Selected from major studio releases and top film festivals by curators in MoMA’s Department of Film, selections shown in The Contenders represent the best of mainstream movies, independents, foreign-language films, documentaries, and art-house sensations. Now in its seventh year, the series highlights films that are contenders for lasting historical significance, often with special appearances by directors and actors. Previous guests have included directors Alfonso Cuarón (Gravity, 2013), Kathryn Bigelow (Zero Dark Thirty, 2012), and David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook, 2012) and actors Jake Gyllenhaal (Prisoners, 2013), Jonah Hill (The Wolf of Wall Street, 2013), and Kristen Wiig (Bridesmaids, 2011).

Opening the series at MoMA on November 13 is the New York premiere of J. C. Chandor’s third feature film, A Most Violent Year (2014), which stars Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain as residents of New York City during 1981, when the scourge of crime was a daily reality. Opening the series at the Hammer Museum on December 8 is Snowpiercer (2014), directed by Bong Joon-ho and starring Chris Evans, Tilda Swinton, and Ed Harris. Both J. C. Chandor and Bong Joon-ho will participate in post-screening discussions immediately following their respective films.
