SULLIVAN'S TRAVELS (1941) w discussion FREE May 20, 2007

Free
No tickets or reservations required.



Written and directed by Preston Sturges

One of the great satires of Hollywood. A director of fluffy musicals (Joel McCrea) decides to make a social problem film about the down-trodden. He disguises himself as a hobo and hit the rails. Along the way he picks up "the girl" (Veronica Lake in her breakthrough role), learns about hardship and the value of entertainment, and in the end figures out that all roads lead to Hollywood.

Panel discussion will follow.
