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!

The story of a gambling man and a hustling lady and the empire they fashioned from the wilderness. Robert Altman’s dazzlingly original MCCABE & MRS. MILLER, starring Warren Beatty and Julie Christie, stands the mythology of the Old West on its ear. Critics like Pauline Kael praised the film’s “perfectly realized, poetic western” and Roger Ebert hailed it as “one of the saddest, most beautiful of all films,” noting Vilmos Zsigmond’s snow-veiled cinematography and Leonard Cohen’s haunting songs that turn the story into what Kael called “a mournful ballad of capitalism and lost romance.

> “They say that great actors are never knowingly caught acting; Altman’s best movies are similarly effortless – experiences to be lived in, rather than simply watched.”
> Colin Kennedy, Empire
> “McCabe and Mrs. Miller is like no other Western ever made, and with it, Robert Altman earns his place as one of the best contemporary directors.”
> Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
> “STILL ROBERT ALTMAN’S BEST MOMENT, this 1971 antiwestern murmurs softly of love, death, and capitalism.” – Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
