Danny Glover and Charles Burnett on the set of To Sleep with Anger (Burnett, 1990).
The Museum of Modern Art's Charles Burnett retrospective opens April 6, with the director's shattering Killer of Sheep, which MoMA quite accurately describes as "a harsh Neorealist portrait of Los Angeles ghetto life." Burnett will introduce that film in person, along with April 7-9 screenings of My Brother's Wedding, To Sleep with Anger, The Glass Shield, Nambia: The Struggle for Liberation, and the little-seen The Annihilation of Fish. The retrospective continues through April 25. Complete details are at MoMA's website.
