Virtual Screening Room

If She Grows Up Gay


The UCLA Film & Television Archive's Virtual Screening Room is an online home for curated programs, many drawn from the Archive’s extensive holdings of short and feature films, television shows and newsreels. Other programs are ticketed virtual cinema releases that provide support for Archive public programs while the Billy Wilder Theater remains closed. The Virtual Screening Room features live streaming events with special guests that will remain available online for later viewing by researchers, students and the general public. The Virtual Screening Room supports the Archive’s mission by offering access to unique materials that provide insight into our shared cultural history and the diverse communities involved in moving image production.
