Movies That Ape Other Movies
March 6 - March 31
Honnold/Mudd Library
King Kong, Planet of the Apes, Mighty Joe Young - what do these movies have in common? Apes, yes, but each has a remake (or remakes) that has “aped” an earlier version. This exhibit showcases not only specimens of simian cinema but remakes of all species, including musicals, comedies, science fiction, and horror.
This exhibit also features an exhibit of “Staff Picks,” films our library staff members find particularly enjoyable.
