Films scheduled so far:
- Paul Leni’s silent thriller THE LAST WARNING (1929) with Laura La Plante as an actress returning to perform in a play five years after its last performance ended in MURDER!

- For election year, a politically charged Double Feature: in ALIAS NICK BEAL (1949), Judge Thomas Mitchell wants to be Governor and his new friend Nick (Ray Milland) has the very Devil of a plan to put him into office; and in THE COUNTY CHAIRMAN (1935), Will Rogers runs for County Prosecutor against old rival Burton Churchill, and has the opportunity to speak his mind on politics and human nature. Whatever your politics, this double-bill is worth your vote!
