3RD ANNUAL GREATEST CARTOONS EVER! BIG SCREEN EVENT!™

The day after Christmas has always been a big day for releasing movies, as many families are looking for something to do after all the presents have been opened and all the parties are over. This year, with Christmas midweek, The Alex Film Society decided to keep the spirit of the thought but to move the event to the following Saturday, 29 December, at 2:00 pm and 7:00 pm. This family oriented special event provides a really great alternative to the other pre-packaged Hollywood extravaganzas.

The GREATEST CARTOONS EVER! has showcased some of the very best theatrical cartoons from the movies' Golden Ages, featuring iconic characters like Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, Popeye, Betty Boop, Donald, even the original Superman - all projected in 35mm on the big screen at the Alex Theatre.

Animation historian and author Jerry Beck and producer Frank Gladstone have programmed a hugely entertaining cinematic trip back to a time when animated cartoons were more than an opening act; they were often the most popular part of going to the movies.

General Admission seating

Running time is approximately 2 hours 30 minutes with no intermission, and the event is suitable for ages 6 and older. Photo/Video recording by patrons is not allowed.

Any patron wishing additional information regarding the event and/or assistance with a ticket purchase may call the Alex Theatre Box Office at 818.243.2539 during its normal public hours of operation.
