Museum Films welcomes 2026 with a vibrant January film lineup that blends awards-season contenders with visionary world cinema and classic Technicolor treasures. Returning for additional screenings, Joachim Trier’s Sentimental Value—an Oscar frontrunner and Cannes Grand Prix winner—offers a poignant portrait of family and artistic ambition. Other highlights include Bi Gan’s kaleidoscopic, genre-spanning epic Resurrection; Jim Jarmusch’s Venice-winning family triptych Father Mother Sister Brother; Kleber Mendonça Filho’s politically charged thriller The Secret Agent; Lav Diaz’s haunting historical saga Magellan; and Park Chan-wook’s delectably dark satire No Other Choice.
Complementing these contemporary festival favorites, our Technicolor Wonderland series concludes its celebration of mid-century color cinema with Douglas Sirk’s lush melodrama Written on the Wind; Nicholas Ray’s gripping suburban critique Bigger Than Life; a new 4K restoration of Hitchcock’s striking psychodrama Marnie; and Fellini’s Juliet of the Spirits, a surreal, visually extravagant journey through memory and self-discovery. A striking new addition to our January schedule, Luis Buñuel’s electrifying masterwork Viridiana returns to the Noble Theater in a new restoration.
OKCMOA’s Technicolor Wonderland film series is sponsored by The Honorable Jerome A. Holmes.
