What TV sitcom
household would you rather hang out in? The drab cookie-cutter Brady Bunch home or the dry Leave It to Beaver house? Didn’t think
so. It would surely be the fun, eccentric Addams
Family home. The mid 1960s sitcom, The Addams
Family twisted the wholesome image of the typical American family into a
laugh riot of morbid satire. Returning filmmaker and film historian Glenn Andreiev returns to the Cinema
(online!) with a history and examination of Gomez, Morticia, and the ghoulish
Addams clan from their start in cartoon drawings by Charles Addams to the
recent film adaptations. There will also
be a look into the careers of Addams
Family cast members such as Jackie
Coogan, Carolyn Jones and more.
Did you know the Addams Family has a connection with the Marx Brothers? Did you know that Ted Cassidy, who played the gigantic butler,
Lurch, was also the hand model for “Thing”? Tune in to the Cinema and enjoy the
all-together creepy fun!
Glenn Andreiev is a Long Island based filmmaker and film historian. His
