Hollywood Blockbusters-Rescheduled

Rescheduled from February 21:

THE HOLLYWOOD BLOCKBUSTER: How Steven Spielberg & George Lucas Changed the Movies presented virtually by Brian Rose    

The Hollywood industry has depended on blockbusters, beginning with The Birth of a Nation continuing with epics such as Gone with the Wind, The Ten Commandments and The Sound of Music.  Beginning in 1974, two young filmmakers, Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, together changed the way the movie industry made movies.  Spielberg's Jaws and Lucas's Star Wars helped launch the careers of these most influential directors. 

Whether making films together like Indiana Jones or separately, E.T., Jurassic Park or The Empire Strikes Back, they introduced the "modern blockbuster."  Join Brian Rose for a look at how Spielberg and Lucas influenced the movie industry.
