Cinephile Paradiso: Meet Me in St. Louis

TBC113 min

Synopsis

Next up in Cinephile Paradiso, we present Vincente Minnelli’s 1944 musical classic, Meet Me in St. Louis…

Featuring a young Hollywood star, Judy Garland, Meet Me in St. Louis takes place one year before the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair. It follows the four young Smith daughters who learn lessons of life and love as they prepare for their reluctant move to New York.

This film is a classic and its enduring popularity is a result of its fantastic blend of music, romance and humour. It has gone down in history for its incredible score and in particular for its hit “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”.

Come join us for our December screening and Cinephile Paradiso’s first musical.

Cinephile Paradiso is a monthly event that celebrates classic cinema on the big screen. Post-screening meet-ups take place in Pálás bar to encourage discussion of the film, what it means, and how it has this changed over time.
