for the past 30 years this modest theater has been running and playing great independent, foreign, and cult classic films. the quality of the seats, floors, etc are rather low but i seem to enjoy it even more. today at 3 and 7 they will be showing the motion picture Network (1976) for the last day. they have been showing it since thursday! sadly i dont think ill be able to make it.
network is most famous for the line, 'im mad as hell and im not gonna take it anymore'. those words were immortalized in one of the rants of the main character. the broadcasting network in the film runs into poor ratings, so in order to raise them they exploit the rants and raves of howard beale. i really loved this film and if you havent seen it, check a preview of it or two on youtube and decide for yourself!
