Bound

Sparks fly when Violet (Jennifer Tilly) sets eyes on Corky (Gina Gershon) in an elevator. Violet is the girlfriend of a violent gangster, Caesar (Joe Pantoliano), while Corky is fresh out of prison and doing renovations on the apartment next door. As the two women launch into a passionate love affair, they assemble an intricate plan for Violet to escape from Caesar, with two million dollars of the mob’s money — but the important part is to make it out alive.

Story Screen is a film critique based business operating the beautifully restored, independent movie theater Story Screen Beacon Theater on Main Street in Beacon, NY. Not a pop-up movie theater, aggressively expanded!

Their goal is to generate a culture of film lovers and spread the appreciation of story and structure through the medium of film and television. All of their showings range in age appropriateness, as well as multiple genres, time periods and countries. To learn more visit their website.

Wonder Bar, nested inside the theater, offers delicious snacks, full plates and cocktails (the latter of which you can bring into the theater with you).
