Summer 2004 Schedule (films start at 8pm)
Friday, Sept. 3: BABE (1995)
When a pink, precocious piglet named Babe arrives at Hoggett farm, a precarious social order is toppled -- permanently. The epic tale of the little-swine-that-could and his struggle to fit in and become a champion sheepherder won the hearts of audiences everywhere. Animatronics bring Babe and company to hyper-convincing life, and George Miller's humble yet edgy script will appeal to all ages.
Saturday, Sept. 4: BRINGING UP BABY (1938)
Starring Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant, May Robson.

In this screwball comedy, heiress Susan is determined to catch a stuffy zoologist and uses her pet leopard, Baby, to help get his attention. The elements of this farce include a yappy terrier who steals and buries an irreplaceable fossilized bone, a pompous big game hunter, a rich old aunt, a jealous fiancée, and a case of mistaken identity involving a second, and vicious, leopard.
Sunday, Sept. 5: FIERCE CREATURES (1997)
Starring Kevin Kline, John Cleese, Michael Palin, Jamie Lee Curtis.

The stars of A Fish Called Wanda reunite for this farce about a failing zoo that owner Rod McCain (Kline) threatens to close. When new manager Rollo (Cleese) implements a "fierce creatures only" policy to increase profits, zookeeper Bugsy (Palin) tries to save all the timid animals, while McCain's son Vince (Kline again) does shady deals on the side … and executive Willa (Curtis) must decide whose side she's on.
