Welcome to the CAMLab Double Feature film screenings!

When we mention “Double Feature”, it conveys a dual resonance.

Firstly, it signifies the showcase of double masters: a cinematic masterpiece and a master-led discussion by a Harvard scholar. As audiences savor a classic film, they are also invited to engage in conversations exploring the artistic and cultural essence behind the cinema.

Secondly, beyond the main feature, we offer a recommendation of another film matching the evening’s theme. This presents a unique opportunity for audiences to make comparative viewings under the same thematic umbrella while appreciating the artistic nuances and creativity from different directors, actors, and cultural contexts.

This first Double Feature series will be held from October 26th to 28th, 2023, from Thursday to Saturday evenings, at the Lower Level Auditorium, 485 Broadway, Cambridge. We welcome all movie and culture enthusiasts to join us and experience this twin cinematic delight!
