The on-screen chemistry between Ross and Williams thrilled audiences and the film received five Academy Award nominations, including Diana Ross for “Best Actress.” 144mins.
Following the film, actor Billy Dee Williams will take the stage to discuss the film as well as his life and long career. Audience members will receive a copy of Mr. Williams’ New York Times bestselling autobiography “WHAT HAVE WE HERE?”
