In partnership with the Mind Science Foundation, TPR invites you to Think Mind Science on Thursday, July 30.
In this talk, Dr. Jazlyn Nketia uses familiar pop culture examples—spanning film, sports, and public figures—to demonstrate how cognitive science can be used to anticipate behavior, power dynamics, and decision-making well before outcomes are apparent. She translates key concepts from cognitive science and psychology into practical frameworks that people already apply intuitively, making the science accessible and relatable rather than abstract.
Rather than analyzing pop culture for entertainment, the talk will reveal how everyday pattern recognition is rooted in well-established cognitive mechanisms. Audiences will leave with a new perspective for understanding individuals, institutions, and their own decision-making—without requiring any technical background.

General admission reservations are $15 and an upgraded ticket for $50 provides access to the Meet & Greet reception with the panelist. Enjoy charcuterie treats and wine while chatting with Dr. Nketia!

A Mobius-strip of frodis-inspired lunacy, “Head” was released in theaters a half-year after The Monkees’ television series ended, and some feel it was a deliberate attempt by the group to dismantle their pop-manufactured image. The surrealistic movie is more of a series of sketches than anything plot-driven, and was written by Jack Nicholson and Bob Rafelson, who would team up two years later with “Five Easy Pieces.”
Criterion describes it as “a kaleidoscopic satire that’s movie homage, media send-up, concert movie, and antiwar cry all at once.”
86 minutes, Rated G.

At the turn of the 20th century, a lonely stranger rides into town in the Pacific northwest, as rain pelts the landscape, turning unturned dirt into mud and lending a bleak air to this anti-Western. Warren Beatty stars as the hapless John McCabe, who goes into business with Mrs. Miller (Julie Christie) running a bordello in the still under-construction town of Presbyterian Church (priorities, people). Soon a big corporation is trying to move in, and McCabe must decide whether to move out or stand his ground. Featuring songs by Leonard Cohen.
121 minutes, Rated R.

Robert Duvall’s second film as a director also features one of his most complex characters, a Texas preacher named E.F. “Sonny” Dewey, whose temper and jealousy land him in hot water, and on the run after a fatal altercation with his estranged wife’s boyfriend. Re-branding himself as “The Apostle E.F.,” Duvall’s character lands in rural Louisiana where he charms a retired minister into starting a new church.
It’s a passionate performance, and Duvall was nominated for Best Actor. Although the bulk of the movie was shot in Louisiana, the opening scenes were filmed in Texas.
134 minutes, Rated PG-13.

As nervy as it is hilarious, this screwball masterpiece from Ernst Lubitsch stars Jack Benny and, in her final screen appearance, Carole Lombard as husband-and-wife thespians in Nazi-occupied Warsaw who become caught up in a dangerous spy plot. To Be or Not to Be is a Hollywood film of the boldest black humor, which went into production right before the U.S. entered World War II. Lubitsch manages to brilliantly balance political satire, romance, slapstick, and wartime suspense in a comic high-wire act that has never been equaled.
Werner Heymann was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Music Score of a Dramatic or Comedy Picture.
99 minutes, Not Rated.
