The UCLA Small Screen/Big Screen series is a brilliant way of understanding some of our favorite movies more deeply by showing a narrative film and then its source material subject back-to-back. This time, they will start with Robert Redford’s 1994 film Quiz Show starring John Turturro and a pre-Voldemort Ralph Fiennes, telling the story of the real scandal that happened on the 1950s quiz show Twenty-One. The screening is followed by a showing of original episodes of Twenty-One (with the real commercials!).
