Chicago’s 90-year-old film treasure: On Chicago’s south side stands the oldest and longest-running college film society in the nation! snicolelane shares more about the hidden gem here 👇
said Doc was a society “populated by 19-year-olds who have already seen every film ever made,” but this isn’t to say Doc is snobby or exclusive. In fact, locals are welcome to volunteer and participate in programming, projecting, ticket sales, fireguard, show captain, etc. The film society is entirelyEach quarter, Doc gets new proposals from volunteers and the wider Chicago community, suggesting what the calendar should look like.
Poe says, “One of the things I’m most proud of at Doc is we’ve been able to grow to include more of our patrons in our programming model while also expanding the type of films we actually show. We almost never show the same film twice in four years, in an effort to diversify the typical undergraduate’s film taste, so this means we show about 1,000 different movies over four years. I don’t know any other cinema that does programming like ours.
Another unique addition to a Doc film is the occasional projection mishap. The cinema where Doc shows its films includes two Simplex 35mm projectors, an Eastman 25 16mm projector, and a HIGHlite 8000Dsx+. When screening celluloid, things can easily go wrong, and sometimes, in true Doc fashion, a film will be paused for a moment or two. The lights will turn on, the crowd will chat, and then before you know it, the projection picks up again.
