Forgotten Films : a film series

Forgotten Films is currently on summer vacation. Please check back soon for upcoming screenings.

Forgotten Films is a film series dedicated to showcasing some of the quirky cinematic gems in the UO Libraries 16-mm film collection.

This under-appreciated collection is an eclectic mix of vintage instructional films, feature films, UO-related films, and much, much more. In fact, there are almost 800 films in this collection. The film series will feature selections from the wide range of titles that span most of the 20th century.

Forgotten Films is free and everyone is welcome to attend.

All screenings will take place noon-1:00 pm in Proctor 41 in Knight Library on the University of Oregon campus. Click here for a map. [Subject to change. Check this website for updated location and time information.]
