Finding great movies for families
FADE IN: EXT. BYU CAMPUS, JOSEPH F. SMITH BUILDING - DAY
It is late afternoon in Provo, Utah. Hundreds of people are scurrying, trying to find their classes during BYU's Campus Education Week — including a class titled "Great Cinema for Families."
INT. SMITH BUILDING ROOM B092 - DAY
At the front of a theater-like lecture hall, DENNIS J. PACKARD is working with his assistant for the class, LIAM BROWN, who is trying to get the projection system to work. Dennis is a professor of philosophy at BYU. He looks at his watch. It's time. He walks to the front center of the room. Liam continues working on the projection system computer.
