The Main Library always serves up a worthy movie series for the hot summer months, but this year’s schedule warrants advance mention ahead of our full coverage in an upcoming issue of Creative Loafing.
“All About Mank,” which will for the most part be presented Sundays in the Wachovia Theater at ImaginOn, contains six movies from the multi-Oscar-winning writer-director-producer Joseph L. Mankiewicz. Among the titles being showcased are 1950’s All About Eve, a Best Picture Oscar winner, and 1972’s late-career effort Sleuth, starring Laurence Olivier and Michael Caine.
In addition to the “Mank” titles, the series will open with a couple of silent classics: Harold Lloyd’s 1923 Safety Last and Buster Keaton’s 1923 Our Hospitality.
The series runs June 10 through July 29; admission is free. For a complete schedule, wait for the June 6 issue of Creative Loafing or go to http://plcmc.org/programs/.
