At Long Last Longworth, a week-long guest programming takeover of The Frida Cinema by author, critic, and podcaster Karina Longworth kicks off by celebrating 50 years of Peter Bogdanovich's seldom screened At Long Last Love, starring Burt Reynolds, Madeline Kahn, and Cybill Shepherd! Stick around after the screening for an in-person discussion with Karina Longworth herself!  The film follows four socialites that unexpectedly clash: heiress Brooke Carter runs into gambler Johnny Spanish at the race track while playboy Michael O. Pritchard nearly runs into stage star Kitty O'Kelly with his car. Backstage at Kitty's show, it turns out she and Brooke are old friends who attended public school together. The foursome do the town, accompanied by Brooke's companion Elizabeth, who throws herself at Michael's butler and chauffeur Rodney James.

We gave her a promt for four different films: one of her "all-timers" (Trouble In Paradise), her favorite flop (At Long Last Love), a movie she thinks needs to be re-examined (Arizona Dream), and a movie she loves from her childhood (The Wizard Of Oz). Before each screening, there will be an exclusive introduction pre-recorded by Ms Longworth, with the exception of At Long Last Love, which will have an in-person conversation after the screening!

Director: Emir Kusturica Run Time: 142 min. Release Year: 1993

Starring: Faye Dunaway, Jerry Lewis, Johnny Depp, Lili Taylor, Vincent Gallo

At Long Last Longworth continues with a very rare screening the 1993 film Arizona Dream!  Johnny Depp plays Axel Blackwell, a young man from New York City who is sent to Arizona to attend the wedding of his uncle Leo (Jerry Lewis), a car salesman who lives in the desert. While there, Axel finds himself tangled up in the eccentric lives of the people around him, including a passionate, somewhat unstable woman named Elaine (Faye Dunaway) and her stepdaughter, Grace (Lili Taylor), who has an unusual obsession with the idea of flying. Axel's journey becomes a surreal exploration of freedom, longing, and the bizarre connections that people form in their lives. Directed by Emir Kusturica and featuring an evocative soundtrack by Goran Bregović, the film strikes the perfect tone between a whimsical detachment and an almost-otherworldly feel. Set against the stark, colorful backdrop of the Arizona desert, it's a perfect choice for those who enjoy a mix of whimsical fantasy and deep, introspective character studies.  At Long Last Longworth is a week-long guest programming takeover by author, critic, podcaster, and certified Frida Cinema favorite Karina Longworth.

Director: Ernst Lubitsch Run Time: 83 min. Release Year: 1932

Starring: Charles Ruggles, Edward Everett Horton, Herbert Marshall, Kay Francis, Miriam Hopkins

At Long Last Longworth comes to an end with one of the great films from the 1930s, Ernst Lubitsch's Trouble In Paradise!  Widely considered one of Lubitsch's best works, Trouble In Paradise epitomizes the elegance and charm of pre-Code Hollywood with its sharp dialogue, playful innuendo, and sophisticated narrative. Fans of romance, comedy, heist capers, sparkling dialogue, clever plot twists, and a satirical look at the world of high society and criminal sophistication are bound to have a great time!  The story follows a thief named Gaston Monescu and a pickpocket named Lily that are partners in crime and love. Working for perfume company executive Mariette Colet, the two crooks decide to combine their criminal talents to rob their employer. Under the alias of Monsieur Laval, Gaston uses his position as Mariette's personal secretary to become closer to her. However, he takes things too far when he actually falls in love with Mariette, and has to choose between her and Lily.

We gave her a promt for four different films: one of her “all-timers” (Trouble In Paradise), her favorite flop (At Long Last Love), a movie she thinks needs to be re-examined (Arizona Dream), and a movie she loves from her childhood (The Wizard Of Oz).
