Description

Following the screening of the entire series of “7 Up” films at Dutmers and the State Theatre, Michael Moore will join legendary director Michael Apted for a discussion about the creation of one of the most ambitious and inspiring uses of the film medium, and about a storied career that spans Hollywood blockbusters and intelligent dramas. Then, in part two, Moore sits down with director, actor, writer and all-around hilarious guy Paul Feig, who returns to his home state for a candid discussion on everything from his beloved series “Freaks and Geeks,” to the challenges of making smart comedy (he made "Bridesmaids" and "The Heat") in a dumbed-down world.

Scheduled to Appear: Michael Moore; Michael Apted, “56 Up;” Paul Feig, “The Heat.”
