Grab your trapper keeper, your cool pencil toppers, and make sure to save a seat for your best friend because class is in session! Professor Spencer is here with a new podcast format where we discuss specific things about film history, filmmaking, or any other film topics that are in the syllabus. This week, we will discuss a topic that has come up many times on the podcast: The National Film Registry. This of the Library of Congress is home to MANY classic pieces of American Cinematic History, and has come up many times on the podcast (Star Wars, Pulp Fiction, etc). Today we will discuss what it actually is, how it came to be, and some fun pieces of info that you may or may not have known! So sit back, take notes, and if you have to use the restroom make sure you grab the hall pass.
