The second movie in the three-film series, "Shattered Glass," will be screened Thursday, April 11 at 7 p.m. The 2003 film tells the true story of a journalist who falls from grace when it is discovered that he fabricated more than half the stories he penned for The New Republic.
The 2017 Oscar-nominated film "The Post," starring Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks, concludes the series. "The Post" tells the story of Washington Post publisher Katharine Graham and editor Ben Bradlee as they race to expose a massive coverup of government secrets during the Nixon Administration.
