Chicago Film Society

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Chicago Film Society (CFS) is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting and preserving celluloid film and celluloid film culture. Widely known for historically informed screenings of 35mm, 70mm, 16mm and 8mm films,[1] the CFS also maintains a film archive and has collaborated on many film restorations.[2][3]

Influence

The Chicago Film Society plays an acknowledged role in Chicago's cultural life, with screenings frequently featured in prominent lists of highly recommended upcoming events.[4][5][6][7][8] Michael Phillips of the Chicago Tribune has described them as "invaluable"[9] and praised their "valiant, savvily curated" programming.[10] The Film Society was chosen by NewCity Film in 2017 to be among the "50 Chicago Screen Gems",[11] and co-founder Becca Hall's involvement with the Chicago Film Society was highlighted in the 2012 "People Issue" of the Chicago Reader.[12]

Projects

The Chicago Film Society maintains a large archive of Leader Lady images,[13] has collaborated on the restoration of the Robert Altman film "Corns-a-poppin",[14], cosponsors the annual Chicago Home Movie Day with the Chicago Film Archives and the Chicago Historical Society,[15] [16] and received multiple grants, including National Film Preservation Foundation grants in 2019,[17] 2020[18] and 2021[19] along with a multi-year Andy Warhol Foundation grant in 2022.[20]
