Every last Sunday of the month, River’s Edge Gallery hosts Movie Night at the Edge — a laid-back evening where one of our friends picks their favorite film, brings some snacks, and shares it with the community. Bring your own drinks, settle in, and enjoy a cool movie with a room full of good people.

This is not your typical silent theater experience — there may be talking, laughing, commentary, and crowd reactions throughout the film. If you love watching movies with friends in a relaxed, living-room-style atmosphere, you’ll fit right in. BYOB, bring a comfy vibe, and join us for a fun night at the gallery.

About:

True Romance is a 1993 American romantic crime drama film directed by Tony Scott and written by Quentin Tarantino. It stars Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette, with Dennis Hopper, Val Kilmer, Gary Oldman, Brad Pitt, and Christopher Walken in supporting roles. Slater and Arquette portray newlyweds who head to California with a stolen suitcase of drugs, with the Mafia in close pursuit and their future very uncertain.

True Romance began life as an early script by Tarantino; he sold the screenplay in order to finance his debut feature film, Reservoir Dogs (1992). It is regarded by proponents as a cross-section of writer Tarantino and director Scott's respective trademarks, including a Southern California setting, pop cultural references, and stylized violence punctuated by slow motion.

Though initially a box-office failure, the film's positive reviews, with critics praising the dialogue, characters, and offbeat style, helped it earn a cult following. It has come to be considered one of Scott's best films.
