COURSE DESCRIPTION Some moments in movies never leave us: a snappy line of dialogue, a dance in the rain or by the Seine, a timeless love song, a great last line. In a three-part film discussion series featuring film clips and stills, documentary filmmaker and writer Sara Lukinson revisits some of our favorite movies and characters, setting them against the backdrop of their times, the people who dreamed them up, and the America they reflected—or asked us to imagine. Lukinson, a multiple Emmy Award winner, created more than 200 short biographical films for the Kennedy Center Honors. She teaches at NYU and the 92nd Street Y. SESSION INFORMATION Casablanca: The Movie, Hollywood, and America in the ’40s This beloved star-crossed love story, with lines and songs we know by heart, is set against a world at war and the poignancy of desperate refugees. Both the film and Hollywood were home to real- life exiles, many from the film world of Europe. Then after the war, America turned against them both.
