Filmmaker Oliver Stone will be in Little Rock September 20 at Central High School’s Roosevelt L. Thompson Auditorium for a partial screening of his new documentary “The Untold History of the United States,” followed by a moderated discussion and Q&A. 

Stone has made great movies (“Salvador”), unspeakably terrible movies (“World Trade Center,” “Savages”) and controversial movies (“JFK,” “Natural Born Killers,” everything else he’s ever touched), but whatever you think of him he’s kind of a towering figure, one of the last Hollywood directors capable of becoming a household name through sheer force of personality and iconoclastic sensibility. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the event is free and open to the public.
