Just added! The Great Waldo Pepper co-star Bo Svenson will join us IN PERSON, schedule permitting, to introduce our screening on Wednesday, March 30th.
The second greatest flyer in the world! The war was over – and the world’s greatest flyers had never met in combat. But The Great Waldo Pepper was going to change all that – even if it killed him. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid director George Roy Hill, screenwriter William Goldman, and star Robert Redford reteam for a thrilling adventure about the passing of an era. Redford is Waldo Pepper, a former WWI biplane pilot dreaming of glory but stuntflying for shrinking audiences during the waning years of barnstorming popularity. But he soon finds himself in Hollywood with the opportunity to help recreate one of the Great War’s great air battles. Co-starring Susan Sarandon, Margot Kidder, Bo Svenson, Geoffrey Lewis, and Edward Herrmann.
