Our Classic Movie Nights series is closes out the year with the beloved Ernst Lubitsch romantic classic The Shop Around the Corner!

Alfred Kralik and Klara Novak are co-workers at a small leather goods shop in Budapest who can barely stand each other. What neither knows is that they have secretly fallen in love as anonymous pen pals, pouring their hearts out in letters to one another. As their relationship blossoms on paper, their prickly day-to-day rivalry becomes increasingly complicated by the realization that love may be hiding in the most unexpected place.

Starring James Stewart and Margaret Sullavan, The Shop Around the Corner is one of Hollywood’s most enduring romantic comedies, balancing Lubitsch’s signature wit and sophistication with genuine warmth and tenderness. Its clever mistaken-identity premise and beautifully drawn characters have made it a lasting classic. 

Please make sure to get to this showtime early, as our beloved Marketing Director, Bekah, will be doing a pre-screening presentation on the film!
