Date Night with the Academy
(NR) USA – 2 hr 6 min
1938 · d. Frank Capra
Starring Jean Arthur, James Stewart, Lionel Barrymore
Tony (James Stewart) and Alice (Jean Arthur) are mad about each other, but chaos ensues when his family of snooty bankers meets her clan of nutty freethinkers. Awarded statues for Best Picture and Director, Frank Capra’s zany love story brings non-stop laughs—plus sharp commentary on class, country, and the meaning of happiness.
This screening will be presented in conjunction with a Cinema Classics Seminar, taught by Ray Saraceni, Ph.D.
Seating for screening-only attendees will begin at 7:00 pm. Just want to see the film? Purchase your tickets from this page.
