Cinema Club – Rob Reiner: Turned to 11

We watch a movie then discuss its history and cultural relevance.

You do not need to have attended the other sessions to sign up.

Subtitled Turned to 11 we will watch Rob Reiner’s first film and then Kyle Marshall will lead a discussion on Reiner’s comedic filmmaking family, his start as an actor, and then eventually his legacy. Ultimately there will be an investigation into whether his importance was obvious from the start.

This event is sponsored by the Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers. CSIF was founded in 1978 by a collective of twelve filmmakers who saw the growing need for film resources and film equipment on the traditional Treaty 7 territory of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Iyarhe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), also known as Calgary, Alberta. Now over 40 years later we are an integral part of the growing cultural community in Calgary and are excited about new collaborations and opportunities.
