FILM

Celluloid Cities Screen SlackerCelluloid Cities: Symphonies and Solos - A CAMS film series. The Cinema and Media Studies wishes to contribute to the campus wide interest in the theme of the city by showing five films. Ranging from ultra-famous films (Chunking Express, excep-tionally shown in its 35 mm. splendor) to rare and hard-to-find little gems (Largo Viaje and Singapore Gaga); from Ruttmann’s mythical city symphony that initiated a whole genre to Linklater’s just as mythical tribute to Austin (and generation X), this Thursday evening film series wishes to reach all the cinephiles in the Wellesley College community and beyond, joining them in a common celebration of urban films.Thursday, April 26 2012, 6-9 pmCollins Cinema*Photo courtesy of Google Images
