DAY ONE - A VALENTINE'S WEEKEND TRIBUTE
To John Hughes R.I.P.
This seven-film, two-day festival celebrates John Hughes (R.I.P.) on what would have been his 60th birthday this February. Spanning his whole career from earliest screenplays for National Lampoons to his heartbreaking teen classics, Hughes was always interested in exploring class differences and teen angst not to mention making Molly Ringwald one of the most a-typical 1980s female stars. Don't miss seeing these decade-defining films with the people who genuinely love them. ONLY $10 EACH DAY!
