A MINNEAPOLIS-BASED SCREENING SERIES FOR CAREFULLY-CURATED CLASSIC FILMS
Join us the second Saturday of each month for our famed
SATURDAY MORNING MOVIE CHURCH!*
*Not a church—just a cult.
From zany screwball comedies to psychological thrillers to aching romantic dramas, we screen classic films once a month on Saturday mornings at the Howard Conn Theater (1900 Nicollet Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55403).
Step into the light Saturday, October 10th with Paolo Sorrentino’s unmissable 2013 Italian masterpiece The Great Beauty.
Doors open at 10am with coffee and pastries available for purchase and our feature presentation flickering to life at 10:30am.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FILM OF THE 21ST CENTURY!
You heard it here first. Paolo Sorrentino's Academy Award-winning film is a dazzling journey through Rome's splendor and excess as an aging writer drifts among artists, aristocrats, and memories in search of life's meaning. If you only catch one movie this year, this is the one to see on a big screen.
Doors open at 10am with coffee and pastries available for purchase and our feature presentation starting at 10:30am.
All screenings are located at the Howard Conn Fine Arts Center and the theater entrance is Door 3 off of Nicollet Ave (around the corner from the main parking area). Free parking is available anywhere in the Plymouth Congregation Church parking lot.
COMEDY AT THE END OF THE WORLD!
Charlie Chaplin’s THE GOLD RUSH follows the Little Tramp to the Klondike in a delightful blend of comedy and pathos. Featuring unforgettable scenes like the dancing rolls and the boiled shoe, it remains one of silent cinema’s warmest, funniest, and most enduring masterpieces—even after 101 years!

"OF COURSE HE HAS A KNIFE. HE ALWAYS HAS A KNIFE. WE ALL HAVE KNIVES.
IT'S 1183 AND WE'RE BARBARIANS. "
THE LION IN WINTER is a brilliantly taut battle of wills between kings, queens, and heirs. Set during Christmas at the court of King Henry II, the film follows the king, his imprisoned wife Eleanor of Aquitaine, and their scheming sons as they battle over succession and influence. Peter O’Toole and Katharine Hepburn lead an extraordinary cast in this witty, fiercely intelligent drama of family rivalry, ambition, and power.
This Special Thursday Night Presentation will begin at 7pm with doors opening at 6:30pm.
