The Alexander Film Studio Project

Perhaps the only long running and certainly the largest motion picture sound stage studio outside of New York and Hollywood, the Alexander Film Company of Colorado Springs was active in film and television production for most of the twentieth century. This documentary film will present the first history of the nearly forgotten studio and its work, which began during the silent era in Spokane, Washington before it moved to Colorado in the early sound period. It will provide interviews with studio employees, archivists, historians, and discussion with municipal officials in an effort to promote the re-purposed remains of the studio as an historical site for the city and American cinema heritage.
