Frame by Frame: Better at the Movies

Frame by Frame series – Four Weeks of Advanced Cinema Screenings with The Modern School of Film Tuesday, January 3, 10, 24 & 31 at 7 p.m. This screening series will be the Cary Theater’s first cinema studies class series. It was created with the cinephile in mind that wants to delve deeper in the art and craft of film.  The Modern School of Film’s founder, Robert Milazzo, leads an in-depth, active deconstruction and group-discussion of four films of substantial significance in film history. This format will allow for the instructor to stop the film at points and lead in depth discussions about the techniques being used in the film, as you watch it. Explore the depth and breadth of film as an art form and see films you love in a new way! Films in the Series January 3 – The Diving Bell and The Butterfly January 10 – Reservoir Dogs January 24 – Certified Copy January 31 – The Babadook All four classes: $35 / Cary Film Circle Members (all four classes): $25 Individual class: $10 / CFC Individual class: $8   Meet at Pharmacy Bottle & Beverage at 6pm for pre-show film discussion!  

 Some previous attendees of Frame by Frame events had this to say:

“Well-done education program which introduced me to a new film with thoughtful analysis.”         “Wow! Far surpassed my expectations.  A completely rewarding experience!
