Film Society<\/h2>
\n

The Johns Hopkins Film Society is an extracurricular group dedicated to providing a fun and enriching experience for all students interested in film. With weekly meetings and DVD screenings, as well as monthly larger film screenings, a film-themed annual journal, and a film festival that receives submissions from across the country and around the world, students are provided with numerous opportunities to get involved. Each semester, the Film Society puts on a student-run film series programmed by its members. Film series programmed in past years include \u201cDante\u2019s In-film-o,\u201d a series designed to trace out the circles of Dante\u2019s Hell with screenings from\u00a0Eastern Promises<\/em>\u00a0to\u00a0Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory;<\/em>\u00a0\u201cThe Freudian Slips,\u201d\u00a0a series of films selected to embody a different facet of Freud\u2019s psychoanalytic theory, with films ranging from\u00a0Psycho<\/em>\u00a0to\u00a0Mulholland Drive<\/em>; and series that highlighted various directors, producers, and actors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Film Society members hone skills in programming, advertising, budgeting, and projecting to put together\u00a0the annual Johns Hopkins Film Festival, a festival run entirely by students. The Johns Hopkins Film Festival is nationally known, and draws both feature-length and short films from all across the country and world. The festival usually receives close to 300 submissions, from which students select the films to show, and create a schedule of three full days of cinema.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
