7:00 PM - 8:30 PMIN PERSON ONLYJoin us to hear local film historian, Rick Winston, explain the complex history of Jews in the movie business: why many Jewish screenwriters found themselves at odds with Jewish studio bosses, how labor unrest of the 1930s led to the blacklist, how blacklisted writers and others survived during that time, and what brought the blacklist to an end- all illustrated with many photographs and movie stills. Dessert and coffee will be served.
