The Hi-Pointe has its own parking in various places behind the theater, but in 45 years of going there, I have never used it.

After the movie, we will gather in the lobby for lively, provocative, and insightful conversation--OR as close as we can come to that, anyway--HA!
******************************************************************************
Disillusioned and exhausted after a decade of battling in the Crusades, a knight (Max von Sydow) encounters Death on a desolate beach and challenges him to a fateful game of chess. Much studied, imitated, even parodied, but never outdone, Bergman’s stunning allegory of man’s search for meaning, The Seventh Seal (Det sjunde inseglet), was one of the benchmark foreign imports of America’s 1950s art-house heyday, pushing cinema’s boundaries and ushering in a new era of moviegoing.

> Stark and mythic, drawing its power from the symbolic repertoire of medieval religious painting and an utterly modern spiritual quest, The Seventh Seal “contains some of the most extraordinary images ever committed to celluloid.” (Time Out)

NOTE: On Rotten Tomatoes, this movie has a 93% on the Tomatometer and a 93% on the Popcornmeter.
