THE DYING OF THE LIGHT to Screen at the MFAH 8/14 & 8/18
Don't let the title fool you: the Museum and many venues around the globe maintain a commitment to screening films on 35mm reel-to-reel.
Director Peter Flynn's 2015 release, THE DYING OF THE LIGHT, explores the history and craft of motion-picture presentation through the stories of career projectionists. Their candid reflections on life in the booth reveal the mysteries of a world that has largely gone unnoticed. The result is a loving tribute to the art and romance of the movies-and to the unseen people who bring the light to our screens. See the trailer for the 94 minutes film below or at https://vimeo.com/15098687!
THE DYING OF THE LIGHT screens at 5 p.m. on Sunday, August 14; and 7 p.m. on Thursday, August 18 at the MFAH Law Building, 1001 Bissonnet. For information, please visit mfah.org/calendar/dying-light or the official website dyingofthelightfilm.com.
