About
Screening at Gene Siskel Film Center October 5 at. Listed on Gene Siskel Film Center's official calendar.
Billy Wilder’s caustic look at journalism, ambition, and public spectacle remains unusually well suited to a weeknight repertory slot. Kirk Douglas leads the 111-minute film, and the 5:45 PM start leaves room for dinner or another downtown stop afterward.
What to expect
Settle in for a 111-minute digital presentation in English at the Gene Siskel Film Center. Monday’s screening begins at 5:45 PM; the advertised discussion with Jonathan Rosenbaum and Jane Ruby belongs to Sunday’s screening, not this one.
