Danny Glover and Charles Burnett on the set of To Sleep with Anger (Burnett, 1990).
The Museum of Modern Art's Charles Burnett retrospective opens April 6, with the director's shattering Killer of Sheep, which MoMA quite accurately describes as "a harsh Neorealist portrait of Los Angeles ghetto life." Burnett will introduce that film in person, along with April 7-9 screenings of My Brother's Wedding, To Sleep with Anger, The Glass Shield, Nambia: The Struggle for Liberation, and the little-seen The Annihilation of Fish. The retrospective continues through April 25. Complete details are at MoMA's website.

Warner Bros. publicity still
Perching on a well-worn sofa, [Lars] von Trier surveys the cosy clutter around his studio. There's a big TV, piles of papers and a PS3 still in its box. "This is the deer that I shot," says the director pointing towards a deer's head mounted on the wall. The deer does not look like it's forgiven him. "No, it looks extremely mad!" laughs von Trier. "Every time I feel good, I look at this and I feel bad again."
