The Jewish Influence on the British film industry and screening of The Man Who Got Carter, a documentary about the Jewish film producer Michael Klinger
This event, part of the Jewish Historical Society’s Jewish History Month, jointly hosted by JHSE, Watershed, UWE and DAVAR will occur at the Watershed. It will provide a unique insight into the potent influence of Jewish entrepreneurs and film-makers on the UK’s film industry. Prof. Andrew Spicer (UWE) will give an overview of how Jewish exhibitors, distributors and producers shaped the evolution of the British film industry from its beginning to the present. Film-maker and writer Tony Klinger will introduce the feature-length documentary, The Man Who Got Carter, about his father, Michael Klinger, a highly successful independent producer from 1960 to the early 1980s whose most famous film was Get Carter (1971). The documentary will be followed by a Q and A session.
