The program, roughly every two months at Toronto’s historic Revue Cinema, will feature some of the most beautiful films ever made. A post-screening Q&A with each film’s Director of Photography will engage the audience on the artistic and technical aspects of cinematography.

The series will launch Sunday August 1 at 3pm with The THIN RED LINE (1998), shot by two-time Oscar winner John Toll, ASC. Directed by Terrence Malick and starring Sean Penn, The Thin Red Line is an elegant and poetic adaptation of James Jones’ acclaimed novel about the dramatic Battle of Guadalcanal during World War II.

Los Angeles-based Toll will take part in the discussion via Skype. Moderating the Q&A is Arthur Cooper, CSC, the Director of Photography of a number of successful feature films including ONE WEEK and YOUNG PEOPLE F*CKING.

Curating and hosting the screenings is Alan Bacchus Toronto-based writer, filmmaker and film industry professional, a film contributor for Exclaim!, and the creator of Daily Film Dose.com. He also programs Canadian Cinema in Revue, also at The Revue. Visit www.dailyfilmdose.com

The non-profit Canadian Society of Cinematographers was established in 1957 to promote the art and craft of cinematography and to recognize the common bonds that link film and video professionals, from the aspiring student and camera assistant to the news veteran and senior director of photography.

Film screenings for new parents at The Revue.

The next baby-friendly presentation will be on Monday, August 2nd at 1:00pm and will feature the film Micmacs.

The experience in the auditorium is baby-friendly, with the volume turned down to protect sensitive ears. And, of course, if your baby cries you’re among friends (though most babies are easily calmed in the darkened theatre). Don’t miss this chance to enjoy recent films from around the world with friends, both big and small, in a baby-friendly environment. Plus, there's stroller parking, bottle warming and diapers and wipes on hand!

Tickets for Baby & You at The Revue screenings are $7 with your valid membership; children and seniors tickets are $6; and babies under 2 get in for free.
