Classic Community Cinema: In A Lonely Place (1955)

About this event

Adults: 18 and up, Teens: 13 to 19 years. Join us for a classic Bogart film for community cinema, In A Lonely Place! A down on his luck screenwriter reluctantly agrees to adapt a trashy bestseller to the silver screen. Rather than read the book himself, Steele convinces a star-struck hatcheck girl, Mildred Atkinson, to accompany him home and tell him the story in her own words. Later that night, Mildred is found murdered and Steele, who has a history of violent behavior, becomes the prime suspect. A neighbor who is attracted to him lies to the police providing him with an alibi. Is he innocent or not? © Columbia Pictures | 93 minutes Community Cinema is at a branch near you!
