Pink Floyd: The Wall

Pink Floyd: The Wall
Directed by Alan Parker

Saturday, October 20, 6 pm

In one of the most audacious rock films ever made, Alan Parker marries live action with animation in this film based on Pink Floyd’s 1979 album. In the film, the reclusive rocker named Pink is driven to the brink of insanity by the death of his father and builds a metaphysical and, at times, physical wall to protect himself from emotional situations. The screenplay was written by Pink Floyd bassist Roger Waters. 1982, U.K., video, 95 minutes. Rated R.


Deep in Vogue: Louisville’s Treasured Cinema

October 12 – 28

For over 20 years, the Vogue Theater was Louisville’s celebrated arthouse cinema with a plethora of screenings of classic Hollywood fare, foreign films, wild cult films, children’s matinees, American independent releases, and the ever-popular The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The cinema in St. Matthews packed houses and gave an informal film education to the region.

This fall marks the 20th anniversary since its closing and this series celebrates beloved films that played at the Vogue. In addition, there will be a display of ephemera from the Vogue preserved by former Vogue staff members and local cinema archivist David Conover.
