Influential Twin Cities critic, teacher and film enthusiast Al Milgrom leaves behind a powerful legacy after dying at age 98 on Sunday.
The founder of the Minneapolis St. Paul Film Society in 1962, Milgrom advocated for the formation of a film curriculum at the University of Minnesota where he went on to teach cinema and start the Rivertown Film Festival in Stillwater which became the now-acclaimed Minneapolis St. Paul International Film Festival.
