Movies at Mechanics' Presents: The African Queen (1951)
Friday, Jun 12 | 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
The members voted on The African Queen (1951) for the first week of June!
Movies at Mechanics’ has welcomed film enthusiasts for classic cinema screenings and salons on Friday evenings for over 20 years. This June, our tradition gets a special twist—Mechanics’ Institute members choose the films. Movies at Mechanics' Members choice is sponsored by Sheila Cunningham, MI Trustee.
Join us for fresh popcorn, lively discourse, and member-selected favorites the first three Fridays of the month. Hosted by Lara Gabrielle, film writer and author of Captain of Her Soul: The Life of Marion Davies.
“Author Gabrielle has given us a gift: an honest biography of a woman whose life and career have long been misunderstood. . . . In short, this is the book Marion Davies has always deserved.”-Leonard Maltin, film critic and historian
