DESCRIPTION:In Painters Painting, de Antonio and cinematographer Ed Emshwiller 
 chronicle the work of 13 painters in New York through interviews and 
 substantial studio observation. As one contemporary reviewer noted, 
 “It’s a great big, cheerfully uncritical hug of a movie about a subject 
 [de Antonio] adores: the contemporary New York art scene and the people who 
 make it hustle.” De Antonio’s final film, Mr. Hoover and I, is a 
 combination personal essay and documentary exposé of J. Edgar Hoover. 
 Without collage or biting juxtaposition, the filmmaker takes us through his 
 own 10,000-page FBI file, rounding out the picture with a variety of 
 supplemental footage: a conversation with John Cage about art, a college 
 speaking engagement on Joseph McCarthy and the Iran-Contra hearings, and a 
 haircut by his wife Nancy. “Mr. Hoover and I is made of poor means,” de 
 Antonio wrote, “but it is ambitious—more ambitious than Batman.” 
 \n\n$5 general, students, and seniors. Double features: films offered on 
 the same date are included in one ticket. Program tickets are available at 
 the Museum (no surcharge) or through http://www.sfmoma.org/tickets 
 (surcharge applies). \n
