She has orange paint on her face around her eyes and is bearing statement earrings and a sparkly necklace adorned with rhinestones. Although cut off, her hand can be seen in the frame, holding a full martini glass. The image features a hot pink filter, adding to the sense of drama. In the background is a shirtless, bald man wearing a necklace.

Cowboy Cinema

Friday, November 3, 2017, 7 p.m.

Location: The Warhol theater

The black and white image is taken from the 1939 black and white film, Stagecoach, starring the American actor John Wayne. In the image, actors John Wayne (on the left) and Claire Trevor (on right) face one another, in conversation. Wayne’s demeanor and expression are calm as he casually leans onto the wooden fence standing in between the two of them. He loosely wears a wide-brimmed, tan cowboy hat and a dark jacket. On the right, Trevor leans in towards Wayne. Her attitude appears serious—her brows are wrinkled and her hands are held closely together resting on the fence. Though the background is out of focus, the dim outline of tree branches suggests that the two are outside. At the bottom of the image there are subtitles in Farsi translating the dialogue. Translation is not available.
