To be rescheduled: Classics of the Golden Screen
With Thomas Skouras
Thousands of movies have been produced since the introduction of sound in 1926, and many have been forgotten or neglected since then. Fortunately, this is not the case for the legendary films and shows to be screened in this class. Our series will offer a varied roster of Oscar winners and nominees that underscore why their appeal continues to the present day and why movie fans revisit these works and passionately recommend them to other film lovers.
Scheduled titles include:
It Happened One Night
The Philadelphia Story
Double Indemnity
Sunset Boulevard
In a Lonely Place
All About Eve
All That Heaven Allows
Patterns
Invasion of the Body Snatchers
Sweet Smell of Success
