Program Description
Event Details
Every Wednesday night at 6 pm, we invite you to join us at Mad for the Movies for free screenings of classic films with the intent of exploring and enjoying cinema from every era. Movies are chosen to fit a fresh theme each month which will typically highlight an actor or director, a genre, a time period, or a common plot element. You are welcome to stay after the film for a casual chat or treat it like a theater visit and leave as soon as the end credits roll.
For the month of August, we will be watching movies picked by a long-time program regular. As a theme, they have chosen films that fit the "One Crazy Night" trope. These movies follow the misadventures of their characters, often in urban settings, over the course of a single night.
On this night, we will be watching Steve De Jarnatt's 1988 film "Miracle Mile" starring Anthony Edwards, Mare Winningham, and John Agar. It is rated R.
A young man hears a chance phone call telling him that a nuclear war has started and missiles will hit the city within 70 minutes.
