THIS EVENT HAS PASSED.

In partnership with the Palm Springs International Film Society, this series of Films on the Great Lawn features 1960s horror films.  This is the first film in a series of three for the 2017 fall season.  Admission is FREE.  Other films include The Haunting, September 30 and Village of the Damned, October 7. 

The Innocents: This genuinely frightening, exquisitely made supernatural gothic stars Deborah Kerr as an emotionally fragile governess who comes to suspect that there is something very, very wrong with her precocious new charges. A psychosexually intensified adaptation of Henry James's classic The Turn of the Screw, cowritten by Truman Capote and directed by Jack Clayton, The Innocents is a triumph of narrative economy and technical expressiveness, from its chilling sound design to the stygian depths of its widescreen cinematography by Freddie Francis.
