THE SAND PEBBLES
(1966) (179 min.) (Color) (Stereo)

Regular Admission  -  $7

Steve McQueen, Richard Attenborough, Richard Crenna, Candice Bergen, Mako. Directed by Robert Wise.
Excellently told, superbly photographed story of civilizations clashing on China's Yangtze River in 1926. McQueen, in one of his best performances, plays a cynical sailor on a U.S. gunboat. Makes some pointed observations about U.S. imperialism, and the subtle parallels with Vietnam are purely intentional. Nominated for 8 Oscars, including Best Picture, Actor (McQueen) and Supporting Actor (Mako). Restored print! First time in Dolby Digital Stereo!
