Elizabethtown College continues Diversity Film Festival
‘The Defiant Ones,’ ‘address various forms of intolerance, exploration
The Diversity Film Festival, hosted by the Elizabethtown College Academic Advising Office, continues this winter. The classic film festival features movies that were among the first to deal with issues of race, gender, immigration and socio-economic stratification.
Free, open to the public and closed captioned, the films will be shown on select Monday evenings throughout the winter in Gibble Auditorium in the Masters Center for Science, Mathematics, and Engineering. Elizabethtown College faculty members will lead discussion groups to explore the key messages of each film.
The 1958 film “The Defiant Ones,” which follows two escaped prisoners – an African-American and a white racist from the deep American South – as they escape from prison shackled to one another, will be shown at 7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 6. The film includes discussion by Dr. Michael Swanson, associate professor of Theater and coordinator of Theater and Dance at Elizabethtown College.
