Event Details - Bay Film Series: She Said

“Streaming and lockdown have altered the landscape of what’s available for public showings. I’m happy to announce that movies are again available as we enter our ‘Race to the Oscars’ annual showcase,” says Nanci Love, Bay Film Series Coordinator and Instructor.

On January 26th, the Film Series will show She Said, a real-life journalistic thriller. Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan star as the two New York Times reporters who broke Hollywood’s Harvey Weinstein scandal that lead to the #Metoo movement. Movie Nation praises the film as “a thoroughly engrossing account of how one of the touchstone stories of our time came to light.” The film is favored as a Best Picture contender.

All Bay Film Series movies are shown in Bay College’s Besse Center Theater at 7 p.m. ET in Escanaba. Tickets are $5 for the public and are available at the Box Office or can be purchased online. K-Bay Students can purchase tickets at a reduced admission of $2. Tickets must be purchased in person to receive discount.

Women Talking is scheduled for April 13th, another film highly favored on Gold Derby for getting a Best Picture nomination.
