DESCRIPTION:SAT. 3/17: PRELINGER’s LEARNING WITH THE LIGHTS OFF + THE FILLINGERS 
 +\nCelebrating the book-release of Learning with the Lights Off: 
 Educational Film in the United States, Rick Prelinger hosts a smörgåsbord 
 of exemplars from the golden age of educational filmmaking. Made for 
 American classrooms, these mid-century shorts are both artful and banal, 
 timely and dated, stimulating and campy. Preceded by the NorCal premiere of 
 the pithy Re-Presenting Prelinger, Rick’s PowerPoint highlights Jam 
 Handy, the acknowledged master of the genre. He also focuses on the 
 sinister scare tactics of Sid Davis in a 10-min. clip from Ken Smith’s 
 Sidvision, and with a 16mm excerpt of Davis’ Dangerous Strangers. In 
 fact, there’s over an hour of sublimely ridiculous celluloid, with Carol 
 Ballard’s Pigs, Daddy’s Girl, We Live in a Trailer, The Day I Died, a 
 Science in Action fragment, and Skip (AV Geeks) Elsheimer’s Vandalism 
 pick. PLUS Paul and Glenda Fillinger, here in person after a career in the 
 ed-film business, to share a pair of their extraordinary pieces. Free toast 
 and jam! $7.77. \n
