ArtStart Presents…
Great Movies of the Great War
This year marks the 100th anniversary of America’s entry into World War I, the worst apocalypse the world has ever known. To help remember The Forgotten War, ArtStart will host a fall film series showing movie masterpieces of World War I from some of the most celebrated directors and artists of the 20th Century. These films lack the graphic violence of modern movies but are all the more powerful because of it. Instead, they focus on the human toll of the conflict, both physical and spiritual, by looking at the war from the soldier’s point of view. These films will take you back to this forgotten time, to what the world thought was The War to End All Wars, and awaken you to the realities of modern warfare.
