SUMMARY:Amateur Movie Day
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate Amateur Movie Day on Friday March 13th 
 from 6:00-9:00pm! We'll be screening unique films selected from our 
 archival collections in the University of Toronto\, Robarts Theatre (RM 
 3-025)\, on the third floor of Robarts Library\, 130 St. George Street\, 
 Toronto ON.\n\nUnlike home movies\, amateur films were polished 
 non-professional short works created by skilled and creative filmmakers or 
 movie clubs\, and intended to be viewed outside the home. Produced outside 
 the commercial system\, they include dramas\, comedies\, travel and nature 
 films\, and portrayals of everyday life. They often experiment with the 
 film form and are too often remain hidden in histories. \n\nThe selected 
 films will be from our Dr. Perry E. Doolittle\, Mario Prizek\, Gordon 
 Sinclair\, and the Society of Canadian Cine Amateurs collections. Plus a 
 very special premiere of a newly acquired film titled\, "Thund'ring Hoofs" 
 [1943] by Bob Flynn and M.C. Moultrie. This western was made by workers of 
 a Toronto munitions factory during the Second World War. Not to be missed! 
 A talk by\, Christina Stewart\, Assistant Media Archivist will precede the 
 screening. The event is free\, but registration is required.
