For the first time ever, students of the L. Jeffrey Selznick School of Film Preservation are curating a series at the Dryden! Based on an exercise in class, the students have been tasked with choosing a film based on the theme “Lose Yourself,” observe the steps to obtain a print and clear rights, write the text for the screening, provide an introduction for the film, and participate in a post-screening discussion afterwards. In final roundtable related to the series, five students (Andrew Bacon, Ha Nguyen, Casey August, Karina Longworth, and Marcus Leese) will join Curator of Film Exhibitions Jared Case on stage to talk about their films, how they made their decision, the process of obtaining the film, and their ten-month experience at the Selznick School.
This program is free to all!
