Thrilled that Milestone Film's new restoration of QUEEN KELLY is premiering at La Biennale di Venezia, complete with a score from IU alum Eli Denson, commissioned as part of IU Cinema's Jon Vickers Scoring Award program. So proud that IU Cinema is able to contribute to cinema history in this way.

Biennale Cinema 2025 | Queen Kelly (1929) di Erich von Stroheim film di Preapertura della 82. Mostra
