DESCRIPTION:\n	“America is the Pleasure Dome of the world . . . There’ll al
 ways be a penalty to pay for these artificial paradises.” —Kenneth Anger 
 \n\n\n	The Devil Is a Woman \n	\n	Dir. Josef von Sternberg. 1935. 76 mins.
  35mm. With Marlene Dietrich\, Cesar Romero. We invited Kenneth Anger to t
 ell us which film we should program with his Inauguration of the Pleasure 
 Dome\, and he suggested “something by [costume designer] Travis Banton for
  von Sternberg or DeMille.” The Devil Is a Woman\, like Anger’s film\, mak
 es masquerade its leitmotif. Dietrich’s uber-sensuous Concha Perez enjoys 
 a game of seduction while flaunting Banton’s veils\, outlandish headpieces
 \, fans\, and fringes. \n\n\n	Preceded by: \n	\n	Inauguration of the Pleas
 ure Dome \n	\n	Dir. Kenneth Anger. 1954/1966. 38 mins. 16mm print. With Sa
 mson De Brier\, Marjorie Cameron\, Joan Whitney\, Anaïs Nin. A hedonistic 
 costume extravaganza through and through. The idea for the film was in fac
 t born from a masquerade party Anger attended in 1953. Anger transformed t
 his experience into a hallucinatory cinematic vision\, a ritual that is bo
 th enigmatic and idiosyncratic. \n	\n\nFree with Museum admission.\n
