Last Remaining Seats...


Orpheum

More than a few bloggers have already mentioned this festival, but it's important that we get the word out on a Los Angeles Institution, the Last Remaining Seats Film Festival. It's one of the few chances we have to see truly classic films in wonderful historic venues including, this year, the Orpheum and Alex Theaters. Here's the schedule:

2007 Schedule (Wednesdays at 8 p.m.)

May 23 North by Northwest Orpheum Theatre
May 30 Roman Holiday Los Angeles Theatre
June 6 Flesh and the Devil Orpheum Theatre
June 13 Yankee Doodle Dandy Los Angeles Theatre
June 20 La Balandra Isabel llego esta tarde John Anson Ford Amphitheatre
June 27 Scarface Alex Theatre

On the one hand, Hitchcock at the Orpheum sounds like a sure bet, but whose idea was it to show Scarface? It's fun watching Pacino do his schtick, but Scarface a veritable film classic? I guess this gives Angelenos a good opportunity to revive the debate...
