From his origin as a symbol of the atomic menace, through his years as a colossal defender of the Earth, to modern incarnations that continue to reimagine his identity, Godzilla has proven to be a remarkably malleable cinematic icon, his image as indestructible as the monster himself. Throughout the day, be on the lookout for the famous kaiju on the move around the museum! Sunday, November 3, 2024 | David Geffen Theater Programmed and notes by Robert Reneau.
