SHANE on the Big Screen w/ TPR's Cinema Tuesdays

Don't miss the opportunity to experience this classic Hollywood motion picture on the big screen; Shane was nominated for six Oscars, winning one for Best Color Cinematography. Catch it tonight at Santikos Bijou Cinema Bistro as part of the Cinema Tuesdays Series presented by Texas Public Radio.

"Alan Ladd plays the titular character in this classic Western. Former gunfighter Shane rides into town looking for work, and takes up with a family of homesteaders. The son, Joey, idolizes him; the mother, Marion, grows to love Shane but neither party dares speak of it. Meanwhile, a local gang is threatening the family, hoping to drive them off their land. The gang’s muscle? Jack Palance, clad in black, who hardly speaks in the film, but is one of the most memorable villains of the Western genre."
