BOUND FOR GLORY (50th Anniversary)
Wed. December 9
Tickets: $13
Doors: 6:30pm // Showtime: 7pm
Film Trailer:
The Dust Bowl overtakes his native Oklahoma in the early 1930s, and struggling young musician Woody Guthrie (David Carradine) leaves his wife, Mary (Melinda Dillon), to join the great westward migration to southern California. When he meets singer and union agitator Ozark Bule (Ronny Cox), Guthrie finds his populist political voice -- but at the expense of his personal life. Director Hal Ashby adapted this biopic from Guthrie's 1943 autobiography of the same title.
BOUND FOR GLORY was the first motion picture in which inventor/operator Garrett Brown used his new Steadicam for filming moving scenes. Nominated for Best Pictures and winner of Two Academy Awards for Best Original Score Song and Best Cinematography (Haskell Wexler), BOUND FOR GLORY, is one of Ashby’s most heartfelt films, and one of the few in which he eschews his signature satirical mode, trading it for an earnest celebration of one of the great luminaries of the American folk art tradition.
Dir. Hal Ashby, 147 min, 1976, USA
