DESCRIPTION:\n	Saturday’s screening will be followed by a live online conve
 rsation with director Marjane Satrapi and star Rosamund Pike. The Sunday s
 creening will be followed by the recorded conversation. \n\n\n	Dir. Marjan
 e Satrapi. 2020\, 109 mins. With Rosamund Pike\, Sam Riley\, Aneurin Barna
 rd\, Anya Taylor-Joy\, Simon Russell Beale. Museum of the Moving Image is 
 pleased to present an advance screening of Marjane Satrapi’s historical dr
 ama Radioactive\, based on the incredible life and work of Marie Sklodowsk
 a Curie (portrayed by Rosamund Pike)\, who overcame personal and professio
 nal hardships to become one of the most famous scientists of all time and 
 the first woman to win a Nobel Prize—and the first person to receive two. 
 Satrapi’s film both dramatizes Curie’s discoveries and tells a thoughtful 
 account of the role scientists\, and women\, play in society\, reminding u
 s that we live in a world that Curie helped form. Radioactive is adapted f
 rom Lauren Redniss’s graphic novel of the same name. On Saturday\, July 18
  following the 1:00 p.m. EDT screening\, Satrapi and Pike will participate
  in a live online conversation and Q&amp\;A moderated by Science on Screen
  curator Sonia Epstein. Radioactive will be officially released on July 24
  on Amazon Prime. View trailer.\n\n\n	“As startling as it is to see the be
 loved scientist hated in her time\, that we’re able to see this headstrong
  legend as a sexual being at all is a credit to how much [Rosamund] Pike g
 radually humanizes her as a woman\, while never pleading for our pity.”—Va
 riety \n	\n\n\n	RSVP here for Saturday or Sunday’s online screening and yo
 u will receive a link and access code one hour before start time. The scre
 ening room will include a link to directly tune into the live online conve
 rsation. \n\n\n	About the participants: \n\n\n	Rosamund Pike is an Academy
