What are you watching?
Explore the development of film culture in Bradford and Keighley with Friends of Bradford Art Galleries and Museums
Cinema used to be the most important form of both mass entertainment and mass artistic experimentation. Since then it has lost audience to television, streaming services and social media. But people still watch films in this new context.
Does it matter where we watch films, how we choose which films to watch or how we make sense of them? We all enjoy some films but do we know why? What do we learn from films? These and other questions together define ‘film culture’. This will be an open session with a chance to contribute and learn from others as well as finding out about the history of film culture locally.
Presented by Roy Stafford – a writer and lecturer based in Keighley.
