Your favorite classic movies shown on 35mm film – the way they were meant to be seen

Join the UCPAC family for a screening of The Godfather in 35mm, with photo ops, themed drinks, and surprises you can’t (and won’t want to) refuse.

The Godfather is a 1972 American epic gangster film directed by Francis Ford Coppola, who co-wrote the screenplay with Mario Puzo, based on Puzo’s best-selling 1969 novel. The Godfather is regarded as one of the greatest and most influential films ever made, as well as a landmark of the gangster genre. The film stars an ensemble cast including Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan, Richard Castellano, Robert Duvall, Sterling Hayden, John Marley, Richard Conte and Diane Keaton. It is the first installment in The Godfather trilogy, chronicling the Corleone family under patriarch Vito Corleone (Brando) and the transformation of his youngest son, Michael Corleone (Pacino), from reluctant family outsider to ruthless mafia boss…The American Film Institute selected The Godfather as the second-greatest film in American cinema.” — Wikipedia

“Popularly viewed as one of the best American films ever made, the multi-generational crime saga The Godfather is a touchstone of cinema: one of the most widely imitated, quoted, and lampooned movies of all time.” — New York Times

Experience The Godfather on the big screen at Union County Performing Arts Center’s Third Thursday Film Series. Don’t miss this cinematic classic.

Join us for photo ops, themed drinks, and surprises you can’t refuse!
