Madison Film Forum

The Madison Film Forum was a graduate student film programming group on the University of Wisconsin--Madison campus in the late 1990s, started by Jonathan Walley, Lisa Dombrowski, Chris Sieving, and myself.  In the near future I will be "rebooting" the Forum with friends and colleagues as a means of promoting film culture in Madison, Wisconsin, and eventually programming events and screenings.  Check back here for updates.



Meanwhile, I will post occasional entries on IVFF which will feature news about screenings and events here in Maidson.  I have started a Madison Film Forum Flipboard magazine of curated articles, reviews, and videos related to screenings and events in and around Madison.  The Flipboard magazine will be updated each weekend (hopefully) with links provided on the IVFF Facebook page and Twitter feed.

It is not immediately obvious from the app design, but if you are an app user you can click on the comments button under each review to read my caption which provides basic local screening information. Unfortunately neither the comments button nor the captions appear on the web version of the magazine.
