THE EXPERIENCE

Join us for a 40th anniversary screening of Sherman’s March, newly restored in 4K. 

“Completely eye-opening for me, and for so many of us who make stories for a living.” – Ira Glass

“One of the best documentaries and one of the best comedies ever made.” – Patton Oswalt

ON SCREEN: Sherman’s March

1985. Directed by Ross McElwee. Runtime: 2 hours 38 minutes. 

Armed with a 16mm camera and a grant to make a documentary about the lingering aftermath of William Tecumseh Sherman’s 1864 march to the sea, Ross McElwee gets sidetracked. After his girlfriend breaks up with him, Ross shifts his attention from the historical to the personal, to the battlefield of modern love, and embarks on a sociological chronicle that documents the courting rites and rituals of the New South. A generous and humanistic portrait of several remarkable women that Ross meets along the way, Sherman’s March sketches its characters with novelistic sensitivity: Pat, an aspiring actress with a yen for Burt Reynolds; Claudia, a roller-skating interior designer; Jackie, the activist whose anti-nuclear advocacy dovetails with Ross’s deepest fears; and above all, Charleen Swansea, Ross’s mentor and a one-woman Greek chorus of unsolicited romantic counsel. A landmark of first-person filmmaking that presaged everything from Michael Moore to reality TV, Sherman’s March is now available in a new 4K restoration.
