PART OF A LINCOLN FILM SERIES: TRUST NO ONE

CLICK HERE FOR MORE

Join us Tuesdays in May for our new film series: TRUST NO ONE: PARANOID THRILLERS FROM 1970s AMERICA.

In the 1970s, a number of factors -- the rise of the counterculture, increasing distrust in governments and corporations in the wake of the Pentagon Papers and Watergate, the fall of the Hays Code and the subsequent emergence of American auteurs -- combined to create a sub-genre of film: conspiracy-laden suspense-thrillers where everyone is being watched, all the phones are bugged, and all nails that stick out must be hammered down. Trust No One, indeed -- these four films embody that ethos in spades.

May 13: The Parallax View

In the wake of a senator's death, investigative journalist Joe Frady (Warren Beatty) uncovers a shadowy corporation that recruits political assassins.

The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes that knowing the truth may seal his fate -- because in a world where conspiracy is institutionalized, Frady finds that the enemy isn't hiding -- it's everywhere.

"A political conspiracy thriller par excellence and a candidate perhaps for Beatty's finest screen moment." —David Wood, BBC

Directed by Alan J. Pakula

Starring Warren Beatty, Paula Prentiss, William Daniels, Hume Cronyn, and featuring a special appearance by the Skagit River
