Pickford Film Center & The Leopold Present...
Leopold Classics: A bimonthly series of classic Hollywood films.
The Leopold Retirement Residence is an assisted living and retirement community located in downtown Bellingham, Washington. Under local ownership, this charming building has been painstakingly restored to its original turn of the century glory and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Leopold’s mission is to make retirement living easy and enjoyable. It encourages community interaction and offers a variety of activities including sponsoring this long running series of classic film favorites.
The Leopold residents and staff are invited to see the films with free admission. The Leopold’s sponsorship also allows PFC to offer tickets to all seniors at greatly reduced rates--$3 for anyone over age 52. Each 6-month (bi-monthly) series highlights an actor, a director or other distinguishing feature. Past series have included Ernst Lubitsch, William Powell, Marlon Brando, and many others. Each limited edition poster includes an iconic image of featured cinematic heroes.
