Educator Victor Messick will moderate this film series delving into the influence of the NYC- and Nyack- based realist artist Edward Hopper on film directors and cinematographers.  

In the Texas panhandle wheat fields on the eve of World War I, a woman is torn between two men, one her fellow field worker, the other a rich landowner. A late 19th/early 20th century depiction of homesteading life on America's high prairie, featuring a house from one of Hopper's more famous paintings.  An Oscar-winning classic by director Terence Malick. Starring young & handsome Richard Gere, Brooke Adams & Sam Shepard.  (1978) (93 min.)

A discussion will follow the film.  No registration required.
