On the Dial | The New Hollywood
The Wexner Cener for the Arts is the premier resource and advocate for the arts in Columbus, if not all of Ohio (and the midwest). We are honored to have screened both of our films, I'm Not Patrick and The Removals, in their space. The Wex also hosted film programming during the inaugural Flyover Fest this past May. If you can't tell, we love them. This summer, their film series is called The New Hollywood: Deep Cuts 1967 - 78. Totally worth checking out. Take it from the horse's mouth:
"Our 2017 summer series shines a spotlight on rarely screened gems from one of the most vibrant eras in American cinema. Roughly measured between the fall of the studio system in the mid-1960s and the blockbuster mentality that followed Jaws and Star Wars in the early 1980s, the New Hollywood period was distinguished, in part, by an unusual measure of creative freedom given to filmmakers. While it witnessed the creation of Easy Rider, The Godfather, Chinatown, and Taxi Driver, many other impressive films were produced in this rich vein of American classics, including these 16 underappreciated 'deep cuts' featuring some of our best-known directors and actors. Most films screen in 35mm."
