Hoosiers on Screen

Illustrating the lasting marks the Hoosier state has made on the silver screen over the years, this series proves that the Midwest is just as capable of producing stars as it is corn, flat land, and never-ending goodbyes (we are the masters of “Well, I’ll see you later!” and then continuing the conversation for 30 more minutes, trust us!). Featuring cinematic gems that cross genre and time, our Hoosiers on Screen marathon will pay tribute to four Indiana legends: Carole Lombard, the groundbreaking screwball-comedy queen from Fort Wayne; James Dean, the icon from Fairmount who helped revolutionize film acting; Steve McQueen, the steely King of Cool from Beech Grove; and James Rebhorn, one of our modern-day character actor greats who was raised in Anderson.

Films in the marathon, which runs on March 8th, include:

To Be or Not to Be (start time 12pm) with Carole Lombard
East of Eden (approximate start time of 1:45pm) with James Dean
Bullitt (approximate start time of 3:45pm) with Steve McQueen
The Game (approximate start time of 5:45pm) with James Rebhorn

One $10 ticket gets you access to all four films in the Hoosiers on Screen marathon. Ticketholders can come and go as they please during the films, plus snacks, drinks in resealable/enclosed containers (there are no cupholders in the Cinema!), and finger foods that do not emit a strong odor will be allowed for this special event.
