SUMMARY:"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" Still Sizzles After All These Years
DESCRIPTION:Every month\, Coronado Island Film Festival (CIFF) treats the town to a classic movie at the gloriously restored 1947 Village Theatre at 820 Orange Avenue. You may have seen these films a zillion times on TV\, but to see them the way they were meant to be seen –  larger than life on the big screen – is a whole new experience! \nJoin CIFF on Wednesday\, July 31\, for the 1958 film adaption of the Tennessee Williams 1955 Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway play\, “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.” Feast your eyes on two of the most gorgeous icons in cinematic history\, Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman\, who star as Maggie the Cat and her alcoholic husband Brick Pollitt. Burl Ives\, reprising his role from the play\, also shines as the bombastic family patriarch\, Big Daddy Pollitt. Doors open at 5 p.m. for complimentary adult beverages\, followed at 5:30 by a vintage cartoon and the feature presentation. Tickets are $15 and are on sale now at coronadofilmfest.com. \nCreating a sense of claustrophobia and tension\, while adding to the film’s Southern personality\, the story is set in the confines of the family mansion and takes place over the course of one day in the life of the wealthy southern Pollitt family. The family\, in all its glorious dysfunction\, is gathered under one roof to celebrate Big Daddy’s 65th birthday. The film also stars  Jack Carson and Judith Anderson\, along with an impressive supporting cast. This movie is a Master Class in ensemble acting\, worth watching closely for that reason alone. \nAlthough Tennessee Williams was disappointed in the changes to his original play\, necessary due the the censorship of the time\, the film nonetheless holds up brilliantly as a thought-provoking study of the complexities of the human relationship. It was well-received critically and at the box office\, and was nominated for six Academy Awards\, including Best Picture\, Best Actor (Paul Newman)\, Best Actress (Elizabeth Taylor)\, Best Director (Richard Brooks)\, Best Writing (Richard Brooks and James Poe)\, and Best Cinematography (William Daniels). It was MGM’s most successful release of 1958\, but “Gigi” swept the 1959 Oscars with a record-breaking nine wins! \nNext month\, celebrate America’s love of baseball with the 1984 heartwarmer\, “The Natural\,” starring Robert Redford\, on Aug. 28. Tickets are available now. And – YES! – now is the time to get your badges for CIFF 2024\, Wed. Nov. 6 – Sun. Nov. 10.

Humble fisherman João (International star Jean Reno) has turned away from the world in the wake of tragedy.

To his wife’s (Oscar nominee Adriana Barraza) dismay\, he not only rescues the sea creature\, but takes the flightless bird under his wing.

SUMMARY:CIFF Classic Film "The Natural"
DESCRIPTION:If you’re following the smokin’ hot San Diego Padres these days\, then you understand why Coronado Island Film Festival couldn’t resist bringing you the beloved 1983 baseball classic\, “The Natural\,” as its monthly Classic Movie selection for August. \nSee this inspiring film as it was meant to be seen: on the big screen at Coronado’s Village Theatre. Doors open at 5 p.m. for complimentary adult beverages\, followed at 5:30 by a vintage cartoon and the feature presentation. Tickets are $15 and are on sale now at coronadofilmfest.com. \nThe stellar cast includes Robert Redford\, Robert Duvall\, Glenn Close\, Kim Basinger\, Wilford Brimley\, Barbara Hershey\, Robert Prosky\, and Richard Farnsworth. The film is based on Bernard Malamud’s 1952 novel and was directed by Academy Award-winning director Barry Levinson (“Rain Man\,” 1988). \nIt was nominated for four Academy Awards\, including Best Supporting Actress for Glenn Close. \nFilm critics have noted that\, unlike most Hollywood actors who have starred as baseball players down through the years\, Robert Redford as Roy Hobbs in the 1983 classic “The Natural\,” actually looks the part! \nRedford\, who celebrated his 88th birthday on August 18\, was 47 when he filmed “The Natural\,” portraying Hobbs at ages 19 and 35. Too old for the part\, yes\, but his boyish good looks and genuine athletic ability make it all work.

