Feature Film: Ninotchka

Ninotchka Movie Still

Everyone loves a comedy, and just as many people are intrigued with crime. So, we’ve decided to give you some of both with a year-long film series featuring a funny movie one month and a lawbreaking thriller the next on Tuesdays at 7 p.m.

 

On May 14, watch Ninotchka (1939), featuring Greta Garbo and Melvyn Douglas. When Grand Duchess Swana sends Count Léon d'Algout to charm her diamonds away from the Soviet delegates who are selling them, he finds himself falling for their humorless superior Comrade Nina Ivanovna "Ninotchka" Yakushova.

 

Comedies and Crime: A Film Series plays on:

 

May 14 Ninotchka
June 11 The Godfather
July 9 Slap Shot
August 13 Zodiac
September 17 The Royal Tennenbaums
October 8 Kiss Me Deadly
November 12 The Cameraman
December 10 The Thin Man









 

 

This event is free and open to all.
