Chinatown Screening + Discussion


Watch Roman Polanski’s Chinatown in 4k as the July installment for Classic Tuesdays — our rapidly growing and successful juggernaut series offered on the last Tuesday of each month.

On July 30, experience this landmark classic mystery film on the big screen. Movie legend Jack Nicholson breathes life into sharp-tongued private eye Jake Gittes. Gittes is hired by a stunning socialite (Faye Dunaway) to investigate her husband, who she suspects of cheating. But what Gittes thinks is a routine case of adultery quickly deteriorates into a tangle of deceit, corruption and treachery.

Even the City of Angels has a dark side, as this private eye is about to find out. He unravels one scandal after the next, but the biggest mystery is what, and who, lies at the heart of it all. Robert Towne’s Academy Award-winning script captures a lost era of crime drama in this timeless gem of a film.

John Farr, Founder of Bedford Playhouse, will introduce and give a short talk about the film before the lights go down. After the screening, guests are invited to join him for “Farr @The Bar” – drinks and casual conversation following the film in the Playhouse Cafe.
