ADELAIDE CINÉMATHÈQUE CHRISTMAS PARTY


11 December

It’s the end of the 2008 Adelaide Cinémathèque season and time to celebrate with a night of fun and nostalgia. Settle in for a big night and enjoy an old fashioned movie experience complete with vintage trailers, cinema ads, newsreels, cartoons and comedy shorts plus a feature too, of course. As a special Christmas gift, members can even bring a guest along for free.

 

A CHRISTMAS STORY

 

7:30pm Thursday 11 December

A CHRISTMAS STORY (G)

Dir: Bob Clark
US 1983 93mins 16mm
 In this cheerfully warped slice of Americana, the only thing nine-year-old Ralphie wants for Christmas is a Red Ryder BB gun, despite all warnings that he’ll shoot his eye out. Based on the memoirs of celebrated storyteller Jean Shepherd, who also narrates, it has become an enduring holiday season favourite.

Preceded by classic adverts, trailers, newsreels and comedy shorts.
