The first ever film major at the Rhode Island School of Design, the first female president of the Directors Guild of America, and the first to cast Nicolas Cage as a lead in a feature film, the legendary Martha Coolidge will be joining the American Cinematheque in-person for another iconic first: our first retrospective devoted to her work as a trailblazing filmmaker.

Films include: Not A Pretty Picture, Valley Girl, Real Genius, Angie, Lost In Yonkers, Rambling Rose, Introducing Dorothy Dandridge, The Prince And Me And Out To Sea

Coolidge flips the script on her 1983 rom-com VALLEY GIRL when the hard-working pre-med student Paige (Julia Styles) collides with less than genteel king-to-be of Denmark Eddie (Luke Mably) and must decide if he fits into the future she is working towards in the charming modern fairytale, THE PRINCE AND ME.
