With an introduction by AGO Deputy Director & Chief Curator, Julian Cox.
Join us for a special screening of The Goldfinch, the film adaptation of Donna Tartt’s globally acclaimed best-selling novel.
The Goldfinch tells the story of Theodore "Theo" Decker, who was 13 years old when his mother was killed in a bombing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The tragedy changes the course of his life, sending him on an odyssey of grief and guilt, reinvention and redemption, and even love. Through it all, he holds on to one tangible piece of hope from that terrible day...a painting of a tiny bird chained to its perch. The Goldfinch. The film features a renowned cast led by Ansel Elgort as Theo Decker and Academy Award winner Nicole Kidman as Mrs. Barbour.
