Nashville (1975) Robert Altman

"Y'all take it easy now. This isn't Dallas, it's Nashville! They can't do this to us here in Nashville!"

24 main characters…two hours and thirty nine minutes…five days in 1975…so much red, white, and blue…and pretty much everything that was on America’s mind leading up to the bicentennial.  Altman’s film is a perfect summary statement for our series.  We love the award-winning song “I’m Easy” by John Carradine…and it’s just so much fun seeing almost everyone who was acting in the 1970s pass by the camera at some point!  Robert Altman, man.  This will make you want a Summer-full of Altman.

ABOUT THE SERIES

Where Were You in 1976?

A look back at bicentennial cinema…

The USA turns 250 years old this year. It’s a BIG birthday! So we’ve put together a series that looks back at our last big birthday…the bicentennial of 1976. Four “prime time” movies in the evenings and one VERY SPECIAL all-ages, FREE, family friendly matinee brought to you by the Palm Springs Public Library. It’s our birthday gift toPalm Springs and we can’t wait to see you!

Deserted Films, the Palm Springs Public Library, and the Palm Springs Cultural Center have teamed up to bring you 5 key films to get us thinking about where we were when we hit 200.

Deserted Films will present a special pre-show (6-6:30) before each feature… and we’ve got some spectacular bicentennial-era home movies and other goodies to share!

Enjoy the PSCC AC! Meet interesting people! See things you can’t see on TV or anywhere else! And support a couple of filmy nonprofits that need your help in the Summer!

Come make the Palm Springs Cultural Center your third place to relax into a look back at 1976 and help Deserted Films continue their mission to digitize home movies shot in and around our valley!
