Cinema Tuesdays
Film producer Christine Vachon once remarked, "Theatrically seeing a movie with a group of people and having a collective experience has an authenticity that you can’t get with your big screen television."
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
Texas Public Radio's 13th annual Cinema Tuesdays series is underway at the Santikos Bijou, located at the Wonderland of the Americas Mall (4522 Fredericksburg Rd). We hope you enjoy this season's schedule of films, featuring classic Hollywood fare, short and foreign films.
This summer’s lineup features several audience requests. So come on out each Tuesday, as we give away some great door prizes, show our film, and have a lot of fun! Show time is 7:30 most nights, with a few shows starting at 7:00. The box office opens one hour before show time. Some screenings can sell out. Please arrive early to ensure optimal seating choice.
Suggested donations of $10 for members and $12 for non-members will get you in for these one-time only showings! We are now offering a Season Pass good for all screenings for a $80 donation.

July 2 - The Flowers of St. Francis
In a series of simple and joyous vignettes, director Roberto Rossellini and co-writer Federico Fellini lovingly convey the teachings of the People's Saint: humility, compassion, faith and sacrifice. Gorgeously photographed to evoke the paintings of St. Francis's time, and cast with monks from the Nocera Inferiore Monastery, "The Flowers of St. Francis" is a timeless and moving portrait of the search for spiritual enlightenment (synopsis by Criterion). Not Rated, 87 minutes. In Italian with subtitles.
Advance reservations close at noon on Tuesday, July 2.
