WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY
BILLY WILDER
Friday, July 14 – Thursday, August 3, 2023
A three-week festival of the legendary Hollywood director and screenwriter’s genre-spanning work. With over 30 films, most in 35mm, including SUNSET BLVD., DOUBLE INDEMNITY, THE LOST WEEKEND, THE APARTMENT, ACE IN THE HOLE, BALL OF FIRE, SOME LIKE IT HOT, SABRINA, A FOREIGN AFFAIR, THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH and many more.
"All that's left on the cutting-room floor when I'm through are cigarette butts, chewing gum wrappers and tears. A director must be a policeman, a midwife, a psychoanalyst, a sycophant, and a bastard."
– Billy Wilder
