All That Jazz (1979) May 8, 2008

The final evening of Cinema Supper Club: A Cultural Kaleidoscope at the Legion of Honor on May 8 presents a screening of the flashy and revealing musical All that Jazz (1979). Don’t miss your last chance to escape the crowds in an after-hours visit to Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer’s Life, 1990–2005. The film series comes to a close with Bob Fosse’s autobiographical musical that celebrates the raunchy underbelly of show business. The Oscar-winning film details the sordid life of Joe Gideon (Roy Schneider), a womanizing, drug-using dancer. On Thursday evenings, the Legion Café serves an expanded menu of bistro favorites, and the special exhibition and Museum Store stay open until 9 pm.

Look for the return of Cinema Supper Club to the Legion this summer with a new series that presents movies filmed in San Francisco and after-hours access to the highly-anticipated summer exhibition, Women Impressionists: Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, Eva Gonzalès, Marie Bracquemond. The series premiere on July 10 honors the 50th anniversary of Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo. You won’t want to miss this special presentation of Hitchcock’s masterpiece at the Legion, one of the sites featured in the film. The complete film schedule will soon be announced at www.legionofhonor.org.
