Do you have a favorite movie in which the time gets a bit out of joint? History gets a bit wibbly wobbly? The past gets repeated? The past gets repeated? The past gets repeated? Naro Video @ODUlibraries is seeking speakers to time travel with us for the 26-27 Naro Minded series:
PUNK TEMPORALITY: FUTURE PASTS AND SPECULATIVE HISTORIES. Share your academic expertise on the mathematics, physics, philosophy, ethics, et cetera (and we mean et cetera!) of temporal manipulations, disruption, displacements, or loops (try saying that three times fast)…
and we’ll share your movie pick with a community of cinephiles as part of our FREE Naro Minded series. Don’t have a particular movie in mind? That’s ok! Share your topic or rough idea with our curator at [email protected]. They’ll help you choose a film!
We’ll round out our #NAROVIDEOTURNS30 90s movie month on FRIDAY, AUGUST 28 @ 6PM @Slover with the original JUMANJI (1995), starring the incomparable Robin Williams and a phenomenal cast including Kirsten Dunst, David Alan Grier, Bonnie Hunt, Jonathan Hyde, and Bebe Neuwirth.
Plus, we’re thrilled to share that the talented comedienne and book lover Precious Williams will offer a performative reading of the 1981 children's picture book Jumanji by Chris Van Allsburg prior to the screening.
Thanks to the @NorfPublicLib Downtown Branch at @TheSloverVA for partnering with us for this event! Parking and directions : tinyurl.com/yc385v72
