Clark Art Institute Fellows will introduce their favorite flicks to the public this fall during the series "Fellows' Favorites Films" at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute. Clark
Fellows have chosen a film that they love, find special, or inspires them, and will give a five-minute talk preceding each screening. This free series, held on selected Thursdays at 7:30 pm in the
Clark's auditorium, begins October 20 with Jamón, Jamón (A Tale of Ham and Passion) (1992, 95 minutes) introduced by Clark Fellow Julien Chapuis.

Upcoming films in the series include In the Mood for Love (Fa yeung nin wa) (2000, 98 minutes) on November 3 introduced by Ting Chang, Videodrome (1983, 87 minutes) introduced by John Tagg on November

the understanding of the visual arts and their role in culture. The program encourages a critical commitment to research in the theory, history, and interpretation of works from all periods and
genres.
