Australian filmmaker visits Grady College

Australian filmmaker Paul Cox will visit the department of telecommunications in the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication from Jan. 26 to Feb. 2.
During the period, Cox will meet with classes in film production, will conduct an intensive script-writing/directing workshop in the departments of telecommunications and drama and theatre, and will host a festival of his films on campus.
He also will deliver a public lecture for the Center for Humanities and Arts on Jan. 30 at 4 p.m. in 265 Park Hall. His topic is “Art, Politics and Humanism in an Insane World.” On Jan. 29, he will speak in the rotunda at Brumby Hall. The lecture, called “Is Cinema Dead and If So, Who Killed It?” is intended for students but is open to the public as well.
Three of Cox’s films will be shown in the theater in the Tate Student Center during his visit. Innocence will be screened at 8 p.m. on Jan. 27. On Jan. 28, the Tate theater will show Man of Flowers at 4 p.m. and The Diaries of Vaslav Nijinsky at 8 p.m.
Following each screening, Cox will answer questions and discuss the film with members of the audience.
Cox has received numerous international awards including the Grand Prix of the Americas award at the Montreal World Film Festival in 2000.
