Classic Cinema at the Center

Stillwater Music Festival 

Classic Cinema at the Center is provided through a partnership between the Friends of the SCC and the City of Stillwater Community Center. Classic movies will be presented each month and selected by the Friends’ Movie Committee from classics that fit a variety of themes and subjects.

September's movie is the 1949 British Film Noir, The Third Man, starring Joseph Cotton, Alida Valli, Orson Welles, and Trevor Howard.

Considered one the greatest films of all time due to its stellar acting, musical score, and atmospheric cinematography, The Third Man tells the story of a writer who finds himself in war-damaged, Allied-occupied Vienna. The friend he seeks turns up dead and he determines to solve the murder despite repeated warnings to leave town

Written by Graham Greene.
Directed by Carol Reed.
