“The Big ChiU" Shown

This weekends presentation at the Gay Street Theater in Washington will be “The Big Chill,” one of the 1984 Academy Award nominees. A well acted, witty and thoroughly entertaining serious comedy, the film focuses on a group of seven former college friends from the ’60s who gather for the funeral of the campus radical who brought them together. They’ve all fallen away from their causes to become the kind of people they used to despise and now find needed solace in each other.

“The Big Chill” will be shown on Friday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 7 p.m. There will be no Monday performance. Next week’s movie, “Educating Rita,” will be shown only once, Sunday at 7 p.m., due to the encore presentation of “Where I’m Cornin’ From,” scheduled for Friday and Saturday, May 4 and 5.
