AV Art Society Presents: Smokehouse Cinema - The Little Princess (1939)
November 13 | Doors open at 6:30 | $5 Donation | Kids Free
Before Hollywood had superheroes, it had Shirley Temple, a tiny powerhouse with curls, dimples, and enough joy to lift an entire generation through the Great Depression.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt even famously said, “as long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right.”
At just 10 years old, she wasn’t just America’s sweetheart, she was America’s hope. When times were dark, she made people laugh again. When hearts were heavy, she helped them believe things could get better. Her smile, her songs, and her unstoppable spirit reminded audiences everywhere that light always finds a way.
In The Little Princess, she gives one of her most moving performances, a story of hope and resilience set against the backdrop of wartime London.
What makes this film so special isn’t just its history though, it’s the way it feels. It’s about holding onto kindness when the world feels uncertain. It’s about believing in happy endings even when the odds are stacked against you. And it’s a reminder of how stories told long ago can still make us laugh, tear up, and believe again today.
So come join us under the stars at The Grace District for an evening of laughter, nostalgia, and a little movie magic.
Because sometimes the smallest stars leave the biggest light.
