The Classic Film Society presents the comic classic "Mr. Blanding Builds His Dream House" starring Cary Grant and Myrna Loy on Saturday, September 8, 6:30pm at Marycrest Senior Campus.
When advertising executive Jim Blandings (Cary Grant) discovers his wife's (Myrna Loy) plan to redecorate their New York apartment, he counters with a proposal that they move to Connecticut. She agrees, and the two are soon conned into buying a house that turns out to be a complete nightmare. Construction and repair bills accumulate quickly, and Jim worries that their future hangs in the balance unless he can come up with a catchy new jingle that will sell ham. Directed by H. C. Potter the film was released in 1948 and still pleases audiences.
Join other movie buffs at Marycrest Senior Campus, 1607 W. 12th St., Davenport, Iowa in the Upham Hall Auditorium. There is no admission fee. The Classic Film Society does accept donations of $3/per film or $10 for the entire season. For more information, call Bob King 563-391-3502 or email [email protected].
