Robert Altman started his career in industrial films before moving on to television in the 60s before barnstorming his way through movie after movie in the early 1970s with MASH, Brewster McCloud, McCabe and Mrs. Miller, The Long Goodbye and Nashville. We are showing another five classics from Altman's phenomenal body of work. All 10 films by this great American filmmaker who gave us so many reasons to keep going to the movies, will be shown in 35 mm prints.
