November 22, 2011 > Night after Thanksgiving movie special Night after Thanksgiving movie special Submitted By Rena Dein Come see Barbara Stanwyck in a holiday film classic at the Edison Theater in Niles, Fremont! "Christmas in Connecticut" (1945, Warner Bros.) stars Stanwyck as a Martha Stewart-type newspaper writer who has misled the public into thinking she is the perfect housewife with a farm in Connecticut (when in fact she is a single woman who lives in a third story walk-up apartment and can't cook), and must try to cover her deception when her boss and a returning war hero invite themselves to her home for a traditional family Christmas. The film also stars Dennis Morgan and Sydney Greenstreet. Don't miss this truly under-rated classic. The evening is a fundraiser for the Adopt a Family / Adopt a Senior program; Nicki Bouton is sponsoring this show. Come on down and show support! Showtime is at 8 p.m. (or half an hour after the conclusion of the Festival of Lights Parade, whichever is later). $10 admission includes popcorn and a drink. Tickets will only be available at the door. Christmas in Connecticut Friday, November 25 8 p.m. Edison Theater Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum 37417 Niles Blvd., Fremont (510) 494-1411 www.nilesfilmmuseum.org Tickets: $10
