Upcoming Movies Include:

Radio Days
Thursday, August 29 | 1 PM
This film, which was written and directed by Woody Allen, only features him in the film as the narrator. It’s a nostalgic look at his childhood and the influence of the golden days of radio in the 30s and 40s. This was the 6th of 13 film collaborations that Mia Farrow did with Woody Allen.

The film was shot on location in Rockaway in Queens New York and The Kaufman Astoria Studios also in Queens. The songs and music of that era play an integral part in the film and there are 43 songs used in the movie. 

Learn about these interesting facts and many more from the movie guy as we talk about ”Radio Days” starring Mia Farrow, Michael Ticker, Julie Kavner  and Seth Green and  then show the film.
