SCHEDULE
7pm | Arnold Schwarzenegger in conversation with Dian Hanson, Senior Editor and Writer at TASCHEN

Immediately followed by a screening of Terminator 2: Judgment Day in 3D.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day
Arnold Schwarzenegger returned to the role that helped make him an international movie star—an unstoppable killing machine from the future—in this supersized sci-fi action sequel from writer-director James Cameron. Schwarzenegger’s Terminator is back and as fearsome as ever but with a twist; this time he’s been reprogrammed to protect Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) and her young son John (Edward Furlong)—the future leader of the human resistance against the machine-ruled dystopian Earth—and faces a new and deadly foe in the “liquid metal” T-1000, played by Robert Patrick with the aid of groundbreaking computer-animated effects. Portraying a “friendly” Terminator gave Schwarzenegger the opportunity to refine the combination of physical presence, droll delivery, and understated warmth that has served him so well in the decades since. The film won Oscars for its makeup, sound, sound effects editing, and visual effects, and was also nominated for cinematography and film editing.
