On July 28, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art announced it would be scrapping its 40-year-old weekend film program, a result of declining audiences and losses of about $1 million over the last decade. LACMA director Michael Govan said the museum considers this “a pause for re-thinking” while the staff creates a more adventurous program. Since then, several supporters of the program, including a group that calls itself Save Film at LACMA, have spoken out about the decision. LACMA’s film program is scheduled to cease after its final offering, “The Classic Films of Alain Resnais,” Oct. 2 to 17.
