Social Center October, September 1: screening of Victor/Victoria

Paris in the 1930s, the Great Depression, and a singer who changes her identity to survive — Victor/Victoria follows Victoria, played by Julie Andrews, through a clever, funny, and sharply observed story about gender, class, and social expectations. Directed by Blake Edwards, this 1982 film blends comedy with a pointed critique of patriarchal rules, and at Kino October it will be shown on Tuesday at 8:00 PM. Runtime: 2 hours and 14 minutes.
