Films on Friday: The Palm Beach Story (1942)

SRP Auditorium at the Morris Museum

A romantic comedy with a kind of ironic overlay, this film stars Claudette Colbert, Joel McCrea, Mary Astor, and Rudy Vallee. They are supported by the Preston Sturges “stock company” of zany character actors, who do their best to be disruptive—and often succeed. The screening is followed by a discussion. Admission and refreshments are free.
