Bundle up for a journey through Chicago’s chilliest movie moments! Join film historian Kelli Marshall for a look at Chicago movie locations captured in snow and wintry weather. Featuring four Chicago-based films—Groundhog Day, The Breakfast Club, Child’s Play, and Judas and the Black Messiah—this hour-long program explores how winter weather can become part of the cinematic landscape.

Using original HD video filmed on location, Kelli takes you to some of Chicago’s “coolest” movie locations while sharing behind-the-scenes stories about the films and the city itself. Along the way, you'll learn about Chicago’s snowfall and discover how filmmakers create convincing movie snow, including insights from an Oscar-winning special effects artist with Chicago roots.

So grab a cup of cocoa and join us as we hit the streets of Chicago—no winter coat required!
