We often think of the movies as entertainment, an escape from the pressures and crises of the world around us. Yet there is a group of films that have not only entertained audiences but also influenced society and even changed America. This unique multimedia event curated and presented live by Bard Film Professor Joseph Luzzi will discuss notable films that have profoundly impacted our nation’s culture, history, and politics. He will consider some of the most remarkable cinematic masterpieces ever made—while also introducing you to some less-known movies as well, including Casablanca, Rebel Without a Cause, The Graduate, The Godfather, Jaws, China Syndrome, Philadelphia, Barbie, and others.