SUMMARY:Spoilers Book Club: "Postcards From The Edge" by Carrie Fisher
DESCRIPTION:The Spoilers Book Club reads books that have been turned into movies. We read the book and get together to watch the film. We compare the two and discuss what we did and didn’t like. \n \n“Postcards From The Edge” by Carrie Fisher\n\nWhen we first meet the extraordinary young actress Suzanne Vale\, she’s feeling like “something on the bottom of someone’s shoe\, and not even someone interesting.” Suzanne is in the harrowing and hilarious throes of drug rehabilitation\, trying to understand what happened to her life and how she managed to land in a “drug hospital.” \nJust as Fisher’s first film role—the precocious teenager in Shampoo—echoed her own Beverly Hills upbringing\, her first book is set within the world she knows better than anyone else: Hollywood. This stunning literary debut chronicles Suzanne’s vivid\, excruciatingly funny experiences inside the clinic and as she comes to terms with life in the outside world. “Postcards from the Edge” is more than a book about stardom and drugs. It is a revealing look at the dangers—and delights—of all our addictions\, from money and success to sex and insecurity. \nFilm\n“Postcards from the Edge” (1990)\nRated R\nRuntime: 1h 41m

SUMMARY:Spielberg’s 1998 Masterpiece\, "Saving Private Ryan"
DESCRIPTION:Nominated for eleven\, and winner of five\, Academy Awards\, “Saving Private Ryan” is considered by many to be the greatest war movie ever made. Presented by Coronado Island Film Festival as part of the popular monthly Classic Film Series\, it will screen at Coronado’s Village Theatre\, 820 Orange Ave.\, on Wednesday\, September 25. \nDoors will open at 5 pm for a Meet and Greet with complimentary wine\, followed by the feature presentation at 5:30. Tickets are $15 and are available at coronadofilmfest.com. \nDirector Steven Spielberg won the Oscar for his work\, as did cinematographer Janusz Kaminski. The opening 24-minute battle scene on Omaha Beach cost $12 million to film over a four-week period\, using 1500 background actors\, and is thought to be one of the greatest pieces of combat cinema ever made. \nThe film is set in Normandy\, France\, and stars Tom Hanks as Capt. John Miller\, who has been ordered to locate a young private from Iowa named James Francis Ryan (Matt Damon) behind enemy lines\, to send him safely home to his grieving mother after his three brothers have all been killed in action. \nThe cast includes Edward Burns as rebellious soldier Richard Reiben\, Tom Sizemore as Mike Horvath\, Miller’s great friend and second-in-command\, and Jeremy Davies as Timothy Upham\, the French and German interpreter. \nAlso watch for the familiar faces of Ted Danson\, Paul Giamatti\, and Bryan Cranston. The music by John Williams is just perfect. \nAs one reviewer put it in 1998\, “It gives us a million reasons why no one should go to war and one very powerful reason to go to war. It’s a soul-numbing\, realistic depiction of what our grandfathers\, fathers\, uncles\, brothers and sons have faced in humanity’s darkest moments. Not just in WWII\, but in any war. No one can see this movie without being altered in some way.” \nTickets are available at coronadofilmfest.com. And – while you’re at it – now is the time to get your badges for CIFF 2024\, Wed. Nov. 6 – Sun. Nov. 10. \nOn October 30\, be sure to join us at our next classic film offering for another of Mel Brooks’ adventures into pure wackiness\, “Bride of Frankenstein\,” as we celebrate Halloween together.

SUMMARY:FILM FORUM CORONADO: "The Spiritualist"
DESCRIPTION:Coronado Public Library\, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival\, presents FILM FORUM CORONADO\, taking place the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the library’s Winn Room. Film expert Ralph DeLauro provides a brief introduction to each film and leads a discussion afterwards\, often including pointers about how lighting or camera angles contribute to a scene’s mood or propel the story. \n \nOctober 2: The Spiritualist (1948\, Approved\, 80 min) \nFrom out of the surf it came… a familiar voice… a voice that belonged to the afterlife. John Alton’s stunning cinematography elevates this supernaturally-tinged\, moody masterwork. A psychic (Turhan Bey) insinuates himself into the cliffside mansion of a wealthy widow by convincing her he can communicate with spirits. With Cathy O’Donnell and Lynn Bari.
