For the third year running, Oscar, Grammy, and Golden Globe-winning composer Michael Giacchino returns to host an intimate conversation with one of Hollywood’s most beloved filmmakers. Brad Bird is a two-time Academy Award winner whose films—"The Iron Giant," "The Incredibles," "Ratatouille," "Mission: Impossible–Ghost Protocol," "Incredibles 2"—have a way of sneaking up on you emotionally no matter how many times you’ve seen them. Giacchino’s scores are inseparable from the worlds Bird creates; if you’ve felt your heart lift during the opening of "The Incredibles "or found yourself unexpectedly moved by a rat making soup in Paris, that’s Michael’s music doing its quiet, powerful work. Together, they trace the arc of a filmmaking life that began with a handmade short sent to Disney at age fourteen and has never stopped reaching for something extraordinary—and along the way, share stories from over two decades of creative partnership that you won’t have heard anywhere else. Funny, candid, and deeply felt, this is an evening for anyone who has ever loved a movie. ArtPower at UC San Diego on Facebook / Instagram
