Georgia. In addition to a ton of legacy bonus material, the reissue features a new commentary track and a featurette where Leonard Maltin sings its praises. The building has gradually become more of a warehouse, with less and less space for scholars and the public.

In early January, New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez said that state’s five Republican electors cannot be prosecuted under the current law. In New Mexico and Pennsylvania, fake electors added a caveat saying the election certificate was submitted in case they were later recognized as duly elected, qualified electors. A Trump campaign staffer and onetime White House aide, Roman was charged with several conspiracy counts related to the Republican elector meeting and the filing of the elector certificate in Georgia.
George Eastman Museum
In this space, you’ll find the main galleries that highlight the Eastman Museum’s amazing collection of photography and film. These include photographs that date back to the very earliest days of photography up through to the present day. The museum was opened in 1949 and is the oldest museum in the world dedicated to photography.

The suspect – Ephraim Matthew Hunter, 29 – was charged with felony residential burglary with a person present charge, felony vandalism charge and one prior strike from a previous case in Massachusetts, Gascon said. Eastman Kodak has been the dominant supporter of the museum over the years (contributing about $1 million annually), but the museum’s financial needs have outpaced the company’s original commitment. In recent months, one solution proposed was transferring the archive to the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. After spending 5.5 years exploring Pennsylvania, Jim discovered a love for New York and is excited to spend time exploring this great state and uncovering the best things to do here.

American Idol Remembers Mandisa: Watch Danny Gokey, Melinda Doolittle and Colton Dixon’s Emotional Tribute
Herbert Ross’ 1989 film starring Sally Field, Dolly Parton, Shirley MacLaine, Daryl Hannah, Olympia Dukakis and Julia Roberts celebrates its 35th anniversary this year with a new 4K release featuring remastered picture and sound. Included are legacy bonus features such as a commentary from Ross, the featurette “In Full Bloom,” and ten deleted scenes, as well as the 1990 TV pilot for CBS starring Cindy Williams, Sally Kirkland, Elaine Stritch and Polly Bergen. The George Eastman Museum is located in Rochester, NY on the estate of George Eastman, the pioneer of popular photography and motion picture film, entrepreneur, and founder of the Eastman Kodak Company. Founded in 1947 as an independent nonprofit institution, it is the world’s oldest photography museum and one of the oldest film archives. The museum holds unparalleled collections—encompassing several million objects—in the fields of photography, cinema, and photographic and cinematographic technology, and photographically illustrated books. The institution is also a longtime leader in film preservation and photographic conservation.
In a statement, Hoffman accused Mayes of weaponizing the attorney general’s office in bringing the case but didn’t directly comment on the indictment’s allegations. The Arizona charges come after a string of indictments against fake electors in other states. The 11 people who had been nominated to be Arizona’s Republican electors met in Phoenix on Dec. 14, 2020, to sign a certificate saying they were “duly elected and qualified” electors and claiming that Trump carried the state. A one-minute video of the signing ceremony was posted on social media by the Arizona Republican Party at the time. The document was later sent to Congress and the National Archives, where it was ignored.
I especially loved the many older models of cameras that were on display (both from Kodak and other companies). Eastman's house presented a neoclassical Georgian Revival facade of decorative craftsmanship. Beneath this exterior were such modern conveniences as an electrical generator, an internal telephone system with 21 stations, a built-in vacuum cleaning system, a central clock network, an elevator, and a great Aeolian pipe organ.
Michael Powell’s 1960 thriller about a photographer who murders women and records their deaths offers one of cinema’s most piercing and thought-provoking examinations of the power of the medium. Long venerated (not least of which because of Criterion’s earlier editions), the distributor offers a stunning new 4K restoration of the film alongside extraordinary insights from the likes of Martin Scorsese and his editor, Thelma Schoonmaker. Featuring a new 4K restoration, this new edition pays proper tribute to the film’s achievements and the loss of Lee, with two commentaries, a three-part documentary, extended scenes, and more.
Overall, the George Eastman Museum is a fantastic place to visit when exploring this corner of the Finger Lakes. Whether you love photography, history, or just learning about one of the most influential men in the history of Upstate New York, this is definitely a great place to add to your Rochester itinerary. If you have even a passing interest in photography, you are sure to love this portion of the museum. The museum features a large and modern exhibit space that is located behind and connected to Eastman’s home. The Aeolian Pipe Organ is a “player” instrument much like an old fashioned player piano complete with paper rolls that activate the sounds of the pipe organ. The organ is undergoing a complete restoration, but with 72 of its 132 sounds now playing you would be hard pressed to think that anything was missing.
But it’s not without its charms, including Jessica Lange’s debut performance and the only full-scale Kong ever created (never mind that it barely worked). Featuring both the film’s theatrical cut and an extended TV version running a whopping 46 minutes longer, this 4K release guarantees you can watch its anachronistic (but Oscar-winning!) visual effects more clearly than ever before. This wild East-meets-West collaboration between “Thriller — A Cruel Picture” actress Christina Lindberg and Japanese pinky violence superstar Reiko Ike must be seen to be believed. Trump was indicted in August in federal court over efforts to cling to power after his defeat, including the fake electors scheme.
Disney has always maintained a robust presence in the physical media market, so the fact that they’re now issuing hard copies of series that premiered on the company’s streaming service isn’t surprising. But for completists like yours truly, and the few fans of Marvel and/ or Lucasfilm who don’t have a subscription to Disney+, having these series on disc is a godsend. Personally speaking, I’m most excited about “Andor,” which is extraordinarily cinematic and has such beautiful visuals, but having these on the shelf next to theatrical MCU projects offers a new opportunity to view them in the context of a larger storytelling network. That they all come with featurette and documentary content to further explore their worlds is a welcome bonus.
