The Los Angeles Philharmonic will screen three classic movies this weekend (here’s a LINK to my story on these sites) and it won’t be a one-off programming concept. Last Friday, the Phil and the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences (the folks who bring us the Oscars) announced that this weekend would kick off a three-year collaboration between the two groups.
No details were announced on what might come in future years; some of that will, undoubtedly, depend on what transpires this weekend, which opens with Rebel Without a Cause on Thursday, continues with On the Waterfront on Friday and concludes with Casablanca on Sunday. INFORMATION
The media release on the new venture is HERE.
