Scarecrow Video Zeitgeist '24! - 2023: In Memoriam
Date & Time
Jan 27, 2024 02:00 PM PST
Description
A lecture-discussion hosted by film critic Robert Horton We dedicate a Zeitgeist session to the movie people who took their final bows in 2023, a distinguished roster that includes Harry Belafonte, William Friedkin, and Glenda Jackson. It was an especially tough year for movie composers (Burt Bacharach, Robbie Robertson, Ryuichi Sakamoto) and sex symbols who bloomed in the '60s (Ryan O'Neal, Raquel Welch, Stella Stevens). Along with the marquee names, we'll find time for a few obscure cinematic worthies. Oh, and Robert Blake, too. NOTE: THIS EVENT WILL BE RECORDED. The "Programmer-Historian in Residence" at Scarecrow Video, Robert Horton is a member of the National Society of Film Critics and host of the radio program "The Music and the Movies." His books include a critical study of Frankenstein. He has been a Fulbright Specialist, a Smithsonian Journeys speaker, and he is a member of the Humanities Washington Speakers Bureau for 2021-2025. This talk is part of our Silver Screeners program and is funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts.
