401 Film Series

The 401 Film Series, or Four-Oh-One, or simply the Film Series, is an autonomous democratic collective of cinephiles that seeks to promote the universal and enduring qualities of film. We are unified by a few basic tenets: that all films are worthwhile, that film is the apotheosis of art, and that with friendship every movie is a blockbuster.
