Double Feature: 80th Anniversary! DESIGN FOR LIVING, 1933, Universal, 91 min. Playwright Tom Chambers (Fredric March) and painter George Curtis (Gary Cooper) share an apartment in Paris and both fall for lovely interior designer Gilda Farrell (Miriam Hopkins). Gilda can't make up her mind which man she loves, so she concocts a scheme for the three of them to live together platonically. Of course, it's not long before the two men are figuratively clawing at each other’s throats in this pre-Code delight from director Ernst Lubitsch and screenwriter Ben Hecht, based on Noël Coward’s play. {35mm}

Leval,” Gaston must choose between the two beautiful women in his life. {35mm} Special ticket pricing: $5 for seniors!
