On October 3rd AFI took over the ArcLight and invited ten legends of Hollywood to screen some of their best work. It was a true celebration of film as each star introduced their film and then let the work speak for itself. The guest list was staggering and because each film started at the same time, everyone’s experiences were different.

George Lucas summed up the atmosphere:

“I cannot think of another event when movie makers and movie lovers have come together in such a spectacular fashion.”
