Presented as part of Scarecrow Academy: The Art in Sci-Fi Part 2: Science Fiction and the Director

The director of Get Out swings big with his UFO extravaganza, in which Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer watch the skies to get photographic evidence of the imminent invasion, with a dollop of Hollywood satire thrown in.

Scarecrow Academy presents the second part of our in-depth look at how some great directors tackled science fiction. The Art in Sci-Fi Part 2: Science Fiction and the Director continues with its fall semester, an eight-week online discussion series in which we'll analyze directing methods in detail, and define what makes great style in this rich, complex genre.

Discussions are led by National Society of Film Critics member Robert Horton, author of the Seasoned Ticket column at the Scarecrow blog and Scarecrow's "Historian-Programmer in Residence." The Zoom sessions are free and open to all; there's no homework, but we ask that you register online in advance.  Visit bit.ly/scarecrowacademy to learn where to view the films and see other events in the series.
