In celebration of the late Donald Sutherland, you are invited to attend a free screening of one of his best films.
M*A*S*H | 1970 | DIRECTOR: Robert Altman | WITH: Donald Sutherland, Elliot Gould, Tom Skerritt, Sally Kellerman, Robert Duvall | RATED R for sexual content, nudity | RUNNING TIME: 1H 56M
The staff of a Korean War field hospital uses humor and hijinks to keep their sanity in the face of the horror of war.
Screens at 7:30 p.m. Saturday June 29. Admission is FREE but registration is required at link above.

“The performances have a lot to do with the movie’s success. Elliott Gould and Donald Sutherland are two genuinely funny actors; they don’t have to make themselves ridiculous to get a laugh. They’re funny because their humor comes so directly from their personalities. They underplay everything (and Sutherland and Gould trying to downstage each other could eventually lead to complete paralysis).
“Strangely enough, they’re convincing as surgeons. During operations, covered with blood and gore, they mutter their way through running commentaries that sound totally professional. Sawing and hacking away at a parade of bodies, they should be driving us away, but they don’t. We can take the unusually high gore-level in “MASH” because it is originally part of the movie’s logic. If the surgeons didn’t have to face the daily list of maimed and mutilated bodies, none of the rest of their lives would make any sense.” — Roger Ebert

CELEBRATING DONALD SUTHERLAND: "KLUTE" (1971)
2024-06-28 19:30 - 21:30 UTC
REGISTER FOR FREE TICKETS HERE
In celebration of the late Donald Sutherland, you are invited to attend a free screening of one of his best films.
KLUTE | 1971 | DIRECTOR: Alan J. Pakula | WITH: Jane Fonda, Donald Sutherland, Roy Scheider | RATED R for sexual content, nudity, brief violence, adult themes | RUNNING TIME: 1H 54M
A small-town detective searching for a missing man has only one lead: a connection with a New York prostitute.
Screens at 7:30 p.m. Friday June 28. Admission is FREE but registration is required at link above.

“The movie embodies, in the most rewarding way, the transformations and contradictions that defined American cinema at the dawn of one of its most creatively fertile eras. Klute is not, as Pakula feared it would be, “a character study in a melodrama” but rather a character study that uses the trappings of melodrama to deepen its portrait of the character it’s studying.
“The film undercuts every expectation it sets up: it’s a cop movie that isn’t about the cop; a modern western that almost never leaves the canyons, hideaways, and saloons of Manhattan; a whodunit that, with defiant indifference, gives away the “who” after forty minutes; and a thriller that, although menace seems to choke every frame, contains almost no violence at all. No wonder some critics were baffled.” — Mark Harris

CELEBRATING DONALD SUTHERLAND: "DON'T LOOK NOW" (1973)
2024-06-27 19:30 - 21:30 UTC
REGISTER FOR FREE TICKETS HERE
In celebration of the late Donald Sutherland, you are invited to attend a free screening of one of his best films.
DON’T LOOK NOW | 1973 | DIRECTOR: Nicolas Roeg | WITH: Donald Sutherland, Julie Christie, Hilary Mason | RATED R for sexual content, nudity, brief violence, gore, adult themes | RUNNING TIME: 1H 50M
A married couple grieving the recent death of their young daughter are in Venice when they encounter two elderly sisters, one of whom is psychic and brings a warning from beyond.
Screens at 7:30 p.m. Thursday June 27. Admission is FREE but registration is required at link above.

““Don’t Look Now,” based on a Daphne du Maurier short story, iss full of disturbing cuts and sinister portents, all driven by Roeg’s visionary skill as a cinematic manipulator of time and memory. No film has ever let you taste the grandeur and rot, or the vertiginous anxiety, that arises out of the ancient maze of Venice the way “Don’t Look Now” does.
“In 1973, the movie had the shock of the new, and in a way it’s never lost that. It was the cinema’s first modern gothic, the first tale of a ghost world that seemed to be unfolding in a place where such things were too corny to exist.
“Don’t Look Now” is about something more than scaring you (though it did that just fine, especially when a mysterious small figure in a red hood showed up); it is about a tear in the cosmic fabric. It is a prismatic poem of fear that makes it seem as if the nightmare is cracking open inside your head.” — Owen Gleiberman, Variety

Subsequent work includes “Dogfight” (1991), starring River Phoenix; the HBO drama “If These Walls Could Talk” (1996), an anthology film about abortion starring Demi Moore, Sissy Spacek and Cher; and episodes of multiple TV series including “Murder One,” “Third Watch” and “The Mind of the Married Man.”
