Summary:
Life in academia hasn’t turned out quite the way English professor Charlie Thurber (Luke Wilson) dreamed it would. He’s an inspiration to his students, but his notable lack of political skills has kept his career on a slow track. Now it looks like Charlie finally has a shot at tenure—until a Yale PhD. (Gretchen Mol) joins the small private college’s teaching staff and threatens to eclipse him. His well-meaning best friend (David Koechner), an anthropology professor specializing in Sasquatch sightings, launches an utterly misguided stealth campaign to promote Charlie’s cause. Meanwhile, Charlie’s sister is pressuring him to spend more time with their aging father, a former star professor who can’t hide his disappointment in Charlie’s stalled career. To complicate matters further, Charlie finds himself attracted to his new competitor. A very funny and uplifting look at a man who reaches a crossroads in his life, and learns he must draw the map himself, TENURE stars Luke Wilson (OLD SCHOOL), Gretchen Mol (3:10 TO YUMA) and David Koechner (TALLADEGA NIGHTS: THE LEGEND OF RICKY BOBBY).
**Couldn't find trailer - seems like movie is still pretty early, but has big star Luke Wilson.

Title: HORROR FILM: TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE
Synopsis:Director Tobe Hooper will introduce the screening.
One of the best American horror films from the 1970s and certainly one of the scariest movies ever made. The unknown actors and real-life locations burn themselves into your memory, assuming a nightmarishly twisted reality that lingers long after you’ve seen the film. After hearing of a cemetery desecration, Marilyn Burns and friends go on a jaunt in the broiling Texas countryside to make sure her grandparents’ graves are okay, only to become stranded at the rural home of a family of inbred cannibals. Director Tobe Hooper expertly escalates the horror until you can’t stand it anymore…then goes one step further. With Gunnar Hansen, Ed Neal.

Title: MENTAL HYGIENE SHORT FILMS
Synopsis:
Presented by Archivist and Historian Rick Prelinger.
For the quarter-century following World War II, a special kind of classroom film received wide circulation. These "mental hygiene" films thrived in a confused and nervous America. The rebellious behavior of young people challenging the social norms struck fear into the hearts of parents and educators, who saw dark futures for teens who broke the rules and refused to fit in with society. These concerned adults embraced the metal hygiene film as a new means of delivering social guidance. The creators of the films took their cues from the wildly successful training and propaganda films of the World War II era. They used the same shock and scare techniques to warn teenagers about substance abuse, venereal disease, juvenile delinquency and the awful fate of kids who drive too fast on prom night.
