    An ambivalent history of Manifest Destiny told through shots of trains moving through the landscape. Benning's minimalist aesthetic RR produces a subtle political critique of American over-consumption and the tumultuous history of railroads, which changed the landscape of the American West. The director will be present to provide an introduction and facilitate a post-screening discussion.

     

    Presented by: Marilyn Murphy, Professor, Department of Art
    USA (2007), Director James Benning

    Sponsored by: Film Studies Program and the Office of the Dean of Students
