How do historians enjoy movies made in or about the past? Learn how film shapes how we remember historical events and how the historian's craft can leap off the page and onto the silver screen! Join us for a short lecture, discussion, and screening of history on film. This month, the History Film Series screens a surprise film, titled to be announced on the day of the event. Be ready for 100 minutes of action, science fiction, and US machismo. Free and open to the university community. Refreshments will be available. Introduction and Q&A with Professor Scott Reynolds Nelson, Georgia Athletic Association Professor of History. Presented by the UGA Department of History, UGA Parents' Council, Willson Center for Humanities and Arts, and the History Graduate Student Association. Please contact Chris Choe (hcc03223@uga.edu) with any questions.
