Continued from page 5
The Silver Screen Club was
formed to support the Northwest
Film Center, which was founded to
"encourage the study, appreciation
and utilization of the moving-image
arts, (and) foster their artistic and
professional excellence," according
to the Film Center's Web site.
Everyone is encouraged to enjoy
the plethora of cinematic showings.
General admission for each film is
$8, and a list of scheduled events
can be found at www.nwfilm.org.
"It's basically a great way to see a lot
of films that normally wouldn't make it
to Portland, and it's nice to bring inter
esting films and give Portland and
surrounding regions a taste of cinema
from foreign countries and cultures
that they may not otherwise be familiar
with," Phillipson said. "Come up forthe
weekend and dive into the whole thing.
You can see a lot of greatfilms in a
short amount of time."
