Baxter Avenue Theatres announces its summer midnight movie series [Movies]

Event kicks off with the "Indiana Jones" trilogy. Thankfully, evening will NOT include 2008's dreadful "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."

This Saturday beginning at 10 p.m., Baxter Avenue Theatres (1250 Bardstown Road) will launch its summer midnight movie series — the 150th such screening — with the "Indiana Jones" trilogy. An intermission follows both "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Indiana Jones and Temple of Doom." Yes, by the time "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" is over, it'll probably be about 4 a.m. Which is fine. The first three Indiana Jones films are among my favorites.

Three reasons to cross the bridge this weekend [Southern Indiana]

If the lower cost of living isn't enough to bring you to Southern Indiana, maybe these three weekend events will help you work up the courage to drive across a bridge.

I know there are Louisvillians out there who claim that there is no reason for them to ever come to Indiana. As a former Louisville resident, I was called to Indiana by a much lower mortgage payment. But if the lower cost of living isn't enough to bring you to Southern Indiana, maybe these three weekend events will help you work up the courage to drive across a bridge:

KHS Film Series: “Strangers and Kin: A History of the Hillbilly Image”

Directed by Herb E. Smith, this 1984 film traces the evolution of the “hillbilly” image to explore how stereotypes are created, reinforced and used to rationalize exploitation. “Strangers and Kin” suggests how a people can embrace modernity without becoming strangers to their kin. Popcorn and soda will be provided. $4 for KHS members and $8 for all other patrons. Contact Mike Deetsch at 502-564-1792 for more information.

Farmers’ market by day, cinema by night: Catch a free movie this weekend on Bardstown Road [Highlands]

If you were driving down Bardstown Road last weekend and swore you saw a bunch of people watching a French-subtitled print of 'Ghostbusters' from lawn chairs in a church parking lot, you weren’t hallucinating. And this weekend, you can get up close for a free 'walk-in movie' not once but twice.
