Capturing Bigfoot // Presented by the Oregon Historical Society

On October 20, 1967, Roger Patterson captured 59 seconds of film showing a creature walking through the Northern California woods—footage that became the most analyzed and debated in history. Fifty-nine years later, a reel of 16mm film discovered in a safe changes everything.  “Capturing Bigfoot” reveals the untold story behind the world’s greatest mystery, told for the first time by Patterson’s own son and the people who were there.  This is a story about family legacy, broken friendships, and belief itself.  Q&A participants:  Marq Evans (Director), Tamir Ardon (Producer), Clint Patterson (Son of Roger Patterson who shot the original 1967 PG Bigfoot film) This is a special event screening pre-film general release, which is scheduled for October 20th. Due to the sensitive nature of the never-before-seen footage in the film, all recording devices such as phones, meta glasses, etc. will be prohibited in the theater during the film’s showing. We appreciate your cooperation. Event link: https://portlandartmuseum.org/event/capturing-bigfoot/
