Pre-film seminar from film critic Jake Mulligan!
This seminar will look at the years in Lombard’s career leading up to MY MAN GODFREY to see how she became a star within the confines of the classic Hollywood system, how she contributed to the screwball comedy movement on a creative level, and how audiences perceived her persona—then and now.
About Jake Mulligan
