About the panel: Founded in 1919, United Artists (UA) is among the most influential movie studios of its time, housing an extensive cinema archive that includes classics such as “West Side Story”, “Carrie” and the “James Bond” franchise among many others. Through the years, UA’s iconic movies have served as the inspiration for generations of storytellers. Most recently, the hugely successful “A Star is Born” and Hulu series “Four Weddings and a Funeral” have proven the legacy of UA’s founding principle to put the artist first. In honor of its 100-year anniversary, this conversation will reunite special guests and industry veterans to look back on UA’s lasting and continuing impact on the motion-picture industry.
