Annual 35mm Film Festival from April 25th to 27th. Join us for this three-day event that surveys a variety of titles from cult classics to Hollywood staples and celebrates watching films on film. Funding from the Vesta Fund.
Schedule:
7:00 p.m: My Favorite Wife
With a story by Leo McCarey, Irene Dunne and Cary Grant reunite following their successful pairing in The Awful Truth for this romantic screwball comedy. Dunne plays a woman lost at sea for seven years, who unexpectedly returns home on the day of her husband's wedding. Grant is delightful as the husband tasked with delivering the unfortunate news to his new bride. Full of crazy antics and quick zingers, seeing this charming comedy from Hollywood’s Golden Age in a packed house is a true treat.
9:45 p.m: Faster, Pussycat. Kill. Kill.
In this iconic cult classic from pulp filmmaker Russ Meyer, three homicidal go-go dancers wreak havoc on unsuspecting strangers in the California desert. Provocative, violent, and celebrated for its theme of bad-girl empowerment, this queen of all exploitation flicks inspired a whole generation of auteurs including Quentin Tarantino and the Pope of Trash himself, John Waters, who once declared 'Faster, Pussycat. Kill .Kill. is, beyond a doubt, the best movie ever made. It is possibly better than any film that will be made in the future.'
