What Veda wants, her mother - Mildred Pierce - provides. Even if Mildred must end her middle-class marriage, climb atop the male-dominated business world and marry a wealthy man she doesn't love. "I'll do anything," Mildred says in explaining her love for her daughter. But does anything include murder? From a novel by James M. Cain (The Postman Always Rings Twice, Double Indemnity), Mildred Pierce is a classy murder mystery, a stylish film noir told from a woman's point of view. Joan Crawford's Mildred ended a two-year career slump, earned her a Best Actress Academy Award and revitalized her career. Just when you think you've got this nominee for five other Oscars including Best Picture figured out, along comes a shocking twist ending!Join us for the launch of our classic cocktail club Silver Screen Sippers. Each screening includes an introduction plus complementary movie-star cocktail to go along with the film screening! (Standard tickets are available without a cocktail).
