Woodstock Vermont Film Series: California Typewriter

The Billings Farm & Museum is pleased to announce its first-ever Woodstock Vermont Summer Film Series. Five award-winning films will be screened from May – September. Description: California Typewriter A documentary portrait of artists, writers, and collectors who remain steadfastly loyal to the typewriter as a tool and muse, this intriguing and beautiful film features Tom Hanks, John Mayer, David McCullough, Sam Shepard, and others. It also movingly documents the struggles of California Typewriter, one of the last standing repair shops in America dedicated to keeping the aging machines clicking. In the process, the film delivers a thought-provoking meditation on the changing dynamic between humans and machines, as the digital age’s emphasis on speed and convenience redefines who’s serving whom, human or machine?
