Best Movies About Politics (AM)
October 1 @ 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM
Free
Politics and the movies are a match made in heaven! Movies need compelling characters, suspenseful plots, unexpected twists, and a great conclusion. Politics provides all the above and then some! In this remarkable new presentation, Best Movies About Politics, I’ll present my admittedly idiosyncratic list of the best films ever made about American politics. Some are dramas, and some are comedies. Some are old classics, and some are very modern. Some are well-known, critically acclaimed Hollywood films, and others are amazing but obscure!
Best Movies About Politics
This fun, fascinating, and fast-moving presentation is one of my favorites, combining my love of great cinema with a lifelong fascination with elections. And where else will you find a list that plausibly contains Henry Fonda, Eddie Murphy, Kirk Douglas, George Clooney, and Jimmy Stewart? From directors Frank Capra and Preston Sturges to Rob Reiner and screenwriters Aaron Sorkin to Rod Serling, some of the most incredible talent in movie history have tackled the subject of elections in films that are entertaining, thought-provoking, and often unforgettable. We will look at clips from some of them and consider others!
Of course, we will leave time for discussion and your choices. Let’s see what everyone else chooses as the best movies about politics!
COST
I ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00. If you cannot afford it or feel my programs are not worth $5.00, email me, and I will waive your fee. You only have to request the waiver once; it will automatically cover you for all future programs. I am struggling but supporting a family, so I understand with compassion living on a tight budget!
