Movie Still from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? |
The history of a place comingles the place its residents know and the place that outsiders see. We documented what we see last summer in the town-wide photography project Midnight to Midnight: Northampton's Self-Portrait in 48 Hours. But what do they see? |
This program will explore how Northampton has been portrayed in six feature films: Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966), The Reincarnation of Peter Proud (1975), Malice (1992), In Dreams (1997), The Cider House Rules (1998) and Edge of Darkness (2010). |
Following excerpts from the films, local historian and former Northwestern District Attorney W. Michael Ryan will lead a discussion and show contemporary still images of the filming locations. |
The Fast Forward Film Series is free and open to the public. The screening will take place in Historic Northampton's newly enlarged 45-seat program space. |
