An Afternoon at the Movies @ Beaty In-Person
A weekly movie series showcasing a variety of films: classics, dramas, romantic comedies, action, and hidden gems.
This month, classic movies from the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's have been selected.
June 7 - The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956)
2h (120minutes). Thriller/Drama.
Ben McKenna (James Stewart), an American doctor, and his family stumble into the middle of an assassination plot while vacationing in Marrakech. When his son is kidnapped by the conspirators, McKenna must race against the clock to stop the murder and save his son's life. Stewart, as one might expect, gives a seamless performance as the average man thrown into exceptional circumstances. Doris Day brings a bit of levity and performs the only musical number to appear in a Hitchcock film
June 14 - The Apartment (1960)
2h5m (125 minutes). Romance/Comedy/History
An office worker loans his tiny New York City flat to his superiors for their secret romantic trysts and is subsequently promoted for maintaining silence about the affairs, but he runs into trouble when he gets involved with his callous boss' girlfriend.
