THE 10-MINUTE RULE
Seats for advance ticket and pass holders are held until 10 minutes before showtime, when any unfilled seats are released to the public. Thus, advance tickets or passes ensure that you will not have to wait in the ticket purchase line but do not guarantee a seat in the case of arrival after the 10-minute window has begun. Your early arrival also helps get screenings started promptly. We appreciate your understanding. Advance ticket holders who arrive within the 10-minute window but are not seated may exchange their tickets for another screening at the Ticket Outlet or obtain a cash refund at the theater. There are no refunds or exchanges for late arrivals or for missed screenings.

Welcome to our 25th edition of Reel Music. We've been on the look out over the year for new works—and very timely classics—for our annual celebration of sound and image and music and culture. As always, our special thanks go to Willamette Week and Music Millennium for helping to make it all happen.

In a career that spanned five decades, Robert Altman (1925 – 2006) left no genre untouched Scorning the emotional dishonesty of typical Hollywood formula pictures, he aggressively sought to subvert, innovate and reinvent the very boundaries of filmmaking. Ever the cinema's malcontent, Altman employed unorthodox methods such as overlapping dialogue, semi-improvisatory techniques, and documentary style camera work to realize his now-trademark vision of cinematic verisimilitude.

As the long-time director of the Oregon Historical Society (1954-1989), one of Thomas Vaughan's key interests was film preservation and the building of the Society's Moving Image Archive. Today, the Society's holdings exceed 20,000 titles, including early newsreels, family movies, television programs and commercial/industrial film produced by professional and amateur Northwest filmmakers from 1902 to today. Vaughan's regard for film as document, and as a medium for telling history, is also evident in his own career as a filmmaker. He has produced of a unique body of historical films, which he has written and produced in collaboration with George Hood and the late Ted Hallock. While rooted in the past, these very personal appreciations offer valuable perspective on events in the world today
