      The Paramount Theatre’s Classic Film Series opened last Friday night, with guest speaker Peter Bogdonovich offering a wealth of oral history about the golden age of American filmmaking. The evening promised a double bill: Casablanca, starring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman, and To Have and Have Not, starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. The evening had the excitement and buzz of a major gala event, without the glitter. Bogdonovich, best known directorially for his films The Last Picture Show and Paper Moon, is also one of the most celebrated authors on the subject of American Cinema. Both films – Casablanca and To Have and Have Not were enhanced to Godlike status while viewing within the splendor of the Paramount Theatre. To see these amazing films within a beautiful, large, architecturally pleasing theatre is an incomparable experience. Do not miss out on seeing classic film at the Paramount this summer; once you go, you will wonder why you haven’t gone before! Collapse
