Classic Movie Musicals

This virtual watch-party on movie musicals is paired with an engaging video intro by Bill and, a week later, with an online discussion of the classic you’ve just seen.

Participants can stream the film at home at their convenience. The following Thursday, Rudman will host a live discussion via Zoom to discuss the film in real time! Both the introductions and discussion recordings are posted right here so you can come back and watch anytime.
