Program Description

Event Details

Have you ever wanted to join a book club for films?

Director's Cut is a monthly gathering and open discussion for film enthusiasts.

Led by experienced film editor and teacher Keith Fraase, we explore the works of a variety of influential filmmakers to better understand how a director’s art builds and evolves over the course of a career.

We'll choose one director per month and, throughout the course of the month, watch a few of that director's films. When we meet, we'll discuss what we watched, the filmmakers' careers, and the art of filmmaking.

This month, we'll be watching three films from director AGNÈS VARDA:

  • CLÉO FROM 5 TO 7 (1962)
  • VAGABOND (1985)
  • FACE PLACES (2017)

Keith is an experienced film editor who's worked on scripted feature films and multi-part documentaries, taught classes, and served as an expert guest on several film podcasts. Discussing film is one of his greatest joys, and he's hoping to meet others who share and want to develop this passion!

Free and open to all! No experience or registration required.

Drop in for one class or the whole series. This session meets from 7-8:30pm on the following Mondays: Jan. 12, Feb. 23, March 23, May 18, June 22.
