Science Goes to the Movies
Science Goes to the Movies, hosted by veteran journalist Faith Salie, explores the ways in which movies, television, and pop culture inform—for better or worse—our understanding of the sciences.
This opening animation pokes fun at science's often unfair portrayal on screen. Here viewers chase around a filmstrip as it winds its way through common movie tropes, undermining the laws of physics along the way. Faith and her guest experts aim to correct these scientific wrongs.
