January 10, 2016 @ 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
What does The Wizard Of Oz have in common with To Kill A Mockingbird? How are the Maltese Falcon and Saving Private Ryan connected?

Each week we will take a different decade and look at some of the best films not to be chosen as the Best Picture Of The Year. Below are some of the films we will be featuring:
1940 – 1949

Citizen Kane
The Maltese Falcon
Double Indemnity
The Bells Of St. Mary
