WEDNESDAY 21 SOLD OUT!
From the Margaret Mead Traveling Film Festival. Who are the dodos in the current debate over evolution versus intelligent design? Dr. Randy Olson, marine biologist turned documentary filmmaker, takes an informative, often hilarious and always potent look at the “Teach the Controversy” backdoor effort to introduce the theory of intelligent design to school children. He explores why the Intelligent Design movement has been accepted in many places and why the scientific community is losing ground. Cinematical.com: “A rare, evenhanded look at a hot-button issue, and it deserves to be widely seen.” Also showing: HUNGER ANGER LOVE PLAY by Ron Mortara (8 minutes). Post-film event: Local science teachers will discuss the film after the Wednesday 6:30 show. Sponsored by the Vermont Humanities Council. No rating, 83 minutes. Read more
