Cool Hand Luke at the Paramount Theatre

Beloved classic film series comes back with Paul Newman's great antihero character.

We're so lucky to have the greatest art deco theater in the entire world, right here in the East Bay. Oakland's Paramount Theatre has been wowing its guests since 1931. One of my favorite recurring events at the Paramount is the classic film series, which has been on hiatus for awhile. But this Friday, October 17, the paramount starts a new series and they could not have picked a better film—Cool Hand Luke, starring the late great Paul Newman—to kick things off. They'll have the great Phantom of the Opera on Halloween, the Alfred Hitchcock classic North by Northwest on November 7, and the all-time greatest musical Singin' In the Rain on November 21. Admission is just $5, the best movie deal around, since a film at the Paramount includes a live Wurlitzer organ performance, cartoons and Movietone newsreels, a real old time night at the cinema.
