Remembering Rob Reiner at The Black Potion!
Details
Hello, SA Movie Lovers!
We weren't able to pull this off in January due to nasty weather, so let's try again! We're kicking off March with a celebration of one of Hollywood’s most versatile filmmakers, Rob Reiner! From romantic idealism to razor-sharp courtroom drama, we'll be showcasing two of his most iconic films back-to-back.
6:00pm – The American President (1995)
Rob Reiner and writer Aaron Sorkin team up for this smart, warm-hearted romantic drama starring Michael Douglas as a widowed U.S. president who unexpectedly falls in love. Witty, sincere, and deeply human, it blends political idealism with old-fashioned movie romance — a reminder that character still matters in power.
8:05pm – A Few Good Men (1992)
This gripping courtroom drama pits military loyalty against moral truth as two young lawyers uncover a dangerous conspiracy within the U.S. Marine Corps. Featuring powerhouse performances from Tom Cruise, Demi Moore, and an unforgettable Jack Nicholson, it’s a tense, endlessly quotable classic that builds to one of cinema’s great confrontations.
Two films, two sides of Rob Reiner’s filmmaking genius — romance and righteousness, hope and hard truth — all on the big screen.
