OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Tales of the Grim Sleeper: Interview with Nick Broomfield
This Masterclass discusses the making of Tales of the Grim Sleeper (2014) HBO’s documentary by award winning documentary filmmaker Nick Broomfield and offers attendees the invaluable opportunity to network with one of the most highly regarded documentary filmmakers in the film industry. Film screening will be followed by Q&As with the Director. Tales of the Grim Sleeper investigates into the murders of serial killer Lonnie Franklin Jr. in Los Angeles. Lonnie Franklin Jr was arrested in July 2010 after a 25 year killing spree in which it is thought he could have killed over a 100 victims, potentially making him the most prolific serial killer in history. Significantly his arrest was not the product of painstaking detective work but completely accidental, the result of a computer DNA match that linked him to a possible 20 victims. Franklin now awaits trial. Tales of the Grim Sleeper looks into how it was possible for all this to happen. Meet Nick Broomfield at Pembroke College and ask questions about his work and his new film Tales of the Grim Sleeper!
