"Breaking Into New Hollywood: Minari" (Q&A with costume designer Susanna Song) Fashion fans and aspiring costume designers: come join our 5th anniversary screening of "Minari"! The film will be followed by a conversation between "Minari‘s" costume designer Susanna Song and "Breaking Into New Hollywood" co-author Ada Tseng. Synopsis: A Korean American family moves to an Arkansas farm in search of its own American dream. Amidst the challenges of new life in the strange and rugged Ozarks, they discover the undeniable resilience of family and what really makes a home. For the 1980s costumes, costume designer Susanna Song drew on her own Korean American immigrant family, who moved to California in the late seventies. She combed through old family photo albums to capture the textures, colors and silhouettes of that era. Working closely with director Lee Isaac Chung, actor Steven Yeun, and producer Christina Oh, she built nostalgic wardrobes that included Jacob’s red hat, Monica’s blue blouse and polka-dot skirt and young David’s cowboy boots.

The tour is as much about the current legacy of jazz and its future over the next 100 years as it is a tribute to the past century of this art form, with reimagined tunes by both Miles Davis and John Coltrane.

Film Geeks SD and Media Arts Center San Diego present "Secret Morgue 666: Satanic Panic" (Or "The Devil Made Us Do It") at Comic-Con Museum. It's time for our annual horror movie marathon, this year with films inspired by the fear stirred up by the Satanic Panic of the 1980s and 90s. Tickets for the Event include: - 6 secret Satanic Panic movies - 2 meals (Lefty's Pizza and Bombay Coast return!) plus snacks - One bottle of (holy) water plus freshly brewed coffee and tea (while supply lasts) - Introductions by nerdy experts and filmmakers - Raffle prizes after each film - Plus you have an option to buy a devilishly discounted admission to Comic-Con Museum. Enjoy all the exhibits including Doctor Who during the breaks for just $15. Please read everything! Doors will open at 9:30 a.m. with first film at 10 a.m. "Satanic Panic" trailers along with other video treats will be running in the cinema from 9:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. for your diversion. We do suggest arriving early since parking starts to fill up quickly in Balboa Park. Exact schedule -- with film start times and meal breaks -- will be announced closer to event date in case you need to arrive between films. There will be an attendant at the door at each break to let in late arrivals or let people out. This is a SECRET Morgue, consequently, we will not reveal ANY titles until they screen. You just have to trust us to place some worthy cadavers on the slab. Additional Info: There will be vegetarian options at both meals but you can also bring your own food and drinks (no alcohol allowed) if you have additional food restrictions or just want to have additional snacks and drinks. We will provide one bottle of water per person and have coffee and tea brewing all night (or until we run out). You can wear jammies, bring blankets and pillows but you need to be considerate of your neighbors and not block anyone's view or infringe on their space. Horrorgasm will return with a "Satanic Panic" art show and we will have a few horror themed vendors on hand to tempt you with terrifying things to buy. There are no vendors inside the museum selling food or drinks, and there are limited options outside the museum to get anything fast. If you want vegan options, we can recommend WorldBeat Center nearby but suggest phoning any orders in early or you might have a long wait. Tickets are non-refundable but are transferrable.
