In Frame May: Mildred Pierce
Safe Harbors of the Hudson is proud to present the In Frame Film Series, monthly movie nights at the Lobby at the Ritz hosted by Shane Killoran, Founder and Director of Hit House Creative and the Beacon-based Hit House Film series.
The In Frame Film Series will screen a diverse and dynamic range of titles, with the goal of connecting community via the experience of film. Come early for beverages, traditional movie snacks, food offerings, and time to converse with your fellow cinephiles. Shane will introduce each film, providing insights into the filmmakers and artists involved, historical context and impact, and even some Hollywood gossip.
We’ve graduated from The Graduate. Now it’s time to slip into a noir-infused drama, Mildred Pierce (Curtiz, 1945). In an Academy Award winning performance, Joan Crawford stars as a determined single mother who rises from housewife to successful restaurateur to provide for her daughter, Veda. The story unfolds through the murder investigation of Mildred’s second husband. Join us on May 16 for this twisted web of ambition, jealousy, and maternal obsession.
