Film Program
MCM also offers a free annual film program to Elementary School, Middle School and High School students. The film program has two components: a series of film workshops, and a film competition.
The film workshops include guest speakers with experience in the filmmaking fields as well as volunteers that teach the kids about the trade, with one set of workshops for 4th - 6th graders, and another set for 7th - 12th gradrers.

Famous quotes containing the words film and/or program:
“The motion picture is like a picture of a lady in a half- piece bathing suit. If she wore a few more clothes, you might be intrigued. If she wore no clothes at all, you might be shocked. But the way it is, you are occupied with noticing that her knees are too bony and that her toenails are too large. The modern film tries too hard to be real. Its techniques of illusion are so perfect that it requires no contribution from the audience but a mouthful of popcorn.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“If we should swap a good library for a second-rate stump speech and not ask for boot, it would be thoroughly in tune with our hearts. For deep within each of us lies politics. It is our football, baseball, and tennis rolled into one. We enjoy it; we will hitch up and drive for miles in order to hear and applaud the vitriolic phrases of a candidate we have already reckoned we’ll vote against.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
