Join us Tuesdays in March for our film series: COSTUMES BY EDITH HEAD.

With over 500 film credits, 35 Academy Award nominations, and 8 wins, Edith Head was the greatest costume designer of Hollywood’s golden age. Join us for three of her most glamorous and sumptuous films!

March 4: All About Eve

Bette Davis is at her best -- witty, sarcastic, biting and vulnerable -- in this backstage story revolving around aspiring actress Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter). Tattered and forlorn, Eve shows up in the dressing room of Broadway mega-star Margo Channing (David), telling a melancholy life story to Margo and her friends. Margo takes Eve under her wing, but the results are unexpected.

"All About Eve is one of the smartest pictures of all time." —Edwin Schallert, Los Angeles Times

"A scintillating, stimulating, extraordinary achievement." —Mildred Martin, Philadelphia Enquirer

Directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz

Starring Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, George Sanders, Celeste Holm

March 11: Roman Holiday

Overwhelmed by her suffocating schedule, touring European princess Ann (Audrey Hepburn, in her American film debut) takes off for a night while in Rome. When a sedative she took from her doctor kicks in, however, she falls asleep on a park bench and is found by an American reporter, Joe Bradley (Gregory Peck),who takes her back to his apartment for safety.

At work the next morning, Joe finds out Ann's regal identity and bets his editor he can get exclusive interview with her -- but romance soon gets in the way.

"With Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn turning in superb performances, Roman Holiday is 118 minutes of sheer entertainment." —Milton Luban, The Hollywood Reporter

Directed by William Wyler

Starring Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn, Eddie Albert

March 18: To Catch a Thief

Alfred Hitchcock brings his particular sense of style and humor in a movie about the notorious cat burglar John Robie (Cary Grant) has long since retired to tend vineyards on the French Riviera.

When a series of robberies is committed in his style, John must clear his name. Armed with a list of people who own the most expensive jewels currently in the area, John begins following the first owner, young Francie (Grace Kelly).

When her jewels are stolen, Francie suspects John, destroying their tentative romance. John goes on the lam to catch the thief and clear his own name.

"It literally bubbles with humor, spice, sparkling dialogue and baffling complications which keep the moviegoer on tenterhooks right up to the big surprise ending." —Jean Yothers, Orlando Sentinel

"A twinkling, innuendo-laden pleasure, with Grant, Kelly and the French Riviera vying for your attention." —Ed Potton, Times UK

Directed by Alfred Hitchcock

Starring Cary Grant, Grace Kelly
