Join us Wednesday from 6:30 – 8 pm for our third Public Domain Theatre program! This month’s free movie is a 1955 film called The Man with the Golden Arm.
Frank Sinatra delivers a powerhouse performance in The Man with the Golden Arm, a gritty drama about a jazz drummer battling drug addiction while trying to rebuild his life. Directed by Otto Preminger, this film broke boundaries with its raw depiction of addiction—earning three Oscar nominations, including one for Sinatra. 🌟🎭
🎬 Fun fact: The movie was controversial for its time, challenging the Hollywood Production Code with its unflinching portrayal of taboo topics. Its boldness helped pave the way for greater creative freedom in cinema!
This event is free and light concessions will be available for purchase during the show. Please stick around after the movie for a discussion with host Dennis Everette.
