A Live Presentation with Dwight Cleveland: Uncover the Hidden Stories of Cinema
Step into the world of vintage movie posters with renowned collector and author of “Cinema on Paper“, Dwight Cleveland. With nearly five decades of experience, Cleveland has built one of the most impressive and wide-ranging collections in the world. Now, he’s bringing his passion and stories to life in a dynamic 45-minute presentation followed by a lively Q&A right here at Gorton!
From the moment Cleveland takes the stage, he pulls you into the colorful history of international film poster art. He doesn’t just show the posters—he brings them to life. With each image, he shares fascinating, behind-the-scenes stories of how he tracked them down. One moment, he’s facing a tense interrogation at the Havana airport. The next, he’s bargaining with a mysterious collector in Tokyo or wading through a flooded basement in Minnesota. Each adventure adds drama and excitement to the beautiful visuals he presents.
