You’re invited to the party!

Nick and Nora Charles, with their wire-haired terrier Asta, manage to solve a mysterious crime, while barely interrupting their eternal cocktail party, and they do it with wit and elegance. 

Nick (William Powell) has just married beautiful and wealthy Nora (Myrna Loy) and happily “retired” as a private detective. However, Nora persuades Nick to help when he is told of a case involving a disappearance and stolen $50,000. Before long, murder occurs…but Nick and Nora are on the job, like everything they do, making it look like fun.

“The Thin Man”  plays on Thursday, February 13 at 7:00PM–all seats are $8.00.

Start the new year with a Hitchcock! Suspicion (1941)

Posted on by

Only Cary Grant could play Johnny, the main character in “Suspicion,” a charming rogue—or is he much, much more?

Johnny meets the shy, sheltered—and financially well-off–Lina (played by Joan Fontaine). The marriage of opposites follows soon after.

The story starts off light and charming, but as only Hitchcock can do, shades gradually and skillfully into tension, and riveting suspense.

Cary Grant became one of Hitchcock’s favorite leading men. And Joan Fontaine, at the age of 24, won the Best Actress Oscar for 1941 for her role in “Suspicion.”

“Suspicion”  plays on Thursday, Jan. 9 at 7:00–all seats are $8.00. Moviegoers are advised to get advance tickets at the box office or online, as shows may sell out.  Arriving early is a good idea, in order to choose your seat and also order delicious food and wine or beer.
