This summer marks a great time to be a fan of classic movies. More theater chains and movie studios are taking a page from the popular TCM Classic Film Festival and are bringing classic movies to the big screen.
Warner Bros and Cinemark are the latest to re-release some of their most popular movies of all time in their “Summer Classics Series.” Featuring eight legendary Hollywood movies, the showings will take place in over 100 Cinemark theatres across the country. All of these digitally restored movies, from the Warner Bros. film catalogue, will be scheduled to play each Wednesday, during the months of June and July, at two separate show times, 2 pm and 7pm.
Cinemark has worked with Warner Bros. to select eight titles that were visionary films at their time of release, and still stand as true “classics” in every sense of the word. The list of the movies that will be shown are listed below:
