Rebels with a Cause
An in-depth exploration of what boys teach us about humanity and culture, and a call to action to assess the crisis of connection we have created, in order to stop a vicious cycle of violence and blame In her previous groundbreaking book that was the inspiration for the Oscar-nominated film Close, NYU professor of developmental psychology Niobe Way describes her research findings that boys and young men have the same emotional and relational intelligence as all other humans and want and need the same thing, which is each other. Yet they grow up in a 'boy' culture that makes them and us think otherwise. Thus, they have a hard time finding what they want and need, especially as they become men. Now in her new book Rebels with a Cause, Way takes it one step further and reveals how these 'rebels with a cause,' as she calls them, not only teach us about themselves but also about ourselves and why we, too, are having such a hard time, as evidenced by the soaring rates of depression,

Pedro Almodóvar: Installation/Instalación
A visually immersive exploration of the provocative and humanistic themes at the heart of Almodóvar’s cinema Published with Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. Pedro Almodóvar is one of the most daring and influential writer-directors of our time. He directed his first feature in 1980, during La Movida Madrileña (the Madrid Scene), a countercultural and democratic movement in Spain, and has been pushing boundaries for over four decades. Often outlandish and provocative, and rife with passion, Almodóvar’s 22 films to date explore the full spectrum of the human condition. In the process, they have transformed Spanish cinema and contributed invaluably to the global film scene. Pedro Almodóvar: Installation/Instalación accompanies an immersive exhibition created by Almodóvar for the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles. Spanning 1984’s What Have I Done to Deserve This? to 2019’s Pain and Glory, Almodóvar’s 12-channel film installation distills his filmography around iconic

The Birth of Pleasure: A New Map of Love
The author of the classic In a Different Voice offers a brilliant, provocative book about love that has powerful implications for the way we live and love today. 'Compelling ... A thrilling new paradigm.' --The Times Literary Supplement Carol Gilligan, whose In a Different Voice revolutionized the study of human psychology, now asks: Why is love so often associated with tragedy? Why are our experiences of pleasure so often shadowed by loss? And can we change these patterns? Gilligan observes children at play and adult couples in therapy and discovers that the roots of a more hopeful view of love are all around us. She finds evidence in new psychological research and traces a path leading from the myth of Psyche and Cupid through Shakespeare's plays and Freud's case histories, to Anne Frank's diaries and contemporary novels.
