Dinner and a Movie

Friday, February 13 at 12:00 p.m. in the Community Room

Silk Stockings (1957), Not Rated

Join us for a romantic afternoon of beautiful costumes and settings, beloved music, and dancing in this musical version of "NINOTCHKA."  Cyd Charisse is the beautiful Russian envoy who succumbs to the romantic lures of Paris, and falls in love with a charming man-about-town (Fred Astaire).  The marvelously matched team of Astaire and Charisse sing and dance to a classic Cole Porter score featuring "All Of You" and "It's A Chemical Reaction, That's All." 

A buffet lunch will be served for $5.00.
