The Treasure is at The Redford Theatre!, originally uploaded by FatherDalton.
This weekend, the Redford Theatre is proud to present Humphrey Bogart in a much more typical rough, tough persona as he descends into greed and paranoia in the classic “The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.” Starring with Bogart were Tim Holt and Walter Huston, the father of director John Huston. Both Hustons won Academy Awards (for direction and supporting actor) — a first for a father/son team.This film has become a classic and has been named one of the top movies of all time. Watch for the line from the Mexican outlaw chief that has become a famous movie quote. Mel Brooks reprised it in his western parody “Blazing Saddles.” Performances are Friday, Septmber 9 at 8:00 pm and Saturday, September 10 at 2:00 and 8:00 pm. The feature will be preceded by a Warner Brothers cartoon, “Bacall to Arms” — and you will want to arrive a half hour early for live music on the fabulous Barton Theatre Pipe Organ.
See you at the Theatre!
