35mmBrunch movie

Lawrence Kasdan's 1981 noir runs Double Indemnity through a Florida heat wave, with William Hurt sweating his way into Kathleen Turner's arrangement and never quite catching up to it. Nitehawk is screening a 35mm print at 11:15 in the morning as a brunch movie, which is a strange and completely correct way to spend a Saturday. It anchors the theater's five-film Kathleen Turner series.

What to expect

A 35mm print, 113 minutes, in Nitehawk's reserved-seat auditorium with brunch service running at your seat during the film. A paired cocktail, the Woogie - white rum, Navy rum, coconut, pineapple, lime and falernum - is listed for this screening. The same show repeats Sunday morning at 11:15.
