Hamilton for the Holidays (07/13/2020)

And we’re back! After a delay due to relocating and a holiday break, we’re ready to talk about Hamilton. The film about Alexander Hamilton. And there’s a million things we haven’t yet said about it, but just you wait, just you wait. Also, we begin the start of our Yearly Film Series with a look back at some of the most memorable films of 1980. We hope you enjoy it!
