Inspired by DVD director commentaries, ARRAY’s “Scene on Screen” series sits filmmakers in front of live audiences as they guide audiences through key scenes from one of their signature films.

We’re thrilled to welcome acclaimed filmmaker Ed Zwick who will discuss key scenes of the epic historical drama, GLORY (1989) and share insight about craft and his storytelling approach.

About the Film:

Denzel Washington received Academy Award and Golden Globe wins for Best Supporting Actor for his iconic performance in GLORY. This film chronicles the true story of the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, one of the first African-American regiments to serve the Union Army during the American Civil War, as they fight injustices from both outside and within their own company.

This FREE program isn’t your typical ARRAY screening. To gain the most of your experience, ticket holders should watch the film at home BEFORE you arrive. Our featured filmmaker will be starting and stopping the film throughout to highlight special moments.

ABOUT THE FILMMAKER

Illinois-born Edward Zwick began directing and acting in high school and trained as an apprentice at the Academy Festival in Lake Forest. While studying literature at Harvard, he continued writing and directing for the theatre. He was awarded a Rockefeller Fellowship to study in Europe with some of the major innovative theatre companies. For his work on the television movie Special Bulletin (as director, producer, and co-writer), Zwick received two Emmy Awards. He and Marshall Herskovitz created The Bedford Falls Company for film and television projects. Together, they produced I AM SAM, as well as TRAFFIC – winner of two Golden Globes and four Academy Awards – directed by Steven Soderbergh. Zwick went on to direct the Academy Award winning films GLORY and LEGENDS OF THE FALL. Zwick has been honored with three Emmy Awards, the Humanitas Prize, the Writer’s Guild of America Award, two Peabody Awards, a Director’s Guild of America Award, and the Franklin J. Schaffner Alumni Award from the American Film Institute. He received an Academy Award as a producer of 1999’s Best Picture SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE. (via The Gordon Parks Foundation)
