Campus Events activities
Campus Events will hold several events during ninth week,
starting Monday, March 5.
Tickets are now available for sneak previews of the movies
“Enemy at the Gates” on Tuesday, March 6 and “15
Minutes” on Wednesday, March 7. Both shows begin at 8 p.m.
Students can pick up free tickets at Kerckhoff 319. “Enemy at
the Gates” starts at 7:30 p.m. in Ackerman Grand Ballroom,
“15 Minutes” starts at 6 p.m. in the Freud
Playhouse.
“Enemy at the Gates” is based on the true story of
Vassili Zaitsev, a Russian sniper responsible for over 140 kills
during the Battle of Stalingrad. Zaitsev finds himself in a
show-down with his German army counterpart.
The movie is taken from William Craig’s 1973 book,
“Enemy at the Gates.” A live question and answer
session with the director Jean-Jacques Annaud (“7 Years in
Tibet”) will follow the screening.
“15 Minutes” follows a police detective who teams up
with a fire department investigator to uncover a murderer who
committed this crime to experience fame. As the investigation
continues, the case receives excessive coverage from the local
media, bringing the detectives in conflict with an abrasive talk
show host.
“Requiem for a Dream” will also play at Ackerman
Grand Ballroom on Thursday, March 8 at 7 p.m, followed by
“Pi” at 9:30 p.m. The movies will play again on Friday,
March 9, with “Pi” at 7 p.m. and “Requiem for a
Dream” at 9:30 p.m.
