Award Winning Filmmaker
Todd Solondz
FEBRUARY 14
With an acute awareness of the place his movies
hold in the larger film industry, independent film
Director Todd Solondz (Welcome to the Doll House,
Happiness) came to St. Francis College to screen
and talk about his latest work, Dark Horse.
“While I always have ideas of things that I think
would be very profitable, I never pursue them,”
offered Solondz who was recently honored at the
Deauville American Film Festival in France. “I prefer

hope there are others who will respond to the kind of
stories and characters that I like to dramatize.”
Who Should Be the Next Mayor of New York? Michael Powell, John Avlon, Maggie Haberman, Fred Siegel,
