Showtimes for All That Heaven Allows
Part of: Melo-Drama-Rama
Presented by Melo-drama-rama in 35mm!
How much does heaven allow a woman in love? Melodrama maestro Douglas Sirk asks this question and many more in his sensitive parable of sensational class-gap love, All That Heaven Allows. At what point may a mother put her desires above those of her children? Just how beautiful can a gilded cage get? Has there ever been a man half as gorgeous as Rock Hudson? Is there anything more depressing than a television on wheels? Yearn for these answers and more, while basking in the technicolor glow of the lushest images in cinema history, painted with colors so brilliant, they need to be seen to be believed. Projected one night only in vivid 35mm, as part of The Heights Theater’s monthly Mel-O-Drama-Rama series- a celebration of insane passion, torrid romance, and delirious emotion.
Two different social classes collide when Cary Scott, a wealthy upper-class widow, falls in love with her much younger and down-to-earth gardener, prompting disapproval and criticism from her children and country club friends.
