The Strand to host free movie night on Thanksgiving

VICKSBURG, Miss. (VDN) — After the turkey is carved and bellies are stuffed with dressing and pumpkin pie, grab the family and head to The Strand Theatre, 717 Clay Street, in Vicksburg for a free showing of “Charade”.

Gary Sessums is sponsoring a Thanksgiving gift for all at the Strand Theatre: a free showing of the film “Charade”, a romantic comedy starring Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn in what’s been called “the best Alfred Hitchcock movie Hitchcock never made.” 

Co-starring Walter Matthau, James Coburn, and George Kennedy; “Charade” is a suspenseful thriller that blends suspense, romance, and comedy. The ending, as in every self-respecting suspense movie, is a dramatic climax. In the movie’s denouement, the real villains are revealed- and it’s not the butler.

In that spirit of Thanksgiving, guests are invited to make donations to River City Rescue Mission.

The showing begins at 7 p.m., and of course, the popcorn is free!
