Avon Theater film historian, Skip Huston, has created another film screening & discussion series that should please all who have discovered his film classes for the past 12 years! “Americana at the Movies–Part 6” (FILM8843) is an “open-ended” series much like the “Overlooked Films” classes that Huston has presented every summer for the past nine years.

The class will meet Thursday nights, 6:30 – 9 pm., January 31 – March 21 at the Avon Theatre in Downtown Decatur. Register by calling 217-875-7211, Ext. 265. The class costs $80.

“Americana at the Movies–Part 6” will examine every aspect of the American experience. The films will include movies about our loves, fads, fashions and conflicts since our country was born and will include comedies, dramas, thrillers, and historical epics. Some of the movies screened and discussed will be well-known, and some will be rarities that are rarely seen! In keeping with the trend with Huston’s classes, the films to be shown are never announced beforehand.
