Presentations by five faculty members from the State University of New York at Fredonia will be held in a “Fireside with Fredonia Faculty,” a unique five-part lecture series at Patterson Library in Westfield on the fourth Tuesday of each month.
“Public libraries, in general, are about discourse, conversation and sharing knowledge, and SUNY Fredonia is a wonderful regional resource that we have,” explained library director Megan Hegna. She developed the series so the library can provide opportunities for area residents to interact with people who are scholars in their respective fields of study.
Professor Roslin Smith will help attendees discover how to “read a film” by examining a plethora of basic shots that are the filmmaking building blocks. Clips from movies, such as “The Great Escape,” “Cool Hand Luke” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” will be examined and discussed in her talk on March 28 at 5 p.m.
