Sunday Scaries presents: American Movie

  • 325 E Main Street Norman, OK, 73069 United States (map)

Join your host Maura McAndrew for another installment of Sunday Scaries. This month we’ll be featuring the 1999 Mark Borchardt cult classic American Movie.

The film follows Mark Borchardt, a cinema-obsessed ne’er-do-well struggling to make his filmmaking dreams come true— with a little help from his best friend Mike, his eccentric Uncle Bill, and a community that wants to believe in him. From Reverse Shot: “American Movie is a tragicomic paean to perilously independent American cinema… it encapsulates the shaggy, aspirational optimism of a bygone filmmaking era, worthy of romantic remembrance”

Maura will start the evening with back story, production notes, and cultural context.
