Smokin’ in Sewickley: 1990s film series set for the Lindsay

SEWICKLEY — Travel back to the 1990s as The Lindsay Theater rolls out its annual Summer Series.

Starting June 4, the Sewickley theater will show nine beloved 1990s classics on the big screen, as filmmakers originally intended.

“We’re breaking out a wide variety of that decade’s most cherished films, from blockbusters such as ‘‘Jurassic Park’ and ‘The Mask, and steamier fare such as Ghost and ‘Basic Instinct,'” the theater’s website says.

The Lindsay is also honoring the late Robert Redford with ‘A River Runs Through It;’ revisiting the Denzel Washington-Julia Roberts thriller ‘The Pelican Brief;’ celebrating ‘Jerry Maguires’ 30th anniversary; and highlighting 35 years of ‘Boyz N the Hood and Thelma & Louise.’

These films will all screen twice between June 4, and Thursday, Aug. 27.

Josh Axelrod, the Lindsay’s communications director, phoned into the Beaver County Radio Morning Show on Wednesday to discuss the ’90s film series. Hear that lively interview here:

“Give in to your ’90s fever and join us for nine summer favorites you already know are all that and a bag of chips,” the Lindsay says.
