See below for schedule and descriptions.

"Julianne Moore has worked with many of the greatest contemporary directors," said David Schwartz, the Museum's Chief Curator. "Her versatility and fearlessness are astonishing. She has created so many powerful performances."

Known for the breadth of her work, Julianne Moore has appeared in comedies and dramas ranging from art-house hits to blockbusters for both film and television. Most recently, she starred in Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Don Jon and Kimberly Pierce's remake of the horror classic Carrie. For her acclaimed performance as Alaska Governor Sarah Palin Moore in the HBO original movie Game Change, Moore received Golden Globe, SAG, and Emmy Awards. Moore is the ninth person in Academy history to receive two acting Oscar nominations in the same year for her performances in Far From Heaven (Best Actress nomination) and The Hours (Best Supporting Actress nomination), after receiving many critic's awards and SAG and Golden Globe nominations for both.

Next year, Moore will appear with Jeff Bridges in the sweeping fantasy adventure The Seventh Son (Warner Bros), and with Liam Neeson in the action-thriller Non-Stop (Universal). She just wrapped production in David Cronenberg's Maps to the Stars, alongside Mia Wasikowska, Robert Pattinson, and John Cusack; and will be playing President Alma Coin in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay.
