An original, critically acclaimed love story that explores the boundaries of artificial intelligence and the evolving nature and risks of intimacy in the modern world, writer/director Spike Jonze's Her will enjoy a special Free Film at the Figge screening on December 14, with the Davenport art museum's patrons invited to socialize and discuss the Oscar-winning movie afterward with a complimentary glass of wine.

The rare prequel that actually makes a solid case for its existence, director Francis Lawrence's terrific dystopian thriller kept me invested for the entirety of its two-and-a-half hours – even if it was slightly odd that this big-budget, large-scale return of cinematic YA lit is wholly stolen by its grown-ups.

If you know in advance that writer/director Sofia Coppola's latest film is going to cover the life of Priscilla Presley from the week of her introduction to Elvis to the day she walked out of Graceland for good, and also know that only one performer is going to play the role from ages 14 through 27, your first sight of Priscilla lead Cailee Spaeny might come as a shock.

In a program held in collaboration with Azubuike African American Council for the Arts and in conjunction with the venue's current exhibition Art & Activism at Tougaloo College, the hour-long documentary Standing Strong: Elizabeth Catlett will enjoy a November 9 screening at Davenport's Figge Art Museum, the Mid-America Emmy-nominated film highlighting the story of its titular artist and activist.
