Classic Movie Nights

It's a million dollars worth of adventure! Our Classic Movie Nights series sets sail with the swashbuckling Errol Flynn classic Captain Blood! Peter Blood, a wrongfully convicted Irish physician, is sentenced to slavery in the Caribbean after being accused of treason. But when he is purchased by the beautiful Arabella Bishop, Blood escapes captivity, takes command of a pirate ship, and sets out on a life of adventure on the high seas. Captain Blood is the film that transformed Errol Flynn into an international movie star, launching one of the great screen careers of Hollywood's Golden Age. Directed by Michael Curtiz (Casablanca, White Christmas), this rousing 1935 adventure is a landmark of the classic Hollywood swashbuckler. Sword fights, romance, pirates...it's got it all!  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! 

Our Classic Movie Nights series is entering the halls of Hill House with the terrifying 1963 version of The Haunting! Dr. John Markway assembles a small group of guests to investigate the notoriously haunted Hill House, a sprawling mansion with a dark history of death and tragedy. Among them is Eleanor Vance, a shy and emotionally fragile woman who soon finds herself increasingly convinced that the house has chosen her as its next victim. Directed by Robert Wise, The Haunting is widely regarded as one of the greatest haunted house films ever made, creating terror almost entirely through suggestion and atmosphere rather than explicit horror. With its disorienting camera work and unsettling sound design, the movie has survived as one of the most genuinely spooky movies ever made!

Our Classic Movie Nights series is getting real screwy as we present the Katharine Hepburn/Cary Grant comedy classic Bringing Up Baby! David Huxley, a mild-mannered paleontologist on the eve of marrying his longtime fiancée, has his carefully ordered life thrown into complete disarray when he crosses paths with the wildly unpredictable Susan Vance. After Susan mistakes him for a zoologist, the pair become entangled in a series of increasingly ridiculous mishaps involving a tame leopard named Baby. Starring Grant and Hepburn at their most effortlessly hilarious, Bringing Up Baby is one of the defining films of Hollywood's screwball comedy era. Howard Hawks' knack for balancing plates during the escalating absurdity (and of course the chemistry of the two legendary leads) make it a timeless comedy that must be seen on the big screen!

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!
