Buffalo Film Seminars XX, Spring 2010
Screening schedule
Tuesdays 7:00 p.m. Market Arcade Theater
Each Tuesday night session begins promply at 7:00 p.m. The two of us introduce the film, screen it, take a brief break and then discuss it with the 45 UB students who are the core of these events and anyone else who wishes to join us. Students registered for the class are admitted free; everyone else is admitted for the price of an ordinary Market Arcade ticket (adults $8.50, students with ID $6.50, seniors $6; discount series tickets available). Goldenrod Handouts—eight to twelve-page notes on each film--are available in the lobby of the Market Arcade thirty minutes before each screening, and, the day before the screening, online at the Buffalo Film Seminars website: http://buffalofilmseminars.com. Free parking in the lighted and fenced M&T lot across the street from the theater's Washington Street entrance (pay the attendant $3, give the parking stub to one of the ticket sellers or someone at the concession stand and get the $3 back).The Main Street entrance of the theater is a few paces from Metro Rail's Theater station.
