Poynter: Peter Davis, Richard Pearce, and Lynzee Klingman, 50th Anniversary Screening & Discussion of HEARTS AND MINDS

Filmmakers in person! “One of the best documentaries ever made” (Desson Thomson), Hearts and Minds is an unflinching, Academy Award-winning examination of the Vietnam War and its vast human toll. “A cinematic essay of constant movement and provocation, a record of one man finding his way through the fog of war” (Scott Tobias). This screening will be followed by a discussion with director Peter Davis, producer/cinematographer Richard Pearce, and editor Lynzee Klingman. 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive, co-presented with the Beinecke, the Poynter Fellowship in Journalism, the Digital Humanities Lab, the Whitney Humanities Center, and the Yale Film and Media Studies Program.
