Visibility
Leave "Visible Everywhere" selected for this film to appear in your film guide
Select "Hidden from film guide" to hide this film from your film guide
Select "Hidden everywhere" to hide this film from your film guide and virtual watch page
Important note for virtual events: Selecting "Hidden everywhere" will not hide the virtual screening, rather, it will hide this specific film from the righthand list of films on a virtual watch page if there are multiple films in the screening. The film will still play in the virtual screening even if it is hidden. If you hide ALL films from a single virtual screening, it will cancel itself out -- you must have at least one non-hidden film in a virtual screening.
