Spring Film Series: Remembering Arthur

Thursday, April 26, at 8pm

Co-sponsored by The Bridge and the Virginia Film Society, host Richard Herskowitz will present a selection of Arthur Lipsett short films (including Very Nice, Very Nice), followed by Remembering Arthur, an intimate documentary portrait of a visionary collage filmmaker, his body of work and the troubled last years of his life.

George Lucas has said: “In terms of understanding the power of sound and picture relationships, there’s no one better than Arthur Lipsett.” The honesty and access of the film is a result of director Martin Lavut’s friendship with Lipsett and those of his inner circle, including National Film Board of Canada producers Colin Low and Donald Brittain.

This event is co-sponsored by the Virginia Film Society.
