Purple Rain: 40th Anniversary Screening!
Join The Film Junkies as we host a special 40th anniversary presentation of PURPLE RAIN, starring Prince, with a stunning new 4K restoration.
Let’s go crazy, let’s get nuts! Let’s celebrate the birthday month of the late-great music icon, Prince with a special 40th anniversary presentation of Albert Magnoli’s 1984 rock-drama, PURPLE RAIN. The iconic film won an Academy Award for best original score, which includes such hits as Prince’s Let’s Go Crazy, When Doves Cry, I Would Die 4 U, Purple Rain and Morris Day’s Jungle Love.
A victim of his own anger, the Kid (Prince) is a Minneapolis musician on the rise with his band, the Revolution, escaping a tumultuous home life through music. While trying to avoid making the same mistakes as his truculent father (Clarence Williams III), the Kid navigates the club scene and a rocky relationship with a captivating singer, Apollonia (Apollonia Kotero). But another musician, Morris (Morris Day), looks to steal the Kid’s spotlight — and his girl.
Don’t miss Prince is in very first major motion picture on Saturday, June 15th at 10pm at The Gateway Theater in Fort Lauderdale.
