February 10 - February 16, 2024 Bradley Cooper: An American Cinematheque Retrospective Series | MAESTRO, A STAR IS BORN, SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK, AMERICAN HUSTLE Aero Theatre and Los Feliz 3
ABOUT THE SERIES: The American Cinematheque is delighted to welcome the multi-talented Bradley Cooper, in person, to celebrate his ever-expanding contributions to cinema as the ultimate jack of all trades. A master of method, Cooper’s approach to character is all-encompassing, tapping into subconscious drives as well as walking the walk, taking on the physical form and demands of his character’s lived experiences. However, Cooper does not reserve this modus operandi to acting alone but to stories as a whole, with his latest work MAESTRO, starring, co-written, produced, and directed by Cooper, serving as a prime example of his highly involved hand. His dedication to storytelling is impossible to ignore, whether in the role of the lovable, down and out everyman in SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK to FBI agent in AMERICAN HUSTLE, or behind the camera, bringing a sharp new perspective on the timeless A STAR IS BORN. It is a gift generously shared with audiences for over two decades and, to our great privilege, with us at the American Cinematheque.
