This is the epic, untold story of how same-sex marriage became law of the land. Documenting one of the greatest civil rights stories of our time, The Freedom to Marry is a nail-biting, behind-the-scenes story that traces the marriage equality movement’s historic progress and reveals the masterminds of the movement as they lead the fight to win same sex marriage throughout the United States. This is an inspirational tale of how people can actually make a difference and ultimately, a powerful playbook for social change.

As spring blossoms at the Modern, we are excited to renew our annual call to support the Docent Memorial Art Camp Appeal. For those unfamiliar with this effort, since 2009 (excluding pandemic years) we have honored the memory and dedication of docents who have served before and alongside us by helping young people in need attend Art Camp and Art Study. In recent years we’ve commemorated the contributions of Don Matheson, Martin Posner, Janice Raoul, Robert Turner III, and many others who made an enduring imprint on the Modern’s docent program.
Yves Robert, 1972
PG; 90 minutes; French with English subtitles
Desperate to protect his job from a bureaucratic rival, the head of the French secret service (Jean Rochefort) picks outs a stranger, François Perrin (Pierre Richard), from a Paris crowd and singles him out as a master spy who should be tracked very closely. In reality, François is an amiable, if clumsy, classical violinist whose complete obliviousness to the agents watching him only further convinces them that they have a major undercover operative in their sights.
Stanley Donen, 1967

Architect Mark Wallace (Albert Finney) and his wife, Joanna (Audrey Hepburn), travel to France to meet with an affluent client (Claude Dauphin). While there, they reflect on their first decade of marriage—memories of when they first met, of courtship, and of road trips through the French countryside. As flirtation and playful quarreling turn to boredom with the banality of married life, the Wallaces struggle to rekindle their passion.
