Double Feature: HARVEY, 1950, Universal, 104 min. Dir. Henry Koster. Easily the greatest movie ever made starring a 6-foot-3-inch invisible rabbit. Jimmy Stewart gives his own favorite performance as Elwood P. Dowd, a perfectly nice guy whose best pal nobody can see, leading his sister (Oscar winner Josephine Hull) to try to get him committed. A warm, wonderful and truly ageless comedy. Based on Mary Chase’s play (in which Stewart previously starred), and featuring Cecil Kellaway, Wallace Ford and, in his film debut, Jesse White. [35mm]
DONNIE DARKO, 2001, Exclusive Media, 113 min. Dir. Richard Kelly. October 2, 1988: just another ordinary day in teenage Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal)’s existence. Suddenly, an outrageous accident occurs, just missing killing Donnie. As Donnie begins to explore what it means to still be alive, and in short order to be in love, he uncovers secrets of the universe that give him the tempting power to alter time and destiny. With scenes shot at our very own Aero Theatre! [35mm]
