This September will mark the 100th anniversary of the opening of the Princeton Garden Theatre. Through all of the changing ownership, graduating classes, multiple generations of families, one thing remained constant: The Garden has always been Princeton’s home of cinema. Check back for more to come throughout the year.
As part of our year-long celebration, we’ll be looking back at the past century of cinema and showcasing a film from each year. This wide-ranging cinematic survey includes Oscar winners, B-movies, independent productions, world cinema, short films, and documentaries — in short, the evolution of film over the past century. This is 100 for 100.
