A trio of distinctly different film experience can be had in Seattle this weekend outside of the normal blockbusters and indies new to theaters. Perhaps one or all are right for you?
300 : Zack Snyder’s enormously popular adaptation of Frank Miller’s comic book series has a pair of midnight showings at Landmark’s Egyptian on Friday and Saturday. Whether or not people will show up in togas may be up in the air, lots of bloody action and people shouting about Sparta will not be, those are an absolute given.
You Can’t Take It With You : Frank Capra’s famous screwball comedy has a one week run starting tomorrow at the Grand Illusion Cinema. The 1938 Jimmy Stewart led picture is the old standard what happens when a couple’s families finally meet. Though not as beloved as Capra and Stewart’s best known collaboration, It’s a Wonderful Life, it did still manage to snag two Oscars, including Best Picture.
The Wild Child : Francois Trauffaut’s The Wild Child is the telling of the true story of a boy found living in the forest, with no history of language, reading, writing or the like. After his discovery, he is taught to live a human life by a local doctor. A new 35mm print will be playing at the SIFF Cinema for the next week.
