“DISCOVERING FILM LOCATIONS: From The Little Rascals to Public Safety for Kids”
Multipurpose Room, Veteran’s Memorial Building, 7PM
Chris Bungo presents a unique program exploring many film locations where classic old-time films were shot in Culver City and Venice. Chris shows us film clips from years gone by and the exact location as it is today.
Examples will include film clips from The Little Rascals, Laurel and Hardy, and TV series from the 1980’s. This nostalgic trip will contrast the free-wheeling Little Rascals era with the safety-conscious attitudes of 1963 with a look at a public safety film.
We are also expecting a surprise guest who will relive her experience of being a child star.
This event is free to the public and we look forward to seeing you!
