SUMMARY:Film Shul: In The Beginning
DESCRIPTION:&nbsp\;\nA Zoom Interactive Presentation on Hollywood Movies an
 d The Jewish Experience Curated and Presented by Irv Slifkin and Laurence 
 Lerman\nIN THE BEGINNING...\n\nThe film industry was started primarily by 
 Jews who had emigrated from eastern Europe and settled in big cities like 
 New York and Chicago\, supporting their families by dealing in everything 
 from clothing to food to jewelry. Transfixed with the flourishing of nicke
 lodeons and storefront theaters in the early years of the 20th century\, i
 nterests for a number of them shifted to the entertainment business.&nbsp\
 ; Soon\, some made their way to Southern California\, where they opened th
 e large-scale motion picture studios that became Paramount\, MGM\, Warner 
 Brothers\, 20th Century Fox\, Columbia and Universal. Discover the fascina
 ting story of how men like Adolph Zukor\, Carl Laemmle\, Louis B. Mayer\, 
 Harry Cohn and others began Hollywood with their ambition\, ingenuity and 
 keen instincts. &nbsp\; &nbsp\;&nbsp\;\n\nClick here to register in advanc

 y 18\, 2024&nbsp\; &nbsp\;|&nbsp\; &nbsp\;8:30pm\n\nIt was clear from the 
 outset that we could only cover so many laugh-worthy ladies in our first e
 dition\, so here’s another collection of uproarious Jewish women for you
  to nibble on!&nbsp\; We’ve got it all covered here\, from movie stars l
 ike Oscar winners Goldie Hawn and Judy Holliday to TV favorites like Fran 
 Drescher and Golden Girls Bea Arthur and Estelle Getty. We also make room 
 for standup sisters Rita Rudner and Elayne Boosler to raunchy mirth makers
  like Sophie Tucker and Rusty Warren. All this and the titter-worthy talen
 ts of Sarah Jessica Parker\, Lainie Kazan and more! &nbsp\;\n\n\n\nTHOSE W
 ERE THE DAYS\nThursday\, February 22\, 2024&nbsp\; &nbsp\;|&nbsp\; &nbsp\;

 ;The Chosen\, Brighton Beach Memoirs&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;An American Tail\, we

 ack on the good old days of yesteryear. We also discuss their roots in the
  time-honored tradition of Jewish storytellers like Sholom Aleichem\, Chai
