About: The grand finale in our Deco film series with the Miami Beach Cinematheque is William Cameron Menzies’ 1936 sci-fi classic Things to Come, a film about a world war that spans 30 years. Adapted from H.G. Wells’ The Shape of Things to Come, the story centers around the citizens of Everytown as they struggle to survive war, famine, and disease before scientific progress heralds an age of salvation and growth. Join our friends at the Wolfsonian for a 4pm tour of Deco: Luxury to Mass Market before experiencing the Art Deco metropolis of Everytown in Things to Come at the Cinematheque at 5pm.
