Alex Film Society Presents High School Confidential (1958)
2015-07-25 20:00 | Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale, CA, 91203, United States
HIGH SCHOOL CONFIDENTIAL is a 1958 teen exploitation picture where all the teens seem to be played by thirty year olds. This hilarious marijuana exposé, directed by Jack Arnold, opens with the title song performed by Jerry Lee Lewis. It became an instant hit for Sam Phillips’ Sun Records and reached #21 on the Billboard charts. The wildly improbable cast is headed by fifties pinup queen Mamie Van Doren and features Russ Tamblyn, Jan Sterling, John Drew Barrymore, Jackie Coogan, Michael Landon, Charlie Chaplin Jr. and even William Wellman Jr. A perfect time capsule of ’50s teen angst and beatnik rebellion, High School Confidential is a rare example of a major studio (MGM) trying to cash in on a burgeoning teen market. Filmed in glorious black and white CinemaScope, The Official Razzie Movie Guide rates it one of The 100 Most Enjoyable Bad Movies Ever Made.

Opera California Youth Choir Presents The Sign
2015-07-11 19:30 | Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale, CA, 91203, United States
Opera California Youth Choir presents THE SIGN
Everyone is looking for a sign, some kind of symbol to guide them through life.
In this play, THE SIGN, we follow a group of orphaned children and their caretaker, Pastor Sam, played by Samuel Shin. This tight-knit group’s story begins when Iris, one of the orphans, has a dream, a sign foreshadowing the orphans’ greatest fear, losing their one and only home. This fear takes form when an evil Rich Person, played by Jonathan Baek, suddenly appears to tell them they have one week to leave. Is their testament to loving God and each other strong enough to get them through this tough time? With supernatural help from an unexpected guest, things may turn out for the best.
True friendship is championed through trials and tribulations and, with signs and wonders all around us, would you believe that the children and their beloved Pastor could have faith enough to overcome this obstacle by the bonds of God’s love?

Soroptimist Int'l Alhambra Presents Girl Rising
2015-06-28 14:30 | Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale, CA, 91203, United States
The documentary film GIRL RISING is the centerpiece of a global campaign to educate and empower girls. It spotlights the stories of nine unforgettable girls born into unforgiving circumstances who rise above their conditions in life. It is narrated in English, but the girls tell their stories in their native languages with English subtitles.
Directed by Academy Award-nominee Richard E. Robbins and produced by award-winning former ABC News journalists, this moving documentary follows the stories of girls such as Sokha, an orphan who rises from a life in the garbage dump in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, to become a star student and an accomplished dancer; Suma, who writes songs that helped her endure forced servitude in Nepal and today crusades to free others; and Ruskana, an Indian ‘pavement-dweller’ whose father sacrifices his own basic needs for his daughter’s dreams.
Each story is narrated by celebrated actresses: Cate Blanchett (Haiti), Priyanka Chopra (India), Selena Gomez (Sierra Leone), Anne Hathaway (Afghanistan), Salma Hayek (Peru), Alicia Keys (Cambodia), Chloe Moretz (Egypt), Meryl Streep (Ethiopia), and Kerry Washington (Nepal). Girl Rising also features original music from Academy Award-winner Rachel Portman and Lorne Balfe.
