Featuring a screening of The Karate Kid, a post-film discussion, and Q&A!
Join us for a special evening with screen legend Ralph Macchio, star of the iconic film The Karate Kid. Following the screening, Macchio will appear in person for a conversation with Cinema Arts Centre staff member Josh Suarez about the making of the film, his career, and the enduring legacy of one of the most beloved underdog stories in movie history.
Released in 1984, The Karate Kid became a cultural phenomenon and introduced audiences to Daniel LaRusso, a scrappy New Jersey teenager who moves to Los Angeles with his mother, and soon strikes up a relationship with Ali. He quickly finds himself the target of bullying by a group of thugs, led by Ali's ex-boyfriend Johnny, who study karate at the Cobra Kai dojo under ruthless sensei John Kreese. Fortunately, Daniel befriends Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita), an unassuming repairman who just happens to be a martial arts master himself. Miyagi takes Daniel under his wing, training him in a more compassionate form of karate for self-defense and, later, preparing him to compete against the brutal Cobra Kai. (USA, 1984, 127 mins, PG, English, Dir. John G. Avildsen)
More recently, Macchio has returned to the role that made him famous in the hit series Cobra Kai, and the film Karate Kid: Legends, bringing the story of Daniel LaRusso to a new generation of audiences. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience The Karate Kid on the big screen and hear from Ralph Macchio himself about the film that became a timeless classic!
