About the Event

Together, Michael Giacchino and Brad Bird trace the arc of a filmmaking life that began with a handmade short sent to Disney at age fourteen and has never stopped reaching for something extraordinary—and along the way, share stories from over two decades of creative partnership that you won’t have heard anywhere else. Funny, candid, and deeply felt, this is an evening for anyone who has ever loved a movie.
