Seconds (35mm)

Wednesday, May 27, 2026, 7:30 p.m., Dryden Theatre

(John Frankenheimer, US 1966, 106 min., 35mm)

James Wong Howe provides the amazing camerawork for one of cinema's most complex, terrifying works of science fiction. A mysterious organization gives a middle-aged man a new lease on life: thanks to a staged death and the wonders of plastic surgery, the stodgy businessman metamorphoses into sexy artist Rock Hudson. But he soon finds his fantasy life to be an empty trap. Daring and disturbing, Seconds unfolds new layers of anxiety that linger long after you've left the theater. Profound, powerful filmmaking.
