Mr. Osborne will discuss with Majestic Founding Executive Director Jeffrey Gabel, the important role movie theaters have played in America’s small towns such as Gettysburg. In 2016, the Majestic celebrates its 90th anniversary as Gettysburg’s local cinema, beginning with silent movies in 1926 and moving on to sound features, many Peter Lorre films, including Casablanca, among them.
The program begins at 7:30 pm.
Admission is $25 for all seats. Tickets may be purchased at the Majestic’s box office in person or by calling (717) 337-8200 during regular business hours, Monday rough Saturday, noon to 7:30 pm.

In March of 2006, Robert Osborne shared his thoughts on the authorized Lorre biography – “What I read most of the time are biographies. I don't read fiction because I feel I get enough fiction from the movies I see . . . There's also a wonderful one out now on Peter Lorre: The Lost One by Stephen D. Youngkin.”
Mr. Osborne’s review is one of many in the “Critics Are Saying” section of The Lost One: A Life of Peter Lorre website.
The Lost One: A Life of Peter Lorre is available in hard-back and soft-bound editions, as well as eBooks for the Kindle and Nook.
