Classic Movie Club: The Odd Couple (1968)
April 19 @ 4:00 pm
The CLASSIC MOVIE CLUB presents:
Free bi-monthly screenings of Oscar-winning and/or Oscar-nominated films on Blu-ray that are shown on a giant screen using a newly installed high definition 4K video projector.
On Friday, April 19, 2024, at 4:00 pm the Santa Rosa Clubhouse’s Monterey Room, the club will celebrate National Humor Month with a screening of one of the most beloved comedies of all time:
“THE ODD COUPLE” – the original 1968 film starring Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. Directed by Gene Saks, produced by Howard W. Koch, and written by Neil Simon, based on his hit 1965 play. The film was hugely successful with moviegoers and critics, and one of the highest grossing films of the 1960s. The success of the film was the basis for ABC-TV to produce a popular sitcom series based on it, starring Tony Randall and Jack Klugman. The film received two Oscar nominations – for Best Screenplay and Best Film Editing.
After the screening, audience members can take photos of themselves holding a real Oscar statuette. Club membership is not required to attend our screenings.
