Statues Hardly Ever Smile
1971, English. Directed by Stan Lathan.
Edited by famed filmmaker Kathleen Collins, Statues Hardly Ever Smile follows a group of middle school children during a six-week project at the Brooklyn Museum, where they collectively discover and respond to the Egyptian collection.
