Presented in partnership with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences: Free Screening! Pristine Archival Print! 30th Anniversary! AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN, 1982, Paramount, 124 min. Dir. Taylor Hackford. Designated by the AFI as one of the greatest love stories in the history of American cinema, this six-time Oscar-nominated romantic powerhouse follows the journey of a young naval student (Richard Gere) as he struggles to balance the rigors of flight training with a developing attraction to a young factory worker (Debra Winger). “AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN takes chances, takes the time to know and develop its characters, and by the time this movie's wonderful last scene comes along, we know exactly what's happening, and why, and it makes us very happy.” - Roger Ebert. [35mm] Introduction by Academy Film Archive preservationist Heather Linville, who oversaw the creation of the new print.
