SUBJECT: SEXISM | CINEMA SERIES PRESENTS Kissing Jessica Stein

This installment of the Sexism | Cinema series will focus on Kissing Jessica Stein, a 2001 romantic comedy about the fluidity of sexual identity and desire.

After the screening, discussion will be led by Dr. Emily Skidmore from the Department of History.

Admission is $5 for everyone and can be purchased at the Alamo prior to the film or in advance online at https://drafthouse.com/lubbock/show/sexismcinema-kissing-jessica-stein

We encourage all members of the TTU and Lubbock community to attend.


Fifty plus years ago, the term “sexism” was coined. In light of this historical marker, Alamo Drafthouse and TTU invite you to a film series which considers how sexism is embedded, endorsed, and/or challenged in the cinema. How far have we come? How far do we have to go? We have selected films with female protagonists to view and discuss at Alamo Drafthouse, Lubbock. The films will be followed by a 30 minute discussion led by TTU faculty members and expert guest speakers. Mark your calendars now!


Thank you, organizers
Michael Borshuk, Don Lavigne, Elizabeth Sharp, Jessica Smith, Dana Weiser, & Allison Whitney
