Berkeley Artwork Museum and Pacific Movie Archive’s winter program gives a treasure chest of film gems, from well-known options comparable to John Ford’s tarnished Western “The Searchers” to Cheryl Dunye’s not often seen women-prison drama “Stranger Inside.” 

Our cinematic style buds are salivating already. Right here’s a glance: 

“G. W. Pabst: Selected Films 1925-38” (By Feb. 28): Bay Space followers’ ardour for silent movies is assured to pack theaters, so bounce on scoring tickets for the ten remaining movies on this sequence that includes Austrian actor-turned-director Georg Wilhelm Pabst, whose breakout directorial characteristic was 1925’s gritty, groundbreaking post-World Struggle I drama “The Joyless Street.” Set on a scrappy avenue in Vienna, it options Greta Garbo and Asta Nielsen as two ladies going through unsure futures who mingle with the wealthy, on the lookout for an excellent time. It screens at 7 p.m. on Dec. 20. Two different titles that struck my curiosity are the little seen “The Love of Jeanne Ney,” at 7 p.m. Dec. 12, Pabst’s 1927 adaptation of a well-liked novel by Russian writer Ilya Ehrenburg from that interval; and the daring 1929 showgirl triumph “Pandora’s Box” at 1:30 p.m. Jan. 19.
