CinemaLit: Design for Living (1933) – 91 minutes

After more than a year of Friday night CinemaLit discussions on Zoom, we're going live again at the Mechanics' Institute screening room. Join us at 6pm for a film followed by a lively discussion.

CinemaLit October: Classics with Wit

Our first back-to-the-screening-room theme highlights sophisticated comedies of the 1930s. Each one sparkles with fantastic dialogue, peerless acting, and a few of the great screen teams of all time.

October 29 – Design for Living (1933) – 91 minutes

Directed by Ernst Lubitsch, starring Fredric March, Miriam Hopkins, and Gary Cooper.

Hopkins can't decide between March and Cooper, so the three cohabitate with comedic complications ensuing.
