Movies Take Part in Film History (if you're in LA)

[Highway99]

It is worth it, if on the off chance a film fan in the LA area reads this and can take part in a once in a few life times opportunity.

On the 2nd and 3rd of December, The New Beverly Cinema will be showing the 1930 version of The Spoilers with Gary Cooper (later remade with John Wayne). This movie is so rare that it is possible no one still living today has seen it. The theater's owner Quentin Tarantino had to negotiate with the Library of Congress to show the film. If anyone in LA wants to check it out you could be part of a small group that ever gets to see this...Definitely worth going to see even if you don't like old westerns.

Thanks for the heads up. I think I’m going to go catch this!

Awesome! All 4 shows have tickets left.

Apparently there is a knockdown drag out fight scene where Cooper hurt himself so badly when filming that he never fully recovered...Wish I could see it, but glad someone will take the opportunity.

One last reminder...(3 of the 4 screenings still available)
