Everything You Know About the Movies is Wrong!

Get rid of those winter blahs and join us for a timely webinar to embrace the beginning of Award Season! In this fun and informational program, we want to help people love the arts even more! We’ll tackle the biggest myths about movies ever told. Is the book always better than the movie? Are sequels and remakes always a cash grab? Were movies really better in the old days? With fun clips, careful analysis and fascinating behind-the-scenes stories, let’s confront these and many other classic myths believed about film.

Hosted by retired teacher and film expert, Steven Frenzel.
