Cinema St. Louis announces lineup "Golden Anniversaries: Films of 1973" discussions & screenings

ST. LOUIS - EntSun -- The Golden Anniversaries film series — an annual presentation of Cinema St. Louis (CSL) — features classic films celebrating their 50th anniversaries. The sixth edition of the event highlights films from 1973.

This year, Cinema St. Louis will hold both virtual conversations and in-person screenings as part of Golden Anniversaries. Virtual conversations are presented free of charge.

The online conversations, with people watching the films on their own but gathering virtually to discuss them, will continue through December. The virtual programs will be available as livestreams through Eventive. Each online event has a link to register on the CSL website: cinemastlouis.org/golden-anniversaries.

This year's series kicked off in April and will continue through December, with films playing on Sunday afternoons at the Hi-Pointe Theatre, 1005 McCausland Ave, 63117.

Tickets are required for the in-person screenings at the Hi-Pointe. Free parking is available at the Hi-Pointe Backlot or Lindell Bank across the street from the theater.

In addition, during the 32nd Annual Whitaker St. Louis International Film Festival, which takes place from Nov. 9-19, CSL will offer a trio of free Golden Anniversaries screenings — Jack Hill's "Coffy" (with Novotny Lawrence), Robert Clouse's "Enter the Dragon" (with Daniel Yezbick), and Peter Bogdanovich's "Paper Moon" (with Tom O'Keefe) — on the second Saturday and Sunday of the fest at the St. Louis Public Library - Central Branch, 1301 Olive St., 63103.

Whether the event is held online or in person, film critics, film academics, filmmakers, and writers will offer introductory remarks and participate in discussions about the films. In addition to St. Louis-based experts, Golden Anniversaries will again feature contributors from elsewhere, including returning presenter Novotny Lawrence ("Coffy" and "Cleopatra Jones") and new participants such as freelance writer and film historian, Marya E. Gates ("Love & Anarchy").
