DESCRIPTION:FREE for members and non-members \n(running time 94 minutes)  \nThe Wild One illuminates the journey of an unsung artist\, Jack Garfein – Holocaust survivor\, celebrated Broadway director\, Actors Studio West co-founder\, and controversial filmmaker. The film delves into how his experience in the concentration camps shaped his vision of acting as a survival mechanism and propelled his engagement with themes of violence\, power\, and racism in postwar America in two explosive films: The Strange One (1957) and Something Wild (1961). The Wild One examines the importance of Garfein’s legacy as an artist who confronted censorship and reveals how art can draw on personal memory to better enlighten our present. \nWinner Best Cinematography | Tribeca Film Festival
