TWO WEEKS IN ANOTHER TOWN

United States | 1962 | Vincente Minnelli

TWO WEEKS IN ANOTHER TOWN film still

Kirk Douglas plays a washed-up American movie star attempting a comeback in Rome in this overheated movie-industry melodrama set during the “Hollywood on the Tiber” era of the 1950s and 1960s. A critical disappointment and box office flop when first released, this non-musical by the great Vincente Minnelli (Meet Me in St. Louis, An American in Paris) has since grown in stature. With Edward G. Robinson, Cyd Charisse, et al. “One of [Minnelli]'s last great pictures...The costumes, decor, and 'Scope compositions show Minnelli at his most expressive, and the gaudy intensity—as well as the inside detail about the movie business—makes this compulsively watchable.” –Jonathan Rosenbaum. “One of the sharpest and most perceptive movies about the film industry.” –The New Yorker. 107 min.

Special admission $13; members, CIA & CSU I.D. holders, and those age 25 & under $10. No passes or twofers.

Covid safety protocols. Though Governor DeWine has lifted many Covid restrictions throughout the state, the Cleveland Institute of Art is currently keeping its precautions in place and is assiduously enforcing them. Masks must be worn at all times. Temperatures will be checked upon entering the building. Wristbands will be handed out by security and must be worn while in the building. Social distancing will be maintained in the lobby, restrooms, and theater. In the auditorium, there will be one-way traffic flow and seating will be spaced out, with certain seats and rows blocked off. Sanitation/sterilization stations will dot the premises.

Boxoffice and building. Though we will continue to accept both cash and credit cards at the boxoffice, you will notice other temporary changes to our operation. There will be no access to CIA's upper floors (including vending machines), nor to the ground floor beyond the theater and lobby. Our community candy dish will be put away. The Annex parking lot will be closed, so park for free in Lot 73 (off E. 117th St. south of Euclid) and enter the building through Entrance C (the only entry door that will be open) off Lot 73.
