 shall Curry \n\n\nDir. Callie Crossley and James A. DeVinney. 1987. 57 min
 s. Narrated by Julian Bond. Created and Executive Produced by the late Hen
 ry Hampton\, Eyes on the Prize is the definitive documentary record of the
  civil rights era in America. Over two series and fourteen episodes\, Hamp
 ton and a purposefully diverse team of producers\, writers and directors t
 raced the country's long and brutal march toward equality and the fight to
  end decades of discrimination and segregation. In 'Bridge to Freedom: 196
 5'--the sixth and final episode of the first season of Eyes on the Prize\,
  and a nominee for the 1987 Academy Award for Best Documentary--a decade o
 f lessons learned within the Civil Rights movement is applied in a climact
 ic and bloody march from Selma to Montgomery\, Alabama. A major victory is
  won when the federal Voting Rights Bill passes\, but civil rights leaders
  know they have new challenges ahead. \n\n\nThe screening will be followed
  by a discussion among five of the series' creators\, on the occasion of E
 yes on the Prize being given the Cinema Eye Honors Legacy Award at the upc
 oming Cinema Eye Honors\, the awards program that celebrates excellence in
  artistry and craft in nonfiction filmmaking. The Legacy Award is given in
  recognition of a classic work of nonfiction filmmaking that continues to 
 inspire new generations of filmmakers and remains as relevant today as it 
 was when it was first broadcast in 1987. “It’s hard to overstate the impor
 tance of this series. It captured a crucial chapter of American history an
 d shared it with millions of viewers\, opening eyes and challenging hearts
 . And for a generation of documentary filmmakers\, its craft\, style\, jou
 rnalistic thoroughness\, and emotional power became the gold standard that
  we all still strive to reach.” Marshall Curry\, filmmaker and Cinema Eye 
 board co-chair. \n\n\n\n	Tickets: $15 ($11 seniors and students / $7 youth
