And kicking off GODZILLA WEEKEND at the BCT with a pre-film introduction by Godzilla Historian and Scholar Beth Bredlau !


Presented by the IU East Asian Studies Center, Japan-America Society of Indiana, and Pillar Arts


The 1954 film Godzilla (a.k.a. Gojira) is the roaring granddaddy of all monster movies. It’s also a remarkably humane and melancholy drama, made in Japan at a time when the country was reeling from nuclear attack and H-bomb testing in the Pacific. Its rampaging radioactive beast, the poignant embodiment of an entire population’s fears, became a beloved international icon of destruction, spawning almost thirty sequels.


This is the first, original Japanese version of the Godzilla film. Toho Co., Ltd produced, Ishiro Honda directed.


Japanese w/ English Subtitles

2K DCP / B&W
