SERIES

Southern Crime This month’s Summer Film Series spotlights Southern crime.

We will feature showings each Saturday in June in Theatre Two. Our movie lineup explores the evolution of the justice system, as well as the stereotypes that are consistantly represented in dramatizing the South—from characters we love and admire to characters who expose the injustices of the system. See you Friday!
