Also, our apologies to guest speaker Neil Harrell for misspelling his first name. 


LEAVE HER TO HEAVEN

Two Screenings:
Tuesday, September 19 & Sunday, September 24
with post-film discussion.

John M. Stahl’s Leave Her to Heaven is steeped in film noir themes. Featuring Oscar-nominated Gene Tierney in a love triangle with Cornel Wilde and Jeanne Crain, this gorgeous Technicolor drama not only has murder and intrigue — it explores the thin line that separates love and obsession. The film offers a character study of the femme fatale at her best (and worst) and examines the consequences of all-consuming pathological jealousy.

NKU pop culture and cinema expert Dr. John Alberti will lead the post-film discussion after each screening.

Info and tickets.
