(1982)
Directed by Steven Gorelick, Helena Norberg-Hodge, and John Page
Monday - December 3 - 7:00 p.m.
This documentary critiques globalization and argues that the global consumer-driven economy comes
at great societal cost. The film features a case study in the Ladakhi people, who live in a small region
of the western Himalayas, to illustrate the impact of western-style economic development on human
behavior. The Economics of Happiness presents examples of how the economics of the local can coun-
ter some of the world's problems and promote well-being. (Digital presentation. 67 min. Not Rated.)
Titus
(1999) Directed by Julie Taymor
Monday - November 26 - 7:00 p.m.
A film adaptation of Shakespeare's infamously bloody Titus Andronicus, Titus is a tragedy of revenge
and retaliation. The proud Roman general, Titus (Anthony Hopkins) returns from war with the
Goths victorious, but only at great personal cost. The captured and humiliated Queen of the Goths
(Jessica Lange) devotes herself to his ruin. Using techniques of theatrical spectacle, director Julie
Taymor makes beauty of mayhem in this provocative exploration of destructive behavior and its
ramifications. (35mm. 162 min. Rated R.)
