About this Event
Throw Momma From The Train (1987)
Join MovieJawn at Parkway Central Library for a presentation of THROW MOMMA FROM THE TRAIN
Description courtesy of Letterboxd:
Owen asked his friend Larry for a small favor.
Larry Donner, an author with a cruel ex-wife, teaches a writing workshop in which one of his students, Owen, is fed up with his domineering mother. When Owen watches a Hitchcock classic that seems to mirror his own life, he decides to put the movie’s plot into action and offers to K*ll Larry’s ex-wife, if Larry promises to M**der his mom. Before Larry gets a chance to react to the plan, it seems that Owen has already set things in motion.
