PARADISE THEATRE presents THE HOLLY AND THE IVY

"Someday soon we all will be together, if the fates allow, until then we'll have to muddle through somehow..."

THIS DECEMBER spend your holidays in Paradise with eight Christmas (or Christmas adjacent) films that celebrate the highs and lows of the season. The Paradise Presents: THE GOLDEN DAYS OF YORE.

We are closing out December with two bittersweet films that capture the magic and the melancholy of the Yuletide. Starting at 5:00 PM with our presentation of the rarely screened British Drama- join us on December 18th for 1952's THE HOLLY AND THE IVY.

Martin (Ralph Richardson) is a widowed British reverend who knows his parishioners better than his own children. Martin's detachment from his family is never more evident than at Christmas, when the family comes together to celebrate. While Martin's daughter Jenny (Celia Johnson) lives at home out of devotion, she doesn't have the heart to tell him that she wants to move out. Martin's children struggle to hide family secrets during the emotional reunion that brings back memories of World War II.

Sunday December 18th, 5:00 PM/4:30 PM Doors
