WALL•E at The Planetarium

THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE at Screening Room
75 years old, and still one of the great American movies
This May, our Screening Room selection is a seminal Western adventure, and an epic meditation on the human condition and the corrupting influence of greed is arguably director John Huston’s magnum opus. It won him an Oscar, as well as his actor father Walter - but Humphrey Bogart’s performance remains one of the greatest never to receive an Oscar nomination…
