New 4K Restoration

*Introduced by Bret Wood and Felicia Feaster

(1945, William Beaudine) The brainchild of legendary showman Kroger Babb, the no-punches-pulled, sex-education film Mom and Dad played the roadshow circuit continuously for 30 years and earned an estimated (and not exaggerated) $40M at the box-office, not counting revenue from sex-education booklets peddled in the aisles. This special presentation revives the film in a new 4K restoration, complete with live medical lecture by Dr. Elliot Forbes. DCP. Approx. 97 min.
