The Kansas City Public Library's annual "Off the Wall" summer film series is offering something different this year: a chance for the audience to pick the movies.
When it came time to select which films to screen, Nicolas Cage's movies were chosen. Each month, two of his films are offered in a "Cage Match," where the public decides the winner by online voting. This month it's “The Rock” vs. “Con Air.”
- Leslie Case, audio video specialist, Kansas City Public Library
- Mitch Brian, screenwriter, playwright and professor at University of Missouri - Kansas City
