Saturday Night Free Hitchcock / Sunday afternoon: Shakespeare's Tempest

Saturday, March 11,

Alfred Hitchcock called Shadow of a Doubt his favorite of his films. Made in 1943 and starring Joseph Cotton and Teresa Wright, it was an early entry in the "dark mysteries that lurk in a small town" genre. Hitch was ably assisted by Thornton Wilder with the writing of this picture.

Young Charley is happy when her favorite uncle (also named Charley) comes for an extended visit. She slowly begins to suspect that he is hiding from something.

The Westside Theatre Foundation is offering free admission to this film until the seats are filled. So, come early.
