Summer Film Series presented by Centenary Film Society & The University of First Presbyterian

In the Deep South, a serial-killing preacher hunts two young children who know the whereabouts of a stash of stolen money. Noir/Thriller, 1955, 92 min., NR.

This summer film series will examine some of the basic questions of what it means to be “human.”In a world of increasing and ever-changing technology, we humans need to re-visit some of the traditional questions that philosophy and religion and the arts have asked throughout history: What does it mean to be human, to be humane? What is the difference between the human and the non-human? What does it mean to live a good life? (to name but a few).

The screening will be held in Theater 1, RFC’s 124-seat capacity theater with an introduction from Jefferson Hendricks Professor of English and Film Studies at Centenary College, followed by a panel discussion lead by Hendricks.
