Genre Films: OLLI Spring 2021: Streaming Films for Class
Each week in class one film will receive a concentrated focus. Since we cannot watch the movie during class, it is suggested that you stream it before the day we discuss it in class. There is a separate charge for this service (as little as $21 for streaming all six films, one for each class meeting). Streaming the films will maximize your learning experience and enjoyment but is not a requirement for taking the course.
Below are links to streaming services for each week’s film:

For your information:
The Sonoma County Library offers two digital screening services, Kanopy and Hoopla, that are available for use to anyone with a Library card. You just need your Library card number and to provide a password to access thousands of films. You can stream up to 8 films per month and, yes, it is a free service! Here are the links to both websites: • Kanopy • Hoopla
A free app called “JustWatch” is available to be downloaded which can be used to provide information on sources for streaming movies. You can use JustWatch to do a search on any film title and you’ll be provided with links to stream the film for either rental or purchase. This app would be useful to access films referred to in class that you’d like to view or any movie of interest to you. Here’s the link to download the app: JustWatch
